SGs was not a premium position until Jordan

He spawned the age of those 6'6" super athletes on the perimeter.

That period is over now and its back to what it used to be.

Shoot first point guards and crappy number twos as landry fields

back in the 90's the 2 was more of a primary position then the 3, now its the other way around, u have players like durant, lebron, melo, pierce, rudy, ect who could play either the 2 or the 4 or both.


2 of the top 5 players in the league currently play the 3, I can't really think of any 3's who were top 5 players in the league in the jordan era maybe pippen.

This is what I was getting at.

I also think the-coli is overrating past SGs
