As far as an offensive standpoint he's still getting similar open shots with us that he got with the Blazers. He just isn't hitting them as well as he did. He has fallen off drastically as far as his pull up shots and his ability to score from inside 10 feet which is likely the bigger issue with him since that is something that requires more physically I would imagine. Hopefully he can improve on those things with a full off season but Wes the catch and shoot player isn't really much different. And just by looking at him on defense we can all see he isn't the same physically as he was in the past.
I guess depending on how optimistic you want to be you can either say "well of course he isn't playing well inside like that it takes time to fully recover". Or you can say, well great he's 2015 richard jefferson minus the "athleticism".

I'm sure it has to do with his injury and lack of time to work on his weaknesses. He was probably rehabing when other players were working on specific things and he was getting into game shape well after other players were, so I hold out a little hope.
That said, he's killing me.. I think some of his minutes need to be given to Janderson. That kid does a lot of good things and it's getting to a point where at least his time on the floor doesn't hurt you and it's a wash while Wes gets rest. Then maybe we can expect more from Wes.
