Post-Up PG's

[sammichoffate]

They're pretty much extinct now, but which PGs would dominate if they had good post-up games?

[fpliii]

WB looks pretty good with his back to the basket

[SugarHill]

Westbrook
Lowry

they like going in the post

Some guys still use their post game. Westbrook and Lowry have already been mentioned. Andre Miller does it, but he does everything old-school.

John Wall has started to post up this season. He did it a bit as a rookie, then cut it out of his game. He's been nice out of the post this season, but he hasn't done it enough for other teams to plan against it, and I think he's caught a few guys off guard because of that. If he has an advantage in the post, it's hard for a team to throw a double at him, because that's what he wants you to do so he can beat you with a pass.

But can they do this?

Does the Centers and PFs even post up anymore?

[SHAQisGOAT]

Westbrook, Lowry or even a guy like Livingston are legit post-up threats...

Andre Miller's still in the league and in his prime he was a major threat down-low, even only being 6'2.

Best ever are dudes like Magic, Penny, DJ (past his peak he was more of a PG), Payton, Big O, so on...

And post-game declined not just for PG's, simply overall. You just don't see players coming into the league equipped with a legit post-game as much as before.

Baron had a nice post game. Best in the NBA during his prime, imo, over Miller and Billups.

I feel like CP3 is underrated with his back to the basket. Seen him take bigger guards to school in the past couple years. Doesn't do it too often tho.

[blablabla]

Yeah it's not really in the offensive repertoire of most PGs nowadays because a couple years ago you had Billups,Miller, Cassell, Baron Davis, Tinsley and Deron.
Does Deron still post up ? Because i don't really watch Brooklyn

Yeah, CP3 post up. I haven't seen him done it too much recently, but I gott'a watch the Clips more. CP3 got good footwork.
