Message: [QUOTE="Day2, post: 3655279, member: 5348"] Shamet is not a good defender. He’s had the lowest defensive rating on the team the last two years. He had a sophomore slump, where his three-point shooting dropped from 45% to 37%. He might wind up being better than Kennard in the long-term, but Kennard is better right now. The Clippers didn’t just make the trade for draft picks. While the defense and shooting might be a wash, Kennard is the superior ball handler. He can create offense. That’s why he’s an upgrade over Shamet and that’s why the Clippers traded for him. [/QUOTE]
