OB hired a private shooting coach and spent the summer in Vegas to improve his shot. JB gave him the opportunity to showcase his "improved" shooting stroke. So we lost a couple of games in mid-November to brand name teams...who cares?!?! If OB realized he is NOT a 3-point shooter and agrees to play in the paint going forward then this was a successful 2-game stretch.
My biggest concern with Battle isn't necessarily his shooting. I don't care for his demeanor with the refs, but more importantly, I just don't understand why he doesn't do more to get his teammates the ball in position to score. Holding the ball, dribbling for no reason, missing passes to wide open guys. Has to be frustrating for everyone.
Agreed. But NBA players all need that skill. He should be working on that as well.He's been that guy his entire career here. It's never been a strength of his to set other people up.
