[QUOTE="MidtownJacket, post: 215583, member: 959"] In general I share your frustration that we didn't have this switch sooner, mainly because I agree whole-heartedly this team is playing in the NCAAs and likely a Sweet 16 team, maybe with a few bounces our way an elite 8 squad. That said... I tend to agree with the idea that moving our SG (and the only offensive threat outside of the long ball from Smith)to PG is a risky proposition. I agree with the earlier post that the more ball handling a guy does the less he tends to have open shots, or freedom for off ball movement. This is why you have a PG + SG on the team.. it is not always (and maybe even fair to say less likely than likely) an easy transition for a guy to make. That MGH's game revolves around slashing drives and "making his own shot" helped, but I still think it is a bridge too far to say it was an obvious fix to our system. We have a couple young PGs on the roster, and need to DEVELOP them so it hurts us to take the double risk of interrupting MGH's game and missing the learning chance for the PGs.. That said, it worked, and worked well so I am happy the change was made. [/QUOTE]
