I know Tyreke is more suited for SG, but why is him playing at the 3 such a horrible deal? He has height and quickness to match with both smaller and larger 3's.

Tyreke does not have the height to match the larger 3s. Evans was measured at 6'4". Durant was measured at 6'9". Lebron was 6'7.25" at the combine. That's just a quick taste.

ETA - All of the above are true heights (without shoes). Don't get me started. I've never seen anyone play in heels.

Seeing Tyreke's performance to end the season should prove Monty's inability to coach the 1-3 positions.

I'm not sure how this makes sense.

My point is Monty struggles most at rotations in those positions and honestly, I haven't really seen much guard improvement other than Vasquez in his time here.

Monty isn't a horrible coach, I just think he's best fit as an assistant rather than a head coach, unless he's got a transcendent player like CP3 at the 1.

In the end, I don't think the Pelican's roster issues at the 1-3 spot are as bad as some believe as far as talent and potential goes, but with Monty as coach it will never be realized and it makes it look way worse than it is.

Also, the hate Gordon gets on here is ridiculous. You'd think he's playing as bad as some other guys that got big contracts. Is he great? No. Is he a legit NBA starter? Yes. He's overpaid, but he's not horrid.

Monty's struggled with 2 Guards basically every year he's been with this team.
