TDL Archived: The 2nd Rnd Pick Yankee Swap

[dirkfansince1998]

Hard disagree.  He has an extra year compared to THJ and he is more expensive than THJ for the overlapping years.  He's playing 18 minutes a game and averaging under 7 points per game while shooting 33% (his specialty) from distance.  Even if you want to call this year an aberration,  his stats last year aren't exactly worth the 15.5M he earned.  It's why his contract along with Bertans were considered among the worst contracts in the league.  The Mavs goal shouldn't be trying to collect those contracts and because we already have one of them, unless they get blown away in compensation, there is no way Robinson should end up on this roster.

Did you read the first part of the thread. For comparisation. DR is getting less than 4 open 3s per game. THJ is getting nearly 7. He is getting less open looks than any of the Mavs wings (DFS, Bullock, Maxi). That´s a big difference and it´s not about their ability to get shots off. Robinson´s release is even quicker than THJs and I would argue that he also moves better without the ball. Simply about a team with bad spacing and no player that is able to collapse the defense or draw double teams.

He probably isn´t going to turn back into a Curry or Klay like shooter but 38-40% on solid volume seems reasonable. It´s not like his mechanics are broken.
