SL Game 3: Dallas Mavericks vs. Memphis Grizzlies | 6:00PM CST | ESPN

[Chicagojk]

I would hold off on any strong reactions to Nembhard's poor two games.   The one thing I am confident in is he can run a team and get teammates good looks.  It is what he does.  I think his trajectory is to eventually be a backup point guard who keeps the ship from sinking when he is on the floor.   I am not sure he is ready for that at this stage yet.   I think a guy like Collin Gillepsie is the blueprint.   Good college player, smaller, undrafted, bounce around for a few years, eventually hit.   

I do think there is a likelihood he may not be in the new front office vision moving forward.  We will see.  I believe he checks a lot of their marks.   Although , I think they view size and positional flexibility as important values.   I also think they want a team where 4 (or 5) guys can handle the ball on the court instead of one guy running an offense.    If so, Ryan is probably not their cup of tea.   Right now he is really not best served to play off the ball due to his size and streaky shot.   His success is built on getting others shots, good bball IQ, and low turnovers.
