I dont think Ive ever seen this dude miss a single mid range shot. He needs to go to his mid range game more often. Hes a great three point shooter, but when thats not falling, expanding his mid range game would keep him going instead of making him passive.

I was thinking the same thing, he never seems to miss from midrange. I don’t think he should live there, but I do think he should be quicker to take the space the defense gives him.
Ultimately, I’m just looking forward to him coming back healthy.
Closing games out and defense needs to be the focus. Working on finishing at the rim needs to be improved.
Nah, he should get to the damn rim more often. He’s a super long PG that has the ability to penetrate and our closest thing to a “star”, aggressive stars are the ones that get foul calls in this league. He didn’t even try to get to the rim in the Boston series, when he got close he would do a 180 jump pass to no one. Plus he’s a great FT shooter. If he’s aggressive at the rim, we get more foul shots, we get teams in foul trouble and close the FT discrepancy, we get easy points. We can’t complain about foul shots, if our star won’t drive into the paint.
Midrange is fine, but he needs to drive and actually go for the layup. Our superstar doesn’t get superstar calls because he’s passing out under the rim for the 3 when in reality we’d be getting that most the time because he’d get a whistle for the And-1
