I'm starting to mentally prepare for this trade and I'm working on convincing myself that a lot of his problems are mental and situational. LA is a circus and I think he could benefit from a change environment, coaching, media, etc. The positive is its not that difficult to fix ft% for guards and we have a ton of good off ball cutters that never get passed to for easy buckets. Ball gets us an extra easy 8-10 pts that we aren't getting now. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Transition, lobs, cuts, movement are all things that should improve. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The problem is I'm not sure it resolves the crunch time scoring issue which is why I have him below other guys Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
magicblue 315 Report post Posted January 29, 2019 I don't disagree with any of that. I'm just concerned with his wretched shooting. Augustin to the bench improves that area of our team also Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

For comparison, Vuc and Fournier combined this season are 7/24 overall 0/8 on threes 12/21 on fts. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
