For that game, there were no play him with a point guard options. By year three, he’s hopefully got his shit together to be a 8th or 9th guy who knows his role, doesn’t try to do too much, and can play acceptable team defense. Counting on him as a rotation guy next year is fools gold. Lots of development still needed in the lab.
For sure. I don't think that was a serious lineup. It was getting the 2 way guys their longest min of the season.
We don't run that type of offense.
I'd like to see him play with one of our better ball-handers.
If he wins either something went incredibly wrong or incredibly right. Did he finally spend his salary on those VC boosts?
Not exactly self-aware is he? Probably not the best moment to call attention to yourself and your own goals when your team is struggling in a playoff series. Not to mention the dude shot 38% from the floor in the G-league. You really think you are going from that to Tyrese Maxey level play in 1 year? Yeesh. Oh well - I guess you have to believe in your self.
What you want him to say?
He didn't make 1st, 2nd, or 3rd team G-League all-star. He didn't make the all-rookie G-league team. He didn't receive any honors at all. After the season he had, he just sounds immature and foolish. You can still think you are the next Maxey, but you keep that to yourself. You reply with "My goal is to continue getting better because I want to help the team in whatever way possible and I'll let the individual honors take care of themselves". That's the way winners respond. That's the way good teammates reply. He plays selfish. He talks selfish. It may well be that he is indeed selfish.
