On this episode of the The Celtics PRIDE podcast, the guys briefly ponder whether Marcus Smart has lost a step, in light of the news he failed to make the All-Defense Team. Then, they take a deep look at the “Kemba Walker Conundrum” and explore whether team building oriented around small point guards is simply doomed to fail.
Adam shares his small point guard hypothesis and asks Mike and Josh to weigh-in, before revealing what he found when he dug into existing research on this very question. Josh and Mike share their perspectives, understanding of the research, and core basketball beliefs, as the crew ultimately looks at the implications for Adam’s question on Brad Stevens’ upcoming decisions heading into the offseason.
