Not necessarily. Having a reliable shooter at the one puts 3 possible long range shooters on the floor with Favors and Gobert. Faves isn't too shabby from midrange. Favors and Gobert worked just fine with Hill. Faves also helps relieve whatever defensive concern we might have with an undersized guard line.
Favors and Gobert worked with Hill? That's not how I remember it. Faves was hurt a lot that year, he only played in 50 games, started in 39, and only played 23 minutes a game. I remember Johnson and Diaw playing the majority of minutes at the 4 while Gobert was on the floor.
