I'm not saying that Nellie didn't want 5 guys who could shoot the 3. He definitely did. It was his brilliant idea to counter Shaq, who would be rendered ineffective by having to guard a center out on the perimeter (and it worked brilliantly as we have been routing the Lakers ever since.)

What I am saying, is that if Nellie did have Jermaine O'Neil, one of the premier young post-players in the league, who can score, defend, and has a good mid-range shot, he would play him, even though he can't hit a three-pointer.
