So, you say you want a point guard...

As the days pass, the issue of the backup PG spot has been talked about time and time again. And, the truth is, there is a pretty good sized hole in the backup PG spot. While I'm not one of the Cut Goran Dragic-ites, the youngster needs more time to develop. And, though the Suns are currently winning, the D'Antoni quote says it all.

So...with a few options put on the table, let's hear it from you.

Well I am one of the cut-Dragicites

I don’t know what happened with the Sun’s scouting department. Maybe a Chicago style bribe, but this kid just wasn’t ready for the big show. Should have waited until he was 27 a la Manu Genobli. He might be good someday, but he’s terrible now. Best stick with the point by committee arrangement for the foreseeable future.

whaa happen?

Belive in the KID!

Dragic needs the time to develop and of course the minutes to begin this process. Maybe he could be a diamond in the rough if he could slow down, take his time and quit playing likes it a p/u game @ the Y. Small flashes of what he should do as PG when he is on the court could blossom into the butterfly that he should become. Obviously Kerr and Co. seen something in him to buy him out and bring him over. Have hope and patience. But, how many time as a Suns fan have you heard that?
