Message: [QUOTE="omniorange, post: 1861451, member: 636"] True. But I hope you don't think Gillon is another Ennis. He isn't. Probably the best pure point guard on the roster is Howard. Gillon's A/TO ratio in his two years at CSU is 1/1.95 and his average steal rate per game is .55 per game. I mention this not as a negative toward John Gillon, just as perspective that the bar Battle needs to exceed to potentially be the starting PG is a lot lower than if Ennis were on the team. Again, I like Gillon and what he can bring to the table, but I believe those assets might be better served alongside Chukwu (a shotblocker at center who can help hide his deficiencies on defense) and in terms of speeding up the pace the game off the bench. All of which won't matter if Battle proves to raw to function as CG with some point skills along the lines of G. Cheers, Neil [/QUOTE]
