    Those shooting splits have to be improved, especially as an off-ball shooter. That would open up his game even more.

    Nothing if You were in the crowd that lived to bag on AD’s injuries considering the way and how hard he played the game all over the court. Go for it.

    We are in agreement on that. The people that felt opposite know who they are.

    there can only be what, 6 guards on the west all star team, right?

    curry, luka, sga, and ant are basically mortal locks.

    that leaves 2 spots for reaves, jamal murray, devin booker, fox, and others. not making the allstar team isn't some sort of condemnation.

    all of those guys make a lot more money than reaves, btw.

    I agree with that too. Notice I never said that he would repeat those struggles, I said IF he did.

    5 time Champion Kobe? This is a pretty big stretch of a comparison isn't it?

    The last 2 sentences aren’t especially considering how great Kobe was. And what a great defense like Detroit or OKC can do to shooting splits if you’re the number 1 or 2 guy they’re throwing everything at. AR still managed games of 31 and 27 and averaged 20-21 against them and while not a hundred per cent, coming back a couple weeks earlier than normal/expected for the oblique injury he had. Which also wouldn’t help.

    I think that post got partially interpreted, as a Reaves isn't really that good type of thing.
