I don't see any change there except he hit a few more 3s than he usually does. He's a career .325 3pt guy on over 300 attempts. That's not a huge sample, I'd prefer over 700 or so, but, it's a hell of a lot more than the 19 he took in the playoffs.
By my eye he is what he is. He hasn't shown me much improvement in the league and looks like a career backup. Could he be the next Crowder? Certainly. I just wouldn't want my team banking on it. I guess if the contract is cheap, ala Crowder, you can afford to take a chance, but, I don't want to pay the guy big money to see if he can keep shooting 3s at 58% like he did in the playoffs.
Whoever said to pay him big money? That's why I said "steal."
13mil per is big money to me.
