Message: [QUOTE="NineOneSeven, post: 1026916, member: 871"] Very true, I don't disagree. Those are also top 50 players of all time. Where did I contradict myself though? Some players are much better with the ball in their hands- I gave examples of Irving and Dion, because they can break their man down off the dribble and get to the rim via quickness/strength. I then gave examples of Cooney and Fair, guys who were much more effective in a catch and shoot role/playing off of others. Doesn't mean both parties shouldn't learn both ways, just that they are built better for one than the other. We saw what happened when Fair was ball dominant this year. I also think we need Cooney to develop some sort of dribble drive instead of a catch and shoot approach than burned him out last season. I haven't said that they SHOULDN'T learn multiple ways to contribute/learn the whole game. I agree with you there. [/QUOTE]
