I want him using his athleticism and length to get buckets in the paint...if there's an open three within the flow of the offense then shoot it but he's starting to take these early shot-clock threes. Maybe all the talk of being the #3 scorer is getting to his head.
That is a good point. Yeah, several of his threes recently have been rushed or early in the shot clock. Heck, against Toronto he took one (and made it) when the smart play was taking off 20 seconds of time. I would like to see the excitement of these launches curtailed a little. As you said, lets focus on all the other stuff and then hitting those wide open threes that he will get from Luka. If he shows he can hit them at a decent percentage than we can look at shooting more of these.
