It was his fourth season before his O-Rating was better than his D-Rating or his OWS was better than his DWS. He didn't hit 1/3 of his 3's until he was 29.
Given health among our current players, I'm not sure anyone outside of the top 3 picks starts for the Mav's next season. If Pippen is the ideal, then Caleb Wilson is probably who we should be hoping for.
I assumed Pippen was an example of a perfect Robin in general, not specific to Flagg. If you are looking purely at fit I would argue Peterson probably makes most sense next to Flagg.
