Thanks!

I would say having a good shooting guard is a great problem to have. I wonder how many assists Cal would want a game from Knight?

How best to use a good-shooting point guard. Let's see.

Let him shoot?

Then make sure he can shot-fake and blow by defenders or escape the double team. Because, unless I miss my guess, if he's a good shooter, defenders will probably try and stop him from shooting. Then make sure he can finish or find the open man. All the while getting everyone involved, attacking the weaknesses of the particular defense, setting the appropriate pace and generally leading the team on the floor. That's all.

Coaching from a keyboard is so easy!
