Five Players, Eight Positions

5

Interesting article, college-focused, on how players who don't slot into traditional 1-5 positions are often undervalued. I feel it's relevant for Blazers fans because at least to some extent, Bayless is a D1-Scorer while Roy is a D2-Creator/Handler. This article also really demonstrates how on defense you have to fit roles because most other teams will fit those roles, but on offense you can switch things up because you have the initiative and are attacking.
