Value of a good point guard

[Packfill]

I am probably just overstating the obvious, but the recent 4 game losing streak of the Phoenix Suns without Steve Nash is the perfect example of how valuable a good point guard/distributer can be to a team.

Nash sets the tone for that team by being the on-court QB distributing the ball, getting others involved and generally controlling tempo. Without him Phoenix is a much different team - and a beatable one at that.

The Hawks need their Nash. Whether it be Paul or Felton or whomever, I think this should be Billy's focus. Fortunately, the Hawks futility this season is putting them in position to get a high pick in what appears to be a point guard rich draft.
