I'm ok with the idea that you might disagree, and I certainly could be wrong, but I think he's a hell of a shot creator from the mid-range off of the pick and roll, and I happen to think that's the number one most marketable skill in the NBA right now.
You know me - I'm not going to be in doom and gloom mode forever, even if this happens, and I'm not going to change my narrative to fit some predetermined mood.
But I'm telling you now, this one is going to hurt me.
For me one of the biggest issues I have with Brunson offensively, that makes him very predictable is that he has no pull up 3 (so basically as soon as he puts the ball on the floor the defender knows to straight up guard the drive). He shot like 31% on only like 1 attempt per game. I don't like how his shot creation is all mid range or in the paint. He's only good at shooting 3's that are created for him. He really, really needs to add a pull up 3 to his arsenal. It would also make him much more difficult to guard on drives. Without that shot I don't think he's touching any all star appearances, or touching 20ppg either.
