Totally agree here.

Just because we don't have a pure PG doesn't mean the basketball IQ to pick up on what the defense gives you and the strengths of your teammates isn't there.

Just a basic play; Imagine, Lampkin has position/ an advantage on his man and you can just toss it into him and he can go to work in the post.  (Feel like we could have utilized Jesse more in this way too, but "we haven't fed the post in 10 years", OR was it more because teammates wouldn't feed him?)
hmm
Or he draws a double team while, guys are moving on the perimeter.
Dish out to Bell, Starling, Donnie, Chance?, Cuffe for an open look or to create something off the dribble.

I feel like a lot of people may be undervaluing Lampkin in the post, which will open up a lot for the rest of the offense.

Some players might need work on moving off the ball/shooting off the dribble/PNR, or on the defensive end, but that's what practice/position work/ buying into Red's vision is for.

And obviously yes, in an ideal world, having a pure PG, and another high percentage 3 pt shooter and ball handler at SF would be nice..
