Hearing Jason Kidd may be thinking about replacing Knight with Giannis for good as the PG. Poor Brandon Knight. to me this is obviously scary because there is always the what if. What if he actually figures out his game and this becomes a good thing for the Bucks? 7 foot PG is a problem for sure.
But then again, its not like the guy has Kyrie handles. He has a great dribble for a player so tall, but if he were average PG height his handles wouldn't be special at all. He cant shoot at all. He does have nice vision and that length makes him able to physically throw any pass in basketball. He can also defend. Now can he defend great PGs?
In the game VS Cavs we saw him at point and in my opinion he did nothing special. I remember him having one great pass where he reached around a defender and fed a shooter but besides that his weaknesses were on full display. He over dribbled a lot just to bailout and make some weak wing pass, he cant shoot so every time I saw him with the ball nobody was within 3 feet of him if he was on the perimeter, and he wasn't really the factor on D that a near 7 footer with guard speed and agility should be.
If he could shoot from range then I say I would really be afraid of him at PG, but at this point he's a Rondo with slightly above average court vision, worse defense, and worse jumper, that's really tall.
