I wish people would stop asking about Eric. They did not want to trade him for nothing, so he is still on the team. I hope he has a successful season with the Pelicans.

I thought a PelsReport poster was asking the questions when I read that. LOL

nice couple of interviews are on nba.com/pelicans (Evans, Ayers, Fredette, Anderson)

Evans was working whole summer on his jumpshot...

He works hard at his jump shot every summer.

So it doesn't sound good (based on his lack of shooting ability).
He should work on other things than jumpshot (which he will not corect much).

But no matter what - good that he will be healthy (as well as EJ, Jrue and Ryno)

When he doesn't lean back like a fade-away, his shot is near average. He has never been able to break himself of that habit in games, though.

True. If he could just rise straight up instead of fading back, he'd be average at least.

Could lack of explosion be the cause of this?

It's probably just how he learned to play. Like Aminu and his rainbow arch.

But but but....it looks better when it swishes.

It's concerning that he's been there all summer and isn't 100% yet.

That's relative. If he sprained his ankle, then yeah it wouldn't look good for him not to be ready to play now.

But some surgeries take longer to "heal" than others. Its like Ryno's deal where he could probably do some things now, but may not be ready to go "full" as of yet. He'll have a month or so to fully rehab it before the games count so I expect him to be ready to ball.
