Batum was paid like an Allstar, but didn't deliver with his time in Charlotte due to inconsistent play and injuries. He is and was never a first or even second option. I'd think he'd thrive as a point forward like Iggy or to some extent KD with us, and don't force things too much. Our system is made to find open shooters and cutters through our motion offense.
If we don't get GRIII (Or sign both), then Batum should be next in line, as I don't see any reason to pass up on him as his value is way low right now.
Curry / Wanamaker /Mannion
Wiggins / Poole / GR3 / *Thompson
Oubre / Batum / Bazemore
Green / Paschall
Wiseman / Looney/ Chriss / Smiley
X-Factors:
1) 2nd year players (Poole and Paschall) elevated their game this offseason and avoid Sophmore Slump.
2) Invigorated Batum plugged into our system thrives.
