All analysts and most impartial fans will tell you - Boogie is not a PG.

To say that the opposition the last 9 games weren't exponentially tougher is laughable at best,playing teams in a tournament (loser go home) as well as a FF team twice (on the road) is an extremely daunting task....I can't understand, for the life of me how some can diminish the magnitude of what we just witnessed just to prove their point..... (But celebrate emphatically)

Give Penny credence for finding a way to get Boogie rest, as there's practically noone to sub for him (Jayden)

Now, I have addressed this before, going to attempt to clarify even more, when Boogie is not hitting shots, he's not effective as he doesn't get assists argument....

Because Boogie is an offensive threat, defenses CAN'T cheat off of him.....Did anyone realize how irate Kalvin Sampson got when Boogie hit shots, I remember one of those games, he actually called a time out...

What this does is spread a defense thin,If your point person can shoot or score......What that also does, is create space as well as lanes for all of our other "playmakers" .....As a matter of fact....Our season dramatically improved when EffortLess began hitting shots....This is when the crescendo began......Before Boogie taking the rains, Lester's shot was rushed/hurried he was not in rhythm and was throwing up wild shots as the shot clock ran down.....

This is due the the inability for Lomax to keep defenses from sagging off of him and put tremendous pressure on our shooters as well as take away driving lanes.......Hence, even when Boogie is not scoring, there is still pressure on the defense to guard him (because he can go on a streak)....The prime example; Winning these tough games even when normal fans feel that Boogie isn't effective.....The others players have lanes as well as open looks.(opportunities to score) merely from his presence

I know I'm going to regret this, but...What in the world are you talking about?

No one is diminishing the competition down the stretch. And I love the shots that Boogie hit. What we are saying, along with Fraschilla and everyone else, is that Boogie is not a classic PG. If he was, we wouldn't have seen DJ and Deandre running more point than he was.

You are describing Boogie as a Shooting Guard.

I'm still waiting on some one to define the "classic PG". And then describe how'd that fits in the Memphis offense/defense scheme.
