Kenny Atkinson continued his tour of sports talk radio Thursday, appearing with Alan Hahn and Rick DiPietro on ESPN Radio and Frank Isola and Mitch Lawrence on SiriusXM. For the most part, he hit on the same themes including a more extensive discussion of the point guard position ... and mentioned, for the first time, Shane Larkin's possibilities.
"I kinda compare it to --the way the league is now-- the importance of a point guard in the NBA I'd compare almost to the importance of a quarterback in the NFL," said Atkinson in response to a Hahn question about whether a point guard is a high priority for the franchise.
