I agree with all of your points.
For clarification on the last one re my "5-6 minute stretches"...I think there have been a few stretches like that where he has been DOMINANT, defensively. That's what I was talking about. I think there have be a similar amount of times during which he has been super rough. In between, for most his time on the floor this season, he has been pretty good, imo, which is a huge improvement over last season.
I just wanted to clarify because I have a huge "KP Hater" target on my back around here. I want to be fair with how I articulate things when talking about him.
In general, I think he's having a good season, so far. I think credit for that should be given to the coaching staff and to the player, himself.
I'd still trade him at the first reasonable opportunity.
