Whether or not Goodwin truly has the potential to be a PG in the NBA is immaterial. Same goes for whether or not he's as good as Marcus Smart. What matters is if he actually believes playing the 1 is his best route. FWIW, it's hard to argue that wouldn't be his best chance, and anyone who thinks Goodwin is simply going to accept his chances are slim and it isn't worth pursuing isn't thinking straight. It's easy to see how that alone could put us neck and neck with SLU.
