That's your opinion, I never claimed that. I also saw him play before and checked his stats. Which are not really great. Sleepinghero presented you some. But whatever...
I wonder why you feel so offended by opinion different from yours.

Oh please, come on. Stop with this ridiculous take that he is a good offensive player. Forget stats and watch a game here and there. As Sleep told you, he has no offensive skills. His baskets are all coming from someone else creating space. They are either shots at below average percentage or when looking for space from other people drives. Any unit can survive 1 of DFS/MKG/Wright types. But halfcourt offense will be certainly worse if you replace any of DFS/KP/Luka/Seth/THJ with MKG. Put more than one limited offensive player in the lineup and halfcourt offense will just die.

I have nothing against MKG, but please let's just be realistic and stop with the hype. He has some defensive skills and he will come in handy here and there. But to think that he will suddenly transform into a great NBA player, suddenly his shot will miracoulusly change,...
Same crap as Scott is having with WCS.
