re: Watching the offense, I'm convinced Reke will go off when he returns!

On a related topic, and it has been brought up before, but why not Jrue as SG? I saw some comments from last night about how Ish ran the offense like it's supposed to be run and Jrue is too slow and methodical. Why is everyone assuming that the long term vision doesn't include Tyreke and Jrue on the court at the same time? Demps tried to move Gordon both before and after he signed Tyreke. I think Tyreke is going to go HAM with the space Gentry's offense creates, that means Jrue doesn't have to run the offense. He's well suited to being a secondary creator capable of putting up 20/10 when needed but can affect a game just as much making the other team's star guard have an inefficient night.

I agree. Tyreke is best with the ball in his hands. I've said it many times, he's a matchup nightmare. Just have to deal with his occasional bully ball stuff.

I think their best lineup will be:

Davis
Anderson
Pondexter
Evans
Holiday

It has plenty of length defensively, and if Pondexter keeps his shooting rate from last season he isn't a (large) drop off offensively from Gordon.

It's something that makes a lot of sense.

Jrue can easily guard the best guard while hitting open shots that tyreke and even AD create.

The Jrue/Reke lineup did very well in the stats I've seen.
