2021-2022 ROSTER TALK: [ARCHIVED]

That argument could be more about fit.  They want a pure point guard and Ball does not fit that bill.  He actually fits much better next to Luka (who will obviously do much of the point guard heavy lifting).

Just really strange how the definition of a true PG has changed over the years. I would argue that Ball is the closest thing to some of the old school floor generals of the early 2000s. But he isn´t the modern day high volume/usage primary ballhandler.
I wonder if guys like TMac and Kobe would be viewed as PGs these days. They had similar on ball creation rates and assist numbers as current PGs like Walker or Morant.
