Answer 1

It's depends on your ball handling and passing ...

Look at Magic .. playing Point Guard at 6'8-6'9  

Answer 2

You can't ask anyone who's never seen you play if you can switch to guard. But to give you some advice as to how you may be able to achieve that, like you mentioned, you're gonna need to do a lotta drills.

Ballhandling and dribbling drills - figure 8's, hard dribbles, high/lows, Side V's, in and out, crossovers, double crossovers, Zig Zags, speed dribbles, combos (b/w legs and cross-O, Behind back dribbles, TWO BALL DRIBBLES (VERY VERY GOOD to develop the weak hand), etc etc. You'll also need to do a lot of shooting drills. Shoot off the dribble. Catch and shoot, etc etc... There's  A LOT of drills out there. You can find them pretty much anywhere on the net but Youtube.com is a great source to see those drills. You do those on a regular basis and i Guarrantee you that you'll improve a great deal. Good Luck kid.

Oh ya, don't forgot passing drills.

LOL at Esreg for comparing him to Magic Johnson. Does he have a Magic Johnson fetish, cus he's always talking about him in every answer.
