It has been well noted on Denver radio stations that JR doesn't like AI. I still don't think AI should be point over Blake. We need Blake to set everybody up and shoot only when he is open, AI is more of a scoring point guard which we don't need given our style of play. AI fits better as a shooting guard on this team.

He passed down to Melo/Nene even more then he should have in some cases and next season with a full training camp he get even more use to his guys so he would trust them even more. It's not Philly were he can't trust the guys, and he still got 7 assists a game with guys he could not trust in Philly. I think after a training camp they should let him run it and if they see it does not work then they let Blake do it if they keep him. But I think AI can get it down, and they should atleast give him a try in training camp, and when season starts after the training camp. I think he will do great people really don't give him enough credit as a passer.With him having to score less with Melo now I think he can average 25/9 next season if he is giving the full time PG duties after a full training camp together. Maybe a few less points 23, but some were around there in points.
Then again, both AI and Blake are point guards. So it doesn't matter where you put them. There have been situations where the raptors used Tj Ford and Calderon at the same time. It just means you'll have an extra passer on the floor. plus both of them are capable of shooting.

If only he can get bettter on D he has active hands he can get steals he can put pressure on guys he is taller then Blake if only he just got better at D.I just don't think it is better to start Blake next to AI size advantage to other team easy.
