"McM tells Roy he is the Leader" This is news?!

Tiny by vcubed on

Joe Freeman uses quite a bit of copy space in today's (March 12th) Oregonian that Coach McMillan told Roy that the Blazers "need a leader to start to emerge."  Apparently this is "news" that bears reporting -- why?

Roy has been a leader all year long; what will be different with him designated as THE leader?

Will this mean that he (Roy) will be playing more point guard minutes and, in general, have the ball in his hands all game rather than just the 4th quarter?  Who picks up the 2-guard minutes?  How much does Roy control who is on the floor with him?

Poll
Does designating Roy as THE team leader mean anything?
  • Yes, B-Roy will play more point guard and have a greater say who's at the 2-guard position.
  • Yes, but roles will not change that much.
  • No, just a coach getting the most out of his top player.
  • Yes, B-Roy will the THE point guard and control the ball from the opening tap.
