Point Guard Questions
Earlier today, Ivan pointed out that Dee Brown had his best game as a Wizard last night against the New Jersey Nets (8 points, 7 assists). With veteran Antonio Daniels still bothered by soreness in his right knee, who would you rather see in the starting lineup?

Antonio Daniels until Arenas is healthy.

Dee Brown...for about 20-25 per night. Daniels for the rest. And if you're going to play Brown (or McGee or anyone else that's not a vet yet) then let them make a mistake without yanking them. Give them a chance to prove that they can play through a mistake, or a chance to prove that they need to sit.

Whichever one manages to win two games in a row.

As far as "Someone else" goes ... what "someone else" is there?

Love AD and he's definitely an important part of this team, but I think he's always been more productive off the bench when he can come in and play full tilt. My vote for Dee (and I would assume the majority of the voters who voted for him) ABSOLUTELY does not mean I want him to fall out of the rotation, he needs to be on the court 20+ minutes per game. I just want Dee to get a chance to show what he's got.
Let's give the Dee Brown experiment a little time...

Let's not clog up the blog with polls. This isn't sports radio where you have to force topics. We come here to get information from Ivan.

hard to argue against Antionio, he brings leadership and dropped 2 3's a few nights ago but other than that I enjoy Dee's speed and hustle as he can bring down some boards so I voted for him

AD has been slowed greatly by his knee problems and isn't a threat from the outside either. Last year, he was a good floor general who kept the team organized on offense & was decent defensively. He's no more than a backup at this point in his career and Dee Brown is a change of pace guy to cover a small, quick PG.
Until we get a healthy (i.e. 80-90%) Gilbert Arenas in the lineup, PG will be a liability for the team. It's affected DSS the most who is rarely seeing open looks and has to be the backup PG at times.

Dee Brown, he can push the ball up the court.

Love Antonio, but this team needs to score in transition more and AD prefers to slow it down every time. We should use AD to close out 2nd and 4th quarters and make heady plays. Let Dee get the ball up and down the court the rest of the time. And if not Dee we always have Blatche to run point!
