– The Cleveland Cavaliers have one of the best point guard rotations in the NBA with the addition of Jarrett Jack. It is no secret that Kyrie Irving is one phenomenal, special player, and to have a guy like Jack backing him up when Irving takes a breather is bad news for their opponents. These two fast paced point guards will keep their defenders on their toes with their ability to create their own shot, as well as set up their teammates for an open basket.

Jarrett Jack really came into his own during last year’s playoffs when the Golden State Warriors stole the show against the Denver Nuggets. Throughout the 2013 Playoffs, Jack posted averages of 17.2 points, 4.7 assists, and 4.4 rebounds a game. Those are quite the statistics for a backup point guard. What jack did for Golden State and Stephen Curry, the Cavaliers and Mike Brown are hoping that Jack can do that same thing for Irving.

With an established star in Kyrie Irving, and a sixth man of the year candidate in Jack, the Cavaliers are among the NBA elite, when it comes to best point guard rotations.
