I think that's probably true. He was regularly playing 25-30 MPG before this season. I think he'll be fine in this system.
This wasn't a "good" trade, but it was likely the only trade ... and likely the only one that put a shooter and play-maker in the rotation for at least a few minutes. These guys are flawed, but no more flawed that the current rotation players.
