He is probably our best catch and shoot atm but man he is a cone on defense, it has been a problem for 2 seasons now, the worst part is he cant play small ball because he gets caught sleeping on defense or getting killed one vs one. Braun, lonnie walker and divincenzo had momentum buckets against him that changed the game, it is almost like they are hunting him on defense
Also he cant play next to harden, the defense get worse. It is almost we need to run russ next to norm while mann plays next to harden.
I respect norm and how great of a scorer he is, but we don’t need him anymore. If we have to depend on norm to score when we have kawhi pg harden and russ then we are cooked.
The only way for us to improve glaring issues and holes the team has is by trading valuable talent and norm is said talent.
