If you don’t have unselfish 3 and D glue guys like DFS or Josh Green, you won’t win anything. If you have 5 unselfish 3 and D guys like that you still won’t win anything.
You need creators and the pure PG model went out a long time ago. With a creator who can score the key is they have to always walk that fine line of scoring vs passing. It is never going to be a perfect balance that you or I will agree upon. If they pass in a key situation they will get blamed for not taking the shot If they miss, they will get blamed for not passing. However this type of decision making needs time and actual playing time to develop. Luka is in year 5 and still shows a lot of selfishness with the ball despite his assist stats. Let this kid get some time. He was a PG in school and his ability to pass was not questioned. D League gets you into some bad habits. Give him time.
The THJ comparison by the way is way off. THJ was never a shot creator for himself or for others. Hardy has the ability to do both. If year 3 after getting a good amount of playing time, he is doing the same, then I will come over to your side.
thanks for reinforcing my point. dude aint a star and he acting like he is...like THJ. true stars taking over in the fourth and putting the team on their shoulders is one thing, non-stars doing it is another.
