[KINGS] Comments that don't warrant their own thread (Redux)

Also the fact that the dude is in the 100% percentile on essentially all the three point shooting stats except for shot quality is insane. Dude makes an insane amount of threes despite taking absolutely crapty ones.

Yep, having the F on shot quality is better than having an A+. Means he hits just about anything, regardless of whether he's guarded or not. Steph Curry is one of the all time greats for that very reason. Steve Kerr probably had an A+ on shot quality but that meant he took way less shots in order to keep his percentages high.

I have no issues with LaVine shooting the ball more than anyone on the team. I just don't think he's capable of leading a team to much more than a bottom seed in the playoffs due to his lack of defense and playmaking. One could say you'd have to build the right team around him but that's difficult to do when his contract takes up a large chunk of the cap.
 
Nope, still can't think of LaVine as one of the worst contracts. Maybe in per year salary although the productivity ain't too far off the mark TBH, but Shroder relatively speaking might be as well. The deals not lasting very long >>> per year salary. Much rather have LaVine making 100 million over 2 years than 4 or Shroder making 30 over two rather than 3 or 4.
