He was almost All Star last year. He's only 31. He averaged almost 7 dimes a game last season. He would instantly be our #2 offensively.
People just love their advanced stats. If you focus your whole energy on defense and wide open threes, because you cannot dribble, pass or make any contested jumpshot you can become a eFG god, with your ceiling of eight points per game.
That is not to say Bullock can´t have an important role, but we so desperately need to raise the talent level on this team and that sometimes means disregarding advanced stats.
If it worked that way, you´d see Seth Curry, Joe Ingles, Reggie Bullock, Dwight Powell and Daniel Gafford win the NBA championship.
