Pitino said: Modern basketball no longer has pure point guard

Basketball

NCAA famous coach Rick Pitino was interviewed by the media and said bluntly that there is no pure point guard in modern basketball.

Pitino said: "There is no pure point guard now. If you can find one, he is likely to be a guy who can't shoot. Look at the Knicks, Lakers, Celtics, Thunder, who is their point guard? The point guard position has completely disappeared. The John Stockton era has long gone, and the last pure point guard may be Chris Paul."

Then a reporter asked what position Brunson should be in the Knicks. Pitino replied: "He is a double-scoring guard who can score. He doesn't think he is playing for assists. In contrast, he may be scoring first. Thank God, thanks to God, he is such a player." The St. John's team currently coached by Pitino builds a lineup based on height, mobility and versatility, and no longer relies on the traditional on-field commander. Pitino highly advocates a way of playing without a single player in control of the ball.
