    Great speed, bad skills, tbh.
    OUt of any of the guards I have seen his age (who could be a target due to not already being a star like a Kyrie for example or another young franchise's cornerstone PG), he has surprised me the most. He has potential to stand out with experience and good coaching. He's eclipsed Teague at times TBH, just Teague is more experienced. But I only watched a few Hawks games and I haven't looked at stats or anything like that. In the games I watched he was electric off the dribble and Spurs could use a guard like that unless you are thinking about any of the Celtics young guards. I am not sold on any of them either. Who do you like realistically by the way I don't consider Jimmer realistic.

    I consider Jimmer realistic. Dude can light it up. I'm not predicting it'll happen that way. I'm just not discounting the possibility. Jimmer has never consistently received 30 mpg plus. In the event he does, he can average 15 plus, which is better than what TP does right now.

    I am not going to argue your point since opinions and likes/dislikes are personal. I have not seen Jimmer play, but a lead guard must be able to execute Pop's defensive schemes. Parker has been a negative in that end but I don't think Pop like that at all. Drafting George Hill and CoJo kind of gives me an inkling whoever Pop ultimately chooses must have some hustle. Now Schroder is not some defensive ace that I know, but he's quick, athletic, and the hawks did very well with him in a kind of sixth man role. Regardless, my scenario is daydreaming. Jimmer is in town so he will get a chance to show what he's got.

    People forgetting that Tony's replacement is already on the roster tbh. And he's a white Mormon so he's not a threat to bang any teammates' wives.

    Parker is still our best PG by a good margin. Barring injury, he will be fine but the key is for him to stay healthy. There is no successor waiting in the wings this season. Sorry.

    It's so hard to tell who's bull ting with all these threads during these dog days for the NBA offseason, but I actually think this is an interesting topic. Tony is heading in the direction of Kevin Johnson (for those old enough to remember), who was super reliant on speed and from one day to the next found himself without it. It wasn't pretty.
    Kevin Johnson was on an other level compared to Tony. He was a big time playoff performer when he was healthy (ala Manu) & was also a complete point guard. He could have played a couple of more years as a game manager type point guard but he had too much pride & the Suns had Kidd/Nash.

    Conley would be nice but we'd be unable to afford him/fit him in under the cap. He's going to get paid somewhere.

    No thanks on Brandon Jennings. You want to find a player who -actually- fits in the "heroball chucker" mold Porker haters always claim about him? Look no further than Brandon Jennings. Career FG%: comfortably below 40%.

    Jeff Teague is an interesting choice though, but again I think money's gonna be a prob for us going forward.
    Teague is the most likely option b/c of Schroder (who is a more dynamic PG). Conley is most likely a lifer in the Grizz organization & Jenning was decent last season (most likely a fluke) but he raptured his achilles thus his future isn't any brighter than Tony's.

    It would be interesting to see what will happen to Derrick Rose when he's a free agent (seems like he wants a fresh start ala Deron Williams) if he manages to stay RELATIVELY healthy for a season. It would be worth taking a gamble on him since he could have a decent post-injury career ala Wade.

    In any case, Jrue Holiday is also another option if he doesn't re-sign w/ the Pelicans.

    Not really a fan of Teague, tbh, his game screams system player and playoff underperformer..

    Mike Conley has become a little overrated, too, after being one of the more underrated players in the NBA for year, as well..

    The blind PG hope has returned after Curry just led the Warriors to a le, but building around a PG is still a poor decision, tbh..Curry is a historically good player that had a legendary season, I doubt it will be replicated..a player that has to be double-teamed and trapped from 35-feet out is unheard of, especially at that position, it's an aberration..I'd rather utilize a role player-type at PG, an above average player, instead of a ball-dominant guy that the team has to consistently rely on to put up points and playmaking..

    Patty Mills should. I would want Conley if it was anyone else as a Spur.

    He shot 34.3 FG and scored 12.2 at Eurobasket. It's time to face the fact that it's not merely injuries. Mills and Jimmer are both better than that. Not McCallum though.

    I have seen a lot of Real Madrid's matches this year because Nocioni.
    Llul, Rodriguez and also Rudy, are good players but chokers. They normally play like in finals and difficult matches, that's why they couldn't win that tournament since 1995. RM won this year the Euroligue because they have Nocioni and Ayon, who played really well in heavy matches.

    Maybe TP can be shipped to Sacramento next year to take the place of Rondo.

    I think we found his replacement, though it might take 5 years to lure him here:http://www.tmz.com/2015/09/23/kyrie-...as-miss-texas/

    All we need to find is another point guard who can give us the following:

    1 FMVP
    2 top-6 MVP finishes
    4 top-12 MVP finishes
    Winningest player through 1,000 games in NBA history
    All-time leading playoff PG scorer

    Should be an easy replacement...
