He doesn't make a lot of appearances.
Going on TV always helps.
But that's the name where I wouldn't be doing a service to my friends in San Antonio if I didn't bring him up.
I have him as a point guard.
And to, to, to piggyback on your point, like we have to, we have to move the goalposts because the style of the game is changing.
And, you know, when Mark Jackson was the coach in Golden State, they ran a lot of traditional pick and roll and he sure as hell looked like a point guard back then.
Then Steve got there and now they're running through Bogut and Draymond and David Lee and his dribble handoffs and he's running circles and that really defined his career.
Um,
But I think of him as a point guard.
But the same thing I would say to Shea is just like, if we want to continue to compare point guards, we have to say that the definition is growing to include these type of guys.
Because you know who's not walking through that door is Mo Cheeks.
Mo Cheeks isn't walking through that door ever again.
We're never going to see the 6'1 guy who dribbles it up, initiates an action, dumps it down to Moses Malone, and there we go.
The game's different.
It's fine.
Luka's a guard.
I would just like to wish you and your family and your listeners in the house family a happy Thanksgiving.
Enjoy the football, some basketball in between football.
And thanks for having me on, Bill.
Kirk, what's your favorite side?
