TAKE DAT WIT YOU 9/8

I was probably just as frustrated as KP was last year watching how Carlisle was using him in the offense. Maybe that was Rick, BV, or both. But it doesn't really matter. No matter how you cut it, I think it was a clear example of trying to fit the player to the system rather than the system to the player. I look forward to watching Kidd's plan for maximizing KP's impact on both ends.


I might buy this thinking if I felt like there was anything to point to that had been successful for him in the past omitted by last year's system. The thing is, all that midrange stuff everyone is talking about...it's not the fault of analytics that they stopped going to it, it's the fault of Porzingis. He's not very good at those things. Dameris told a story on an earlier podcast about how he watched one of the Clippers games sitting next to Dirk, and all Dirk talked about was how shocked and disappointed he was that Porzingis had no "moves" to get good shots off in iso situations.  To this point, he has NOT been a good player underutilized, he has been an overrated player utilized perfectly on offense, to the tune of his most efficient season ever. Not a max contract season to be sure, but improvement. 

And how on Earth will feeding him the ball at the elbow so he can piss away possessions help him on defense, which is the part of the game in which he must help?
