JRich on the other hand has been a huge disappintment and I am ashamed to admit I called him our third best player early in the season. I even think kamm is spot on by saying he gives you the impression of playing good defense by flailing his arms... I watched him closely the last couple of games and I don't see anything special on D. His O is average at best - nice midrange game but his shooting motion with that weird side rotation is just too messed up to let the 3 fall in a consistent basis IMHO.
I'm actually on the other side on this one. THJ is slowly turning into Lou Williams. Good microwave off the bench (debatable), but a huge liability on defense. The thing about THJ is his consistency. Feels like everytime he has a good game offensively, it's against bad teams or in losses against good teams. Can't remember the last time he played good against a top team or in the clutch (not to mention he was our least reliable player in that LAC series).
