Also considering since his rough start adjusting to this new team in his last 34 games he is 16ppg on 47% shooting. That would indicate that when this thread was made he has improved, boosting his season total to 45% and 15ppg, which everyone outside of you seems to acknowledge. I don't know what more ur wanting from the third option and he hasn't been a liability on defense he hasn't been "jacking up shots" to boost his ppg he is simply doing what a third option does and outside of dirk and tyson is our best off ball player in the starting lineup with how he spreads the floor. The other two options in free agency were ariza and deng. Ariza is a better defender but has a VERY below avergae PER of 12. He has 37% fg shooting and he gets tons of wide open looks. Deng is ahead of parsons but likely doesn't fit this offense the way parsons does and long term his body has much more mileage than parsons. This is all with rondo not even being in the same zip code chemistry wise with this team. Who is to say he will not continue to improve as he has alrdy done from his rocky start?

Do you think he is consistently a very good player? This is a simple yes or no question and you are giving me the run around.
