RE: Billups as a 2 Guard?

The only problem is Kevin Johnson can shoot. Billups and Edney can't. Also we have Bowen & Mercer who are better athletes and shooters.

good idea. I'd think that would work in Rick's game plan too. Play him
and Tyus like the Suns are playing KJ + Kidd, and it could work out very
nicely.

Tyus = KJ
Billups = Kidd 

I like that game plan.
