Answer: They've wasted a decade on comboguards who will never sniff a finals.

Was it worth it?

If the titles in a decade are all won by different teams there are 10 different teams that win.

That makes it 20 who don't, barely a waste not winning a title.

In this decade 6 teams won so far.

None of them has made it to the conference finals even.

OKC made the finals in 2012, I guess 7 years ago is a decade nowadays. Were you in prison at the time?

Mediocre teams that need to either make a trade or blow it up entirely

The greatest comboguard of all time was Allen Iverson and all it led to was losing 4-1 in the finals in a historically weak conference.

Ball-dominant undersized scoring PGs have had their issues for sure. Generally because they require an enormous amount of lower percentage shots to succeed and get theirs.

And they don’t generally offer anything in the post and can only guard one position.

I don’t think AI is better than Russ necessarily though.
