[QUOTE="orientalnc, post: 233261, member: 1199"] I apologize in advance for this post. But, This is interesting, as both of them were a lot better all round players last year than Lammers. Not to say Lammers won't continue to improve, but this comparison is naive if based purely on demonstrated ability. Especially when the other player that will have to fill one pair of those shoes is not really a 4, unless it's a guy who has never played at this level. Smith did for the team exactly what was asked of him, shoot the three. Clearly his shooting kept us in games and won games we lost in previous years under CBG. Jackson may yet be a better player, but I have not yet seen it. Neither player was an asset on defense. And Jackson can't shoot at Smith's level. Since Jorgy was hardly playing in the last half the season last year, that loss is negligible. So it will be Heath and Moore taking the place of Heath/MGH. Granted, Marcus was not a PG, but he filled that role when the team was actually having success. It is a stretch for me to see anyone coming close to filling the roles Marcus played last year. So, we will have a huge net loss at this position. It seems to me that we will have diminished talent/experience at every position. We may be an overall better shooting team if everyone plays to their potential. But that is where it ends. [/QUOTE]
