This board to Omax: Why you keep doing those things you suck at?
Oh, I totally understand WHY they're having him do those things, I'm just saying we shouldn't be deciding he sucks because he's not good at those things (yet).
And, it's bonkers to hold that stuff so against him that we can't acknowledge the very, very good things he's doing on the other end.
It's similar to the Hardy conversation from last summer, only a little different (imo) in that Hardy MUST be an on-ball player to be anything. O-Max doesn't have to be able to initiate offense from above the break to get onto the floor, so to watch him try to do that and draw conclusions about his NBA readiness is wild to me.
