There's a the I'm too short to be a shooting guard so I'll pass the ball only when I can' get mt shot off or when my coach hounds me to pass the ball. They make me run the point only because I'm the best ball handler not because of my basketball IQ
The pure point guard wants to be a point guard and passes the ball to set up scorers to score and uses his scoring ability to keep defenders honest and as another option.
Point guards are like the quarterbacks of the team. Imagine if quarterbacks like Manning were like the first type of point guard and said I really wanna be a running back so I'll only throw the ball only when I can't run or when the coach makes me throw it.
Most points I see in the city are like the first type. Very few are pure point guard.
