From the P&T guys. I have no idea if those types of #s are sustainable.

I did notice on 82games that LG has a lusty .388 EFG% against, meaning the guy hes opposite always shoots poorly which backs up the P&T article.

To be fair the 82games data is a couple weeks old so its missing some recent and pretety ugly games which could even the #s some but for comparison:
LG EFG% vs. .388
Tony Allen EFG% vs. .421
Patrick Beverly EFG% vs. .431

So you can see where he stacks up against some of the league's elite defenders on the wing in that regard.

Briggs started a thread recent that LG isnt a point guard and he's surely not much of a floor general at this time, but he's defintaly an NBA player at this point. History paints a good picture for his shooting to improve. The question is can he sustain this over a period of time at the NBA grind level?

As he looks more a spot up guy and a defender his skill set fits nicely with Shved... and Russell also

Not bad at all for a rookie. Hope he pans out.
The Future is Bright!

Only seen a few minutes here and there from Galloway, I like that he plays with a chip on his shoulder. Need more of that attitude on the team, backed up by level headed playmaking. Not JR Smith lose it at the worst possible moment attitude.
