    Not for me.Been saying for 3 years they should trade him and it’s not getting any better it’s getting worse

    Last 10 playoff games 40% and 28%
    Not a good look for your 2nd best player

    wouldn't even be worrying if he could actually defend, but the fact is that he's also one of the worst defenders in the league.

    Mitchell just going at him was depressing mostly because AR is one of my guys. Love watching him and seeing him getting clowned like that is no fun.

    That being said I think he can get better - you see how Luka did improve pretty dramatically on D as the season progressed. He needs to get stronger physically - hit the weight room AR.

    I'm not sure if AR can bridge this particular gap, AJ and SGA took him out to the logo and beat him with speed 1 on 1 repeatedly. I actually think AR has improved significantly in half court sets. None of that matters if he is giving it back on the offensive end - tonight he just couldn't but tried hard.
