Some of the discussions in other threads got me to thinking about the PG position.
Some guards get called combo guards, some point guards, some shooting guards, but maybe there is another guard posotion, Lead guard!
Some guards lead their team from the 2 spot (Kobe, Harden), but are not considered the team's pg, nor are they labelled the dreaded combo guard. Some do this from the PG spot, (Westbrook, Irving).
We have seen the term "score first PG" used, but maybe Lead Guard fits better, the ball is in the lead guards hands more than it is not, and if they can score, they do it, but they also set the offense and find teammates on a regualr basis. Thoughts?
