    why is bron at SF such an adjustment? he logged plenty of minutes at the 3 spot last season. if anything, snow will be the one making an adjustment. hes a pretty streaky shooter. to me it would make more sense to have snow running the point and setting up j-mac and bron.

    Snow is in no way a SG,usally sg's are the players who can score and Eric Snow is not that type of player.Snow can hit the 15 foot J and penetrate at some times but thats almost it,he is not a three point threat at all.

    I am not discrediting Snow,I am a big fan of his.If he plays PG for the Cavs he could be a great player to run the offense and get Lebron the shots he needs.You can also count on this guy to stay healthy and play good defense and hustle every night.

They are shooting guards, and yet the best thing about them is their defense. Snow plays great defense and has size to play the shooting guard position. The stereotype that all SG's have to score is not true and should be done away with as soon as possible.

    I'm not sterotyping or anything.But the fact is the majority of the players in the NBA who play SG,are respected scorers.

    Not necessarily true. They can be defensive specialists. But then again Eric Snow doesnt have that big of a build plus he isnt an offensive player or a defensive player. I would like to see Snow, LeBron, Luke Jackson (I believe he can contribute being that I live in oregon so i've seen him play), Gooden, Ilgauskas. I think that would be a great Line up. But we'll have to see how it works out.

    Sure, I'd give you that, but do the Cavs need another scorer at shooting guard? James, Ilgauskas, Mcinnis and Gooden can all put points on the board, Snow wouldn't have to score 15 a night for the Cavs to win half their games. [​IMG]

    Yeah, I think that Snow will be able to put up at the most 10 points and 6+ assists and the cavs can win.

    I know,thats why Snow should be playing PG.I never said the Cavs need another sg who can score.

    Thats why you put Mcinnis who can score at SG, and Snow at PG.

    I know they can,but the point I am trying to make is most SG's in the leauge are not considered defensive specialists.

    Yeah yeah I know and I agree. I dont think Snow is cut out for SG though. I can see them facing alot of problems.

    I agree, LeBron.

    Snow is better if they put him at the point. I just am not sure how good he could do at the 4. He gets the ball to the right guy at the right time. McInnis is a way better shooter than Snow.

    Were definitely going to have a deep team this year that could be a top 5 team in the East.
