Gortman shot the ball extremely well 52/57/100, but Hardy also shot 41% from three and led the whole team with 15 PPG in 26 minutes. Dinwiddie is Gortman´s main competition. He shot 30/27/67 with an 0.833 AST/TO ratio. Gortman stood out for his shooting in pre-season especially against Thompson, Grimes, Dinwiddie, Williams and Lawson, who were all somewhere between bad and awful.Saying Gortman can compete with both doesn't mean hating on Hardy. And with pointing out Dinwidde's limited impression so far, we both agree that he is Gortman's main competiton.
Yet, what went unmentioned so far is Exums absence. That was probably the biggest factor for signing him. And that's good thinking, as he might get a decent chance to show if he can fit in sooner than later.
