It’s just that every single minute of video you showed us was of him playing the 4, and you and I even agreed the other day (I thought) that this was his natural position. Maybe natural is not the right word, but it’s definitely the position he played in college.
I wasn't reacting in a contentious way. I just didn't understand your statement. Now I do.
I would say Bey played the 4 all throughout college no question. But I do not think it is his "natural" position. And I don't think that is what RC is saying either. By "natural" I think of having intuitive instincts for something that are deeply ingrained. I think Bey is just used to being a "big" in the last two years, but I see a ton of on court instincts that tell me that I think wing will be much more "natural" for him once he absorbs the position.
It could take years for Bey to develop, you may be totally right. I just personally think it will be quicker and I was encouraged by what I heard from RC and from Bey himself. We'll see I may be dead wrong on him.
