Westphal's Final Lineup

[Kingsin07]

PG--Beno
SG--Tyreke
C-Spencer
SF-Greene
PF-Landry

I want to see how fluid Reke is moving without the ball and lets face it, he's getting tired as the season wears on and the ball movement isn't so great right now. Let him work on his shot a bit and develop his offensive game away from the basket...like C-Webb used to say....add one element to your game at a time.

Casspi, JT, Noc and Garcia.....and no more Udoka. That's your nine man rotation, which means Reke will have to play some point along with Garcia. In back to back games, perhaps a short stint from the new guys or Udoka and when foul trouble arises, May.

Right now thanks to getting rid of Sergio we need Beno off the bench for playmaking, plus he can do alot more for himself off the bench. So having him start with Tyreke would leave us playing Garcia off the bench at primarily the 1 when he clearly isn't that ready to ge tback to full time minutes.

did westphal announce this as his final line up?

I haven't read or heard that anywhere. I'm assuming that is an opinion.

 

[Sac.1989]

yep id say so, just like my opinion that we keep it as is with reke at the PG. He's been setting up team mates dam well of late

TYREKE IS A PG!!!! wow come on guys! get over it!

He needs to handle the ball! hes been improving on his passing all year!

Tyreke Evans says he's a "basketball player" - period. What position someone is penciled in at is less important than what position they guard. Reke can easily guard any 1,2, 3 listed players in the NBA - maybe even a few 4's. I notice a lot of people in the Kings organization refer to him as simply "lead guard" - obviously he's that!

Tyreke needs 3 main things to become a very successful player at the PG position.

1. Learn the pick and roll
2. Improve his midrange shot
3. Get management to surround him with more consistent outside shooters

Doesnt make any sense to put him on the SG position after letting him play the whole season as our PG.

For me he is definetly a PG.
As many said before he simply needs to improve his midrange shot and see the court better but beside´s of that i am more than happy with him on the point.

 

[sactownfan]

ok PG's dont all have to play the same style... some are all about passing, some are better at shooting... but the PG is a position and Tyreke play it!!!

he doesn't have to fit a mold or be steve nash.... he's the PG of the Kings and his name is Tyreke Evans! his speciality is destroying the other team with a layup clinic

1. Learn the pick and roll

Sure.

2. Improve his midrange shot

Absolutely.

3. Get management to surround him with more consistent outside shooters

Whoops!
