JB found the perfect role for Dion.  Sparkplug off the bench.  Sit and watch the first 4-5 mins of each half and then come in.  The more minutes Dion plays, the more the flaws of his game get exposed, imo.  He isn't a guy who "busts it" every play.  He relaxed on defense when he felt like it and turned on the faucet when he wanted to go balls out.  He isn't the most willing of passers to his teammates.  When his drives to the basket and lollipop three point shots weren't falling, he looked useless at times. When he drove to the basket and thought he got fouled...he would argue with the ref as the other team went down court.  This kind of stuff doesn't just "go away", its part of his basketball DNA.
 
In the NBA, he isn't going to be like Beal, who can start for good team.  Dion will have to be a sparkplug off the bench for quick bursts of mins.  Once the book is out on him, he is going to have to make jump shots.  Not sure he is going to be able to count on that.
 
If he can hit 44% of his jump shots, then...the sky is the limit.  I just don't see it.
