There are only TWO 50-40-90 players (50%+ FG%, 40%+ 3FG%, 90%+ FT%) in NBA Finals History, minimum 10 games played -- Kevin Durant and Samuel David Hauser.

Now we know why Brad Stevens didn't bother trading for KD.

Joe Mazzulla on Sam Hauser's defense: “I think he's a much better defender than people think. I can't say why or else I'll get in trouble.”

Better rebounder (and defender) than either Korver or Robinson in their 3rd year. Now looks like he's added that little dribble pullup from midrange when defender closes out on him.

Sammy's a swing, not a wing, but has always been a good rebounder.

Hauser spends more time guarding 1s to 3s than 4s and 5s. Almost always on the court with two teammates bigger than him. He's more of a wing to me, even in this positionless era.

Super impressed with Sam. Pro's pro. He's worked on his craft each year to get that contract, doesn't take it for granted and continues to work on his craft.

Agreed -- steady progress from UDFA to Gleague to regular season rotation player to 50/40/90 while locking Luka in the Finals? I don't know how high this guy's ceiling is, but I do know that I look forward to seeing him infuse his championship DNA into this team

Both of the dribble ones were pretty impressive.

I don't even wanna think about how many 3 point shots Hauser has gotten up over the years to practice enough to get this good at what he does.

Celtics and Lakers all. Mainly Celtics. :D

It took him a while to shake off the cobwebs, but Sam might be finally back.

Pritchard too. They're both clearly gym rats who have put a ton of hours in in the gym, and tons of shots up.
Nothing wrong with having a different opinion - as long as it's done respectfully. It'd be lame if we all agreed on everything :)
