Playoff Series Imponderables

[Kammrath]

If he is indeed just not very good, and that is not related to injury or illness, it would seem to indicate a substantial talent mis-evaluation by the front office. Is that what you believe occurred?

I think the Mavs wanted three things in the JR trade:

1) An expiring contract to have cap room for this summer.

2) The asset of #36 and what became TBey.

3) A chance to see if JR could have the impact he had in his last year in MIA. 


I think his last year in MIA has been shown to be an outlier. I think Spoelstra (one of the very best coaches in the league IMO) was able to get more out of JR than RC was. I also think that JR just massively overperformed that year and he is just regressing to the mean.
