I don't understand...So how exactly those so called balanced players gona help in inside game and basicly we should make a SF team.
What about mighty avengers two nt level centers and nt level pg still can't win a game...so what players you must have to win in inside game???Two Cardenas and a 200k salary pg??? The balanced players debate is crap imo,although i agree on balanced sf's,but other positions is a waste of time execpt passing on centers...Lets see on real life examples: Shaq is one of greatest centers of all time who still throws bricks outside of the painted area,same with Howard.But most of the centers were good passers,shaq avg.~3 assists,chamberlain even lead the league in assists.
Also pg is not most important man in inside game,but it seems it is in here after reading all those posts....
Parker doesn't need to give ball to Duncan when he's in perfect position to score since Duncan needs to get the ball near paint and does all the work in there...Same with shaq
All in all i don't think it's even worth discussing since it all comes down to "balanced" players or flow etc.
and yeah i always thought there was PG,SG,SF,PF,C for a reason to do his work on court,not SG doing C work or other way around etc.
But that is my philosophy or i just dont understand basketball at all now.
