Los Angeles Lakers: LeBron James starting at point guard is a good decision

Head coach Frank Vogel shut down the idea of the Los Angeles Lakers starting LeBron James at point guard, but it will be a good decision to start him there.

Now that the Lakers roster is forming and coming to place, LeBron should be dictating and orchestrating the offense. Throughout his career, LeBron has averaged 7.2 assists per game. Last season with the Lakers, he averaged 8.3 assists per game. This season, he could very well average double-digit assists per game.

The Lakers signed Danny Green, Alex Caruso, Troy Daniels, Quinn Cook, Kentavious Caldwell-Pope, Jared Dudley, and Avery Bradley, all players who can shoot the three-ball.
