When Jeremy Lin steps onto the Barclays Center floor as the Brooklyn Nets‘ starting point guard, his role will be similar to that of Goran Dragic’s with Miami. With the Charlotte Hornets, Lin spent time at both guard spots, but he was put on the floor to bring energy and score the ball. Dragic spent a majority of his time at point guard because of Dwyane Wade playing the two, but his light was just as green.
Dragic is a slashing guard to the fullest extent, much like Lin, and neither have fallen in love with the outside shot, despite the game becoming more perimeter-oriented.
