He is always going to be a reluctant shooter. That is fine. This team needs a few guys who only look to take great shots. During the regular season even when he was a reluctant shooter he did so many good things on the court. In the first round of the playoffs it seemed different. I am not sure if he lost confidence, not ready for playoff ball or if teams are defending him differently. I think he is best when he pushes the pace and gets open non contested looks on drive and dish.
