Best way for me to evaluate a guard at any level is to watch them in Pick &Roll situations. Why?
1. I look to see if they have a “solution” for each coverage.
(They’ll see roughly 8 coverages in the NBA, 4 in college and 3 in high school.) @SteveNash
2. I look to see if they have the passing vision and basketball IQ to destroy the tag help. Can they make the cross-court corner pass like @Hali did in college?
3. Do they have the size, speed and quickness to handle traps?
4. Do they have the ball skills and agility to back up out of traps with the dribble? (Thank you, Bob Hurley)
5. Can they keep the defense guessing until the last possible moment to make a decision. @CP3@Huertas09
6. Can they score behind the screen, can I shoot the floater vs. “drop” coverage and can they finish at the rim?
