    That would be the best move that they could ever do. It would get Chris Webber(as if he needs to get more involved) MORE involved, as well as AI2, Korver... it'll feel better for the entire team offensively... and I bet it would atleast give them more energy to play more defense... just a thought..

    They moved AI to the two early this week, and put Ollie at the point...

    the only reason they traded snow was for money reason IMO.

    I like Kevin Ollie,he's like Eric Snow only not so big and he's able to hit a shot when needed.Just watched the game against the Bucks and Ollie showed great hustle on some plays

    No offense, but are 76er fans happy about this? Who did they put on the bench in order to make Ollie a starter?

    Ollie is the farthest thing from a scoring threat possible. Not all that great of a disher either, AI is having his best year even though the team is mediocre. I don't get this move.

    He isn't going to be a scorer obviously. Also, he's been impressive defensively in the time he's got.

    This team doesn't really need any scorers, we have enough in Iverson, Webber, and occasionally Iguodala or Korver. Plus, we have Salmons doing some scoring for us, especially when Iverson is out. Instead, Ollie is starting because of his hustle, defense, and occasionally hitting the open shot. The guy they demoted to the bench was Korver, but its not too big of a deal anyways, he's being used in the second unit for depth and he's getting enough minutes.

    Great point guard?? [​IMG]

    He was a decent compliment to Iverson and he could play some D. But I would hardly call Snow a 'great' point guard.

    Eric Snow is a great point guard. He's your ideal prototypical player for the position. He can control tempo, guard either backcourt position, and won't lose ball games for his team.

    Eric snow was the perfect compliment to AI. he always deffered to allen and he made up for allens gambling on defense. snow would always gaurd the best player on the other team, like how igoudala does now.

    Just think of a taller and better defensively Brevin Knight with slightly less passing ability.
