I'm not sure I totally buy his thinking on Richardson, but it was certainly interesting to get the national perspective.
If he can't improve his offense the 2nd half of the season over where it's been, he should opt in and try to hit the market again after a rebound season (or he should squeeze his current overpaid contract out for all it's worth)
I mean ... he's getting really close to Kris Dunn territory of defensive specialist guard who can't carry his weight on offense. JRich's career PER is now 12.6 and Kris Dunn's is 11.9. And Kris Dunn got 2/10 on the market.
