Like for instance at the (:57) mark in the video Evan gets the steal and AG runs the court with him, Hardaway bites down on Fournier leaving AG wide open for the alley-oop but Evan takes the contested layup. After the play, you can see AG tell Fournier to throw it up to him next time. Its just been things like that throughout the year that have come up. It's not that I feel that they don't like each other I think Evan is just having to learn how to treat AG as a legitimate cog in this offense now. Its been improving as the season has gone on though and I expect it to continue to.
With AG's ability to get to the rim and now a major threat from behind the arc, he's actually our most versatile off the ball player.
That play where Isaac flicks it to him in the corner was just beautiful. That, to me, is a hint of the kind of team work that will get this team running a Spurs-ish offense.
Fournier found him for a nice alley on one of those plays. An alley on that fast break would've been nice (Meeks would've made the pass, you know it!), but if Evan feels like he can get that shot, then I guess you let him complete it - and he did.
I just want to see AG continue to shoot well, and then learn to incorporate his handle into that once defenders start really biting down on him and respecting him as a scorer. Seeing the dramatic growth in him so far has me confident he can figure that out, too.
