THJ is the definition of a streaky shooter. Hit or miss. On fire and he cannot miss for two games in row. Off and he bricks everything for 5 games in a row.

There is no player in nba history that can block Luka going inside to the basket
He is special and will only get better!!! 14 at the half for Mr MVP Luka

The thing is KP isn't taking bad shots. They're just not falling. Either just in and out or he's trying to draw contact and not getting rewarded.
Those shots are going to start falling the longer he plays and the more rhythm he gets. What is amazing to see is the defense he brings is consistently elite and really is a foundation for this team.

I wouldn't mind upgrading Powell with Tristan Thompson.

He isn't taking shots outside of the flow of the game. The thing is that his execution is rushed. He isn't calm while shooting. He isn't calm at all. Its easy to detect. Watch players closely and they will mostly miss when they are rushing the execution. That is especially the strength of Luka, most of the time he does it well. You can predict him missing when he doesn't. Im not saying it's easy to do. But that's definitely Kristaps biggest problem.

KP has no patience on the block. Too often he shoots immediately instead of trying to take his guy face-up or back him down. He needs to study Dirk's game.

Exactly he rushes his shot. No patience at all.It pisses me off. Dirk would slowly dribble and tell everyone to gtfo of his area. Then take the patented step back 1 legged shot. Watching Porzingis makes me miss Dirk even more.

KP starts the half with a smooth jumper. Carlisle intentionally trying to get him going.
DFS with the 3!

He takes more spot up shots with the starters but his shot selection is still questionable. Transition 3 on 4 vs 2 fastbreak and midrange pull ups. As long as he makes them no one will complain. He had terrible shooting percentages in 11/14 games and had 3 games with good ones. This is the 4th good game. Not really sure what you classify as a streaky shooter but that´s probably the definition. He is not shooting 4/9 or 5/11 every night. He goes 0/5 and 2/11...follows it up with perfect shooting nights against GS and Cleveland today. 6/7 in both games. Looking at his career it is the same story. If you want to base your opinion on a two game sample size you are free to do so but he won´t continue too shoot 100%+ TS just because he starts.

Hardaway Concussion Protocol, hopefully he is cleared. Didn't looked that bad.

Just because he has been a streaky shooter in the past doesn't mean he is streaky right now. It's not the same. Streaky happens because of bad shot selection, the variance with these shots is just higher. He plays a completely different game with the starters, this style produces better results.

LUKA TO KP FOR THE LOB AND DUNK!
That's there so often. I cannot wait till Luka starts to hit him more there. KP WITH THE 3! There is a marked difference in KP's shot when his feet are set vs. when he's rushing.
