So who will be the Kings back-up point guard this season???
Let's assume (for the moment) that Mike Bibby will at least start the season as the Kings starting point guard. With Ronnie Price gone, who will be the back-up PG? At this point, we've got the undrafted rookie, Mustafa Shakur, and now the Kings have signed Orien Greene, who I think has 2 seasons of end-of-bench experience. (Don't know what happened with the expected Mike Wilks signing...) Yeah I know the standard line around here... 'No worries, the Kings have plenty of guys who can handle the ball.' Well, that works for the in-between minutes and the occasional game (missed by Bibby), but who will protect and distribute the ball for 30-35 minutes a game, night-after-night, if Bibby goes down? Douby? Cisco? Artest?
