and before McDonough was fired he was trying to get a PG so we'll see what they do with the new boss

I'm skeptical of Booker at PG. Just don't think he has handles like that but it's also not a bad thing to give him the ball and ask him to make plays

Should help his development
I'm with you on that one. i just feel he isn't so good setting up teammates, and he'll really have to improve in that aspect.

But bro i feel like the same was said about harden

That he doesnt the handles. But they both do it differently. As long as he gets the pass smartly from a to b, without much turnovers, he’ll be fine

Booker needs to be ready for this challenge

the thing with harden is that he's always been unselfish and he's been primary handler longer than Booker

James was doing it in college

Its too early to say that Booker is selfish though

I wouldnt call him selfish but i wouldnt call him unselfish either

Maybe playing pg would make him be more unselfish than selfish

Yeah I think Booker will be forced to make plays for guys more often now, and he'll grow his game to incorporate that. May have some growing pains but I think he'll end up being decent. Or they'll bring in a PG haha

Im not sure yet if he can be like Harden

But he can definitely be one of those scoring playmakers like Kobe or MJ were

Scoring when needed, playmaking when needed

I think he’ll be ready for the challenge

I'd be surprised if he didn't, unless they play someone easy, then yeah could maybe sit out

So much hate on the celtics haha. Bucks jumping to 3 would be pretty crazy, but the other 3 will be in the top 3 in some order.
 
76ers vs Celtics tomorrow. Should be fun.
