Of the 15 players above FVV in assists, only 5 of them attempt less shots -- and they're mostly on teams playing with other stars (CP3 with Booker, Harden with Durant, Lowry with Butler+Bam and Green with Curry) with the only exception being Garland (who scores 1.3 PPG less while attempting 0.8 FGA less which is pretty comparable). Most of the 15 players above FVV in assists also have a higher average time of possession, average dribbles per touch and USG%.Tha Cynic wrote:Would Fred ever be happy having 15 assists and 8 points? The answer to this question is why this team needs someone else to handle the ball full-time.
He continues to show that he's a great shooter and defender, but he is not a good playmaker. The bad habit of not passing to the open player is rubbing off on the rest of the team now. No one except for Barnes, and Birch seem to like moving the ball.
FVV does not understand the concept of the hockey assist and the person who runs the team needs to have that. Let Fred focus on gunning like GTJ.
Before this string of 3 "poor playmaking" games, FVV was averaging 19.5/5/7 on 56 TS% with 3 TOV while also posting 1.0 secondary assists, 13.3 potential assists and 11.0 AST to pass %. Lowry -- who is averaging 12.5/5/7.5 on 56 TS% with 3 TOV -- is posting almost identical passing numbers (0.5 secondary assists, 14.9 potential assists, 11.7 AST to pass %) while playing with significantly better teammates.
The fact of the matter is that it's just difficult to get an offence going when you're playing with 2-3 G-League players for half of a game. That's the reason why FVV's assist numbers have fallen off a cliff the last three games. It doesn't help that Svi and Flynn have combined to shoot 5/21 on mostly wide open threes the last 2 games.
Y'all literally just make up the most random **** lol.

Sure Banton and Flynn as well as Svi and Boucher have been absolute ass the last month.
Still, there's one guy who seemingly can't get anyone to shoot 3's well.
