Of course, when you are playing 30 mpg and taking more shots you might make a couple more. Every time he drives to the basket and scores this board starts talking about his improvement. The bar is so low that if he doesn't look totally inept he is suddenly showing signs of ...well, I'm not sure what.

Lost on offense, can't shoot, generally lost on defensive schemes and rotations, average one-on-one defense.

No thanks.I honestly feel bad about it for him, but no thanks.


Hey, he's still better than Kirk Hinrich (9.0 PER vs. Kirk's 7.2) :dontknow:

I guess if you accept PER as an indicator of who the best player is you can make that assumption. IMHO it is a misuse of the stat, misguided, and brings you to a completely erroneous assumption. But that's just me.

I'd trade him. Put him in a more relaxed situation, and I think he'll do better.

He doesn't look comfortable, probably isn't comfortable (with Thibs and this team's expectations), and in general would benefit from a team atmosphere which is more loose and thinks less.

Then again, our whole team seems to be over-thinking. Blah.

But I could see him either flaming out here, or going to another team and becoming a solid player.

Passed straight to him and it just hits him and rolls away, his arms just won't come up to catch the ball.

Odd bug but hilarious nonetheless.


It's the total opposite for me. Just played a game vs Detroit and the coach actually directed to run offense through Tony Snell! He made a couple wide-open 3's that I assisted and a tough contested jumper :lol:
