    Default Kerr says Klay Thompson will be guarding power forward the entire year

    I don’t know how this will work to be honest. Seems pretty sketchy.

    How many PFs are there that bang hard in the paint? The Kenneth Faried/Kris Humphries/JJ Hickson types are nonexistent these days. Most 4s are just wings in today's league. Still, it's going to be an interesting concept.

    There will definitely be some teams that'll create serious mismatch issues. Minnesota, Denver, LA, NY, etc. Aaron Gordon would eat Klay Thompson alive if he tried to guard him.

    He couldn’t dominate JJ Barea in the post, let’s not get delusions of grandeur here.

    If they take advantage off it. I've seen teams pass up open layups for contested 3's.

    They must have really hated Poole because this is pointless. Chris Paul can't handle a starting player's work load and stay healthy. He's going to be a part time player going in and out of the starting line up and at the price of creating their own mismatch. They won't be able to handle big teams and won't get any rebounds. It's Paul really worth creating all of these built in flaws? He's not a superstar player anymore, he should be averaging 20 minutes resting on back to backs getting load managed all season in the hope that he can be healthy enough to lay for a postseason run. Instead he will likely be guarding the toughest guard while Thompson, Green, and (frequently) Curry will be takes with guarding ng a bigger player with no shot blocking behind them. Was never a fan of this year on paper and the way Paul is being used this is going to fail.
