Re[4]: slightly different three way deal

[Ryan.Lee@parexel.com (Ryan Lee)]

Penny already is a natural 2 guard and yes he was being converted into a 1 by 
Brian Hill but it was Chuck Daly who wanted him to be more of a scorer and 
secured Derek Harper as the new point.

yeah, but he's turning into a 2 guard. so what if he was a point? you know 
everyone knows he wants to be a scorer. he just happens to be a good 
passer. thats all. he was one of the top 1s cuz he was forced into being a 
1 but all he really wanted was being an off guard. thats what they have 
shaw for then. you watch and see if they get him a decent pg, then you see 
more wonders.
     
GO GREEN!
