Dantoni has completely transformed Bill Walker into a designated jump shooter and that sh*t aint cool. I know the man has a style of play but if you have a multi talented player then you should maximize their full potential. It can't hurt! Dantoni did the same thing with Quentin Richardson. Q came into the league as a post up/slashing/long range shooting type guard and thrived in LA (even though they sucked). Q now starts for ORL and is allowed by SVG to incorporate his full skill set.
My purpose for creating this thread is also to get your opinion on Dantoni's "system".
Is it a system you can win a title with? IMO, no. Similar to last nights game, you can get away with running and shooting a high percentage of 3s occasionally but great teams will shut that down and you eventually have to incorporate a half court set into your offense. Also, that's not the ideal way to play in crunch time. Possessions are waaaaay more valuable at that point and it just looks stupid to hoist up a 3 when there's only a 4 pt difference in the game.
Thoughts?
