If we can get some frontcourt production (points, rebounding, defense), then this team can become very dangerous.
I love the way that Baron plays with a swagger...something that has been missing from this team since Tim Hardaway was running the point.
Arguably (not saying I'd argue it), J-rich is better than Manu over the last 2 years and a healthy baron is better than parker.
Reality - Baron and JRich are the most talented backcourt and are now performing like it. This season they are the best backcourt so far, in games that JRich has played. The three guard lineup of Baron, JRich and Monta is probably the best three guard rotation their is right now
I wouldn't say baron and j-ric are a better back court than Kidd-VC
But I'd say it's between those two backcourts.
For the past two seasons, I've been saying Detroit and San Antonio's backcourts are over-rated and nobody listened to me. And now what? Manu is proving that he's a regular-season-choker (like I always said), best suited for the playoffs (and only the playoffs)... and Billips/Hamilton are falling apart now that the Larry Brown system is starting to collapse. With the same roster last year, Flip was able to tweak the gameplan... but still, use Brown's same overall philosophy. Now that Big Ben's outta the picture, Billips and Hamilton are starting to look like the fish out of water I knew they would. I totally called it.
New Jersey remains a hair in front of Golden State... but that will change the day Kidd starts showing his age (which could very well happen THIS season). When that happens, Golden State will have the most talented starting backcourt in the league.
Count on it. Maybe this time, someone will listen to me.
