Jose is a better than average floor general and great shooter (!), but his playmaking was somewhat limited and his defense was far too often, atrocious.
Though not nearly the shooter that Jose is, Nelson's more well rounded game should pay dividends. (Crosses fingers)

One less responsibility off the table for Ellis, bodes well for the offense. Nelson being able to score from any point on the floor, opens up the lanes a bit more.
