Bowden. I don't know that id call him a liability.... But I struggle sometimes finding what value he adds.

He has had some good moments but definitely fails to show up regularly. If Lamonte wasn’t hurt, Bowden wouldn’t even be the first man off the bench.

Good point.

I'm not mad at him or anything. But this team only lacks that spot up shooter that can hit in transition or in pick and pop situations. That's the role Bowden could be, but isn't.

Bowden is the primary guy that replaces Pons. Yea he gets some minutes at PG now and won't when Turner gets back but he is going to be the guy that finishes most games at 2 instead of Pons.

Houston is the only one I can see an argument for and he didn't win enough to top williams imo


Williams does so much more than score and that means a lot to me

Houston was a great player unfortunate enough to play on bad teams(coached by his dad). A lot of how a player appears is determined by the players around him. After all, it's a team sport.

Am I the only one that feels Pons needs to drive to the basket more? He’s so athletic.

He is but he doesn't always exhibit the control needed to put the ball in his hands more as a shot creator. He's better than last year for sure.

His value is on defense and in transition in offense.

Oh yea I agree.
I'll say this in response.
Williams makes all the players around him better as well.

Pons has that incredible athletic ability that very few are born with. If he keeps working on his shot and playing under control, he has Pippen-like ability. Meaning he can play 4 positions on offense and defense. Not saying he will BE Pippen, but growing up a Bulls fan, Pip could guard anybody and score from anywhere. A lot like Iguodola. (sp)

Yes, with more experience, game should slow down for him, & he should get better at control.
