re: Would a starting lineup with Tyreke at PG and Jrue at SG work?

It matters less the "title" of PG and SG. It matters more that they would probably play well off of each other. Holiday at PG and Evans at SG would yield identical results as Holiday will inevitably guard the shorter guy and Evans will guard the taller guy on defense. On offense, however, Evans driving ability certainly opens up Holiday's 3 point shot, or when the defense doesn't cheat, Holiday's ability to drive the lane himself on the kickout and go for the floater or to the rim. EG+Holiday was far inferior to Tyreke+Jrue in the advanced statistics. The team spaces better with and Jrue has more room to operate with a true slash fiend like Tyreke on the floor. EG just doesn't bring that unstoppability on the drive like Evans does
