Who knows... with a little more time together we might have a Pit bull reincarnation.
Who would you go with, you did not say. Hunter? Ancient. No motor left. Yeah, he can still rally for some good stuff, but you better really watch his minutes. A defensive specialist, no more. Or do you like Flip Murray. Flip Murray played the point in highschool. So you want a highschool caliber point guard for the playoffs? Again, please let me know exactly who you want over a 4 year college player from a good program. Rookie or not, Blalock plays good D, can run the offense, can penetrate and dish consistently, and can even shoot if in he gets the in-game practice to get comfortable. By the way, was this your same take on Prince. Prince was another 4 year college player from a good program. Look, a lot of rookies these days do come straight out of highschool and give rookies in general a bad name. But like Prince, Blalock is ready. For a certainty, neither Hunter nor Murray ever will be ready to play point for us.
