Doc's Backup PG Plan
"That’s probably pretty much what we think we’ll do," Rivers said. "Tony will run the point off the bench. When him and Eddie are on the floor, he may have the ball more than Eddie. Tony will guard the 2, but the point will still guard Eddie, so that means the point won’t be guarding Tony and pressuring him."

No true back up point guard. Some say this is the new important position in the NBA (replacing center).
I question Tony’s decision making. That is my only fear with him playing point. He has good enough handle to bring the ball up.
I have a feeling the offense is going to run through Pierce most of the time anyways (almost a triangle-ish offense) where the pg doesn’t need to be the play maker.
Of course the down side of this is that Rondo isn’t the pg for a triangle-ish offense. Can’t wait to see how it works out.
