There is a reason. Buddy is under 40% from the field and under 30% from three but shoots the most FGs and threes on the team, has the highest usage rate, has the lowest DBPM, BPM and DWS of the players that get real PT. AG also beats him in PER by 5 points, TS% 57% to 49% and eFG% 54% to 47%.

AG is more efficient, better shooting, better on defense, better at rebounding and a better athlete.

Again, the argument isn't AG v Buddy. It's JGIII v Buddy at the 2. And you can make a real argument that JGIII should start over Buddy at this point.

Yes, there will be games where Buddy is hot and he should play. On the whole, though, Buddy is a liability with the way he plays / is allowed to play.

Glad Buddy played well. Glad he got past COVID. We need him. He's an ok player that is a net negative when he plays a lot. Sorry if this deflates everyone's hopes and dreams.

BTW - I caught BS when I posted all these types of stats at the very beginning of the year re JGIII. The numbers don't lie. The truth is staring us right in the face.
