JJ and Cope are guys who can play some PG but are not ideally starting PG on a very good team. Cope could develop into a pretty solid PG, but my preference would be to develop him into a really versatile 3 who plays like 15-20 minutes at the 3 and 10-15 at the 1. A point SF who can drive past the bigger opponents, shoot like 33-35% from 3 if left open, and distribute to the bigs when he gets inside.

If I were Red, I'd be starting him at PG right now, but my long term goal would not be for him to be the starting PG.

JJ is ideally splitting minutes between the 1 and 2. Perfect world, we bring in a true PG and JJ and Cope spell him, depending on opponents - good matchup for Cope at the 3, JJ backs up point. If not, JJ stays at the 2 and Cope backs up the point.

Versatility is a strength in many ways, but just because we have two guys who *can* play the point doesn't mean we're fine at the point and shouldn't try to get an upgrade there.

I left Westry out because the jury is still out.
