Jet was only point guard in his first years here. During the run to the first finals, we were losing until The Little General put the ball into Devin's hands. His drives past Tony Parker is what opened things up to give Jet room to operate on the outside.
Today's Mavs have Rondo (and off the bench, Devin) driving and kicking, and Monta Ellis is the Jason Terry role.
In spite of the growing pains, I'm very excited to have a point guard who can run the break, guard a quick opponent, see the court and make the impossible pass. All Nelson was good for was standing in the corner, unguarded, hoping to hit a 3. Breaking in a new point guard is hard, because his play effects everyone else. I can't wait until this all gets into sync. But as they say in Jamaica, when you've been waiting 30 minutes for that cup of Blue Mountain Coffee, "No problem, mon...soon come."
