How is my Pick 2 team?

[StartOrien]

I google image searched Mo Williams:

How did I miss this?

That's going to make for some interesting team chemistry on the Fake Blazers, at least.

"Gentleman, I think there's some fences to mend. And unfortunately... I think it's going to take more than 140 characters.... Applebees?"

Jokes aside, if I'm Portland I'm pretty nervous about the point guard position. Don't know if I'd feel too secure with Mo Williams, Barea and I guess Meeks in emergency running that offense.

See with Wes Matthews there too, and Tayshaun Prince, having JJ Barea run that offense with Jodie Meeks spotting them doesn't concern me that much. This'll be a slow down half-court team a lot of the time, and while I like Mo Williams the least in the starting lineup..I don't think he's as much a limiting factor as say Joakim Noah's absence is in Utah.

Still, I don't know how any of these guys respond to a good half court press. Sending pressue their way could really cause for some easy buskets on the other side.

I think maybe you have the wrong impression of JJ Barea.

He's not a starting caliber pg for a good team..he's not going to pilot any ships to titletown.. but he is fully capable of starting for a prolonged amount of time while the true point gets healthy.

JJ Barea's assist ratio is right in line with Chauncey Billups', he's got the same turnover ratio as Kyle Lowry. He's not great but he's not bad..ideal backup, but poor starter.

I'd say his handle is somewhere between Nate & Eddie House.

I think you're short-selling his handles there. He's fully capable to running an offense.

he looked pretty darn good running against the C's recently.  almost picked him myself as my team's backup PG just off that recent showing.

[Who]

JJ Barea is an average backup PG. A solid offensive player but a limited defender.

Jodie Meeks is one of the weakest backup two guards in the NBA. Chris Douglas Roberts is one of the weakest backup small forwards in the NBA.

Ersan Ilyasova and Jeff Foster are amongst the finest backup players at their respective position(s) in the Pick II draft.

Meeks is a good jump shooter but an atrocious defensive player and rebounder.

What's wrong with Jodie Meeks?

Meeks is a good jump shooter but an atrocious defensive player and rebounder.

So if he's a 40% shooter from the field (not great), but a 40% shooter from 3 too, and has good scoring touch, I don't see how he's one of the worst backups in the NBA.

Quality third stringer.

[Who]

Here is a list of backup two guards in the Pick II draft

Marcus Thornton, Tony Allen, Christian Eyenga, Sam Young, Raja Bell, OJ Mayo, Rasual Butler, Marco Belinelli, Ben Gordon, Mickael Pietrus, Martell Webster, Delonte West, Wes Johnson, Anthony Parker, Pooh Jeter, Leandro Barbosa, Paul George, Brandon Rush, Gary Neal, Courtney Lee, Anthony Morrow, Rudy Fernandez, Marquis Daniels, DeShawn Stevenson, Willie Green, Jodie Meeks, Andre Miller, Kyle Korver

Where does Jodie Meeks rank amongst those players?

I rate him towards the bottom.
