I think your argument is better applied to guys like John Collins, Marvin Bagley and Evan Mobley.
Wait what has he shot on his career on the 3ball and at what volume in the playoffs and what is his free throw rate? There’s the answer. He can get twenty but he can’t break a game open of its entirety.
Teams are looking for the Klay Thompson approach a player that can bomb 7 threes with zero setup it’s a GOAT lvl offset because it requires Zero setup time. Or are looking for heavy usage wing scoring types that can carry an offense. That’s for offense, defense again different story.
Watch Hunter/Huerter is just a more valuable in the end as a third option. Bomb threes, pass, defend man on man or perimeter. Simple but devastatingly effective imo because off the drag on the openings on defense. Already comprised with the two top threats, a Reggie Miller esque as a third just cuts teams up so quickly. Mitchell/Conley for the breakdown then bomb away and have Rudy for easy points.
Harris isn’t a positive perimeter defender that’s bad news bears nowadays.
The 3ball is super broken when there’s space and no team left currently is a defensive juggernaut that can choke the excess down.
It’s a super stack analytic pour on, Harris hasn’t shown me that it’s not in his game.
Big Bogi is getting 1.39 PPP returns on the his 3ball and at volume.
Harris does not score at an incredibly rate at anything. We do tend to overrate the players we have. Actually look at his game
Better yet look at our top 3’s overall offensive game they all have fatal flaws (Embiid soak clock 15+ secs contested/turnover 2’s,Harris low FT non threatening scorer/shooter too much setup not good enough as a shooting/creating threat, Ben zero threat in halfcourt).
CJ is 100% the better fit over Harris it allows Ben/Green/Thybulle as the perimeter defensive options basically all times.
Harris should be at 0% on the outside. Dude guarded Trae that’s asking for free points.
The Meta now is highly focused on % returns. Team of 5 that’s maxed out on complimentary skillsets. CJ legit has the second best skillset for us overall. At one being Damian Lillard.
