So in terms of OG, found it interesting in Will Lou’s pod last night that unlike Pascal/Scottie who have to mostly create their own shot, the majority of OG’s offensive looks are spoonfed and he’s still struggling offensively.
This brings up a question of whether the contract he wants is ultimately the best thing for this franchise going forward.
He’s shooting 40% from 3 while covering the opposing team’s best player night in and night out.
I don’t understand why anyone would expect him to do more. We don’t need him to create off the dribble. He shoots 3s, which we need, and occasionally cuts to the basket for a dunk.
I’ve actually been surprised by the improvement in his little side step midrange shot, but nothing else needs to be a serious part of his game. He’s the best in the league at 3-D, plain and simple.
