http://www.blazersedge.com/2008/11/4/653849/tom-penn-s-black-eye-will I talked with Coach briefly about how things are progressing at the 1. One thing I have noticed about Nate is that he is always very careful to back his point guards. This was most obvious with Jack last year but noticeable already this year as well. Generally Nate backs all of his players, but I sense that he is even more careful to do so with point guards. I asked simply, "How would you assess the point guard play after 3 games?" and Nate gave me a look like he was kind of surprised I was asking that. He said, all things considered, it was pretty solid. Nate had talked earlier about how Brandon faced very tough matchups in the first 3 games and I asked whether he thought Blake had it even tougher than Brandon. Nate agreed that Blake probably had it as bad or worse than Brandon, facing Fischer, Parker and Nash -- and, importantly, 3 well-oiled offensive systems. Areas for the point guards to work on are "controlling the ball" and "working on establishing the role of the point guard in the offense." It's a little bit unclear to me what he means by the second point. Does he want a more proactive point guard that doesn't just turn things over to Brandon? Does he simply want better ball movement, something that a point guard can help develop? Something else? It wasn't clear. Nate said that it's still "very early" and, with new faces on the roster, they still need "to learn about each other." Roster turnover is arguably trickiest for the point guard to deal with. He needs to catalogue his teammates' tendencies, where they like the ball, when they like the ball, where they will float to, how they will run through picks. In my opinion, Blake has not looked good, at all, but perhaps roster turnover provides an explanation. I asked Nate about how the backup spot is evolving. He backed Sergio. I asked him how fans should read Sergio's variable playing time. Nate went back to the idea that it's early and he's taking a look at different groups of players. I asked him about what the ideal role for a backup point guard will be this season, when we face off against playoff teams down the stretch and Martell is back healthy. Nate said pretty flatly "10 minutes" and that his priorities are continuity/consistency in the starting lineup, plenty of minutes for Rudy, and plenty of minutes for Travis. Bad news for Bayless. Not great news for Sergio. -- Nate想的果然跟我相反，養新人PG那麼在意失誤，那難怪Sergio和Bayless 打球都這麼小心翼翼，這樣會扼殺他們的活力的 -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc) ◆ From: 221.169.172.177
