Glad you mention Brandon Jennings because he's just another player who Satoransky couldn't beat outright and steal minutes from being an elite European talent and all.

Trey Burke, Brandon Jennings, and Tim Frazier (who is just as serviceable as Satoransky), these are the players Satoransky was stuck behind?

Dear god... So Scott Brooks being a poor coach/talent elevator somehow falls on Sato.
You realize every team in the league passed on draymond right? I mean, he couldnt even get drafted in the 1st round. That should tell you right there hes not a good player. Its obvious to me now

Are you suggesting that Satoransky may be a Draymond Green-like talent being hidden by Scott Brooks' 'inability' to see off-the- chart talent when it's right in his face?

Ha ha! Attribute Satoransky's lack of PT to anything or anybody but Satoransky's own lack of elite talent.

By the way, he ain't cut from the same cloth as Ginobili or even Mirotic for that matter.

Wall has gone from an 80% free-throw shooter to a 70% free throw shooter. His points scored by free throws have gone down from 7.3 to 6.4. That is almost one point less per game for the team because Wall is now a poor free-throw shooter.

His two-point field goals are down from 48% to 44%.

His PER is down from his career-best 23.1 to 19.4.

WS/48 is down from .149 to .114.

His points per 100 possessions or down from 31 to 27.

Right now last year looks like the aberration or outlier. The improvements he had made are gone. Last year it appeared as if his performance was going to match up to the contract that he signed.

Now it does not.

Wall has been a 78%-80% free throw shooter the last five seasons. I think this season should be considered the aberration or outlier, not last season. Wallstar's FT shooting will improve and I suspect so will many of the other #s that you cite.

The free-throw shooting is just part of it. His field goal shooting went up last year and now it's back to career level.

My only concern with John Wall is the condition of his knees. He still goes up for dunks. He is still fast. However, I'm not confident that he will stay healthy. In fact I rather doubt he will.

I think he is playing hurt right now.

Satoransky is shooting 37% from 3, while Meeks is shooting just 30% from 3.

Although since Wall has returned Sato is only shooting 22 percent from 3. Even though he's struggling, I hope Satoransky keeps firing away; he appeared a bit tentative against the Hawks even though he had open looks.
