Mr. LaVine will not be "a major prospect for the 2014 NBA Draft", not like the way he has been playing. It was a big embarrassment for the UCLA program. Ucla90024 (talk) 23:38, 11 March 2014 (UTC)Reply

It seems editors keep cycling LaVine's position. He was listed as SG in college, and basketball-reference lists him as PG so far.[1] Some editors change to SG / PG, while others change it to plain ol' Guard. If we don't consider him a PG, I'd suggest to not list him as plain "Guard", I'd suggest to list PG/ SG instead. Editors will just keep changing it to be more specific, so using the generic form just makes for a slow edit war. If we just list PG, at least we can fall back that it is verifiable. Whatever is decided, it's better to just discuss it and refer to whatever consensus is here than to endlessly change it.—Bagumba (talk) 00:21, 12 August 2015 (UTC)Reply
When a player is a shooting guard and a point guard, or if a player's position isn't clear cut, I think it's best to say guard (or forward, whatever the case may be). It's simpler, accurate, and avoids a debate (or so you'd think). It's not like "guard" is wrong; it includes both guard positions. Then again, "point guard / shooting guard" or "shooting guard / point guard" isn't wrong either, and there's no problems with it in this situation. It's a dumb thing to debate I think, seeing as they mean the same thing. Then again, I think a lot of things are pointless to debate. —DangerousJXD (talk) 04:31, 12 August 2015 (UTC)Reply
One could argue that "guard" is ambiguous, and not succinct. As far as LaVine goes, does anyone consider him a SG. If so, are there reliable sources?—Bagumba (talk) 05:16, 12 August 2015 (UTC)Reply

On the 2016-17 season, it says "On December 23...in a 109-105 win against the Minnesota Timberwolves." This is wrong because you can't win against yourself. What actually happened on that date was a 109-105 loss against the Sacramento Kings. 73.65.226.228 (talk) 01:27, 12 April 2017 (UTC)Reply
