Indiana Pacers head coach Rick Carlisle expects Andrew Nembhard to be the primary creator and guard the opposition’s best scorer every night as the team's starting point guard for a season. That is way too much for one player, and this could greatly backfire.
"One of our luxuries, superpowers, I guess, was that Andrew Nembhard could start as a two guard, play off the ball, be a primary ball-handler as a secondary ball-handler, and guard the best perimeter player. So now, he'll be starting, he'll be the primary playmaker, and probably still have the responsibility of guarding the best player.
