KP has remained largely the same guy the last 3 years. Of course the injuries have affected his ability to add to his game, but he hasn't even gotten more aware on the court. He still tries to dribble through 3 guys and get the ball stripped. He still takes rushed shots. These are basic simple things that get fixed by just watching film.
I hope KP gets better. I was/am the biggest KP advocate, and appreciate he's starting to put things together, but he really has to start consistently acting like the number 2 guy around here.

Yeah, Luka may have not taken a lot of shots in the 4th on Thursday, likely d/t his neck, and yeah we missed some wide open 3’s, but you can’t argue that our ball movement tends to decrease late in games.
