Message: [QUOTE="jordoo, post: 1039752, member: 569"] I understand that but Stevie was guard height playing as a 3 or a guard and other than shooting jumpers he was highly skilled to go with his superior athletic ability. Jones does not have these same skills to bolster his athletic ability even though he has a few inches on Stevie. Playing a wing or perimeter position on offense you still need certain skills to be able to utilize your athletic superiority especially if you are not a good shooter. Stevie was one of the most talented one/two dribble drivers of the basketball I have ever seen. He often dribbled once, changed direction twice and was at the rim dunking which is not just skills and talent its basketball smarts and instinctive understanding of space and where the moving people in that space will be.
