I can live with him playing off the ball in that system....where he is the first or second option... But if he is just gonna stand on the wing or in the corner and before option 3 ...then yoy move him now because he will only lose value  Now i will say this…Last night even off the ball they did a great jump at running Bk off od screens, and in transition he was the first option….

The competitive vindictive scorer that can go off when needed and kill in the clutch.  He's just not a pg at this point. More consistently plays a shooting guards game. If he can pick up some things from coach Calderon, then maybe he will be consistent at pg in a few years. But for now he's a scorer, and a very valuable player to keep.
