I would rather stay in the middle. Because I am not praising Jrue and saying everything will be fine, I am bashing him I suppose. But the truth is that he has never been an efficient offensive player. Yeah, he takes a similar number of mid-range shots as CP3, but you know what else CP3 does? He gets to the FT line. At twice the rate over his career. A big reason why he is a career .575 TS% and Holiday is .507. That is a HUGE difference.
So, its fine. All is great right now. Pump up the good and assume the bad will be fixed. The opposite will be happening when this team loses a few games. I have seen it all before. But if we remove our fandom and try to be objective, I don't see how a person can have zero concerns about Holiday. Zero concerns about AD? Sure. But Holiday? Sorry, I can't see it.
