But the advanced stats Twitter brigade will surely slay here again. Darling Haliburton vs. another Lavine/DeRozan-type stat-padding no defense loser.
To me Haliburton looks like a player with Brogdon-ish upside. I don´t think he´ll ever be a 20 PPG scoring option, but an overall winning player.
Of course he´s also a PG and MEET Rick Carlisle.
The world overreacts. Look at the rollercoaster of who won the KP trade over the years. First it was the Mavs and then when Randle was going off for the Knicks, they were the obvious winner. Today, neither team won.
