    Yeah he needs to stay. He's become such an lethal shooter. His clutchness in the playoffs offsets all of his other weaknesses.

    I don’t know what people want. Shooting (Number 1) and defense FG % are in the league top 3. A true 3nD player lol

    His defense against the rockets big wings was top notch this series and his shooting was amazing.

    Big series next if he can have the same defensive impact you have to think about bringing him back. Rebounding and all.

    Still the “if” against toughest defense in league. Stepping up in playoffs 4 straight years and as you stated played GREAT “3 and D” isn’t enough?? For Rui it has to be a new definition to get respect enough around here to want to keep him …. 3nDnR. Or perfect player. We cry the blues forever about not having 3 point shooting and here is a big strong dude who has really grown with his defense and is now the leading career 3pt % shooter in NBA history …. and it’s still not enough. Not all at you as there’s so many here that just assume he’s not a keeper and will be gone.

    He’s a frustrating player, because he does a lot of dumb stuff, but man is he a playoff riser overall. I would take him back if no better options are available, but for less than he’s making now, and I’m not sure how that’ll go. Just don’t think you can go far with him as a starter, but as as a cheaper bench scorer, maybe. Still, this is kinda wild
