Based on what I have seen from Mudiay, I have to agree. The more we experiment the less these guys develop into their roles. But I also think everyone deserves a shot. So not really sure how I feel about this overall.

I don't think the former is a teachable skill, at least at this point.

This how you also destroy careers that are promising all in the name of chance. Mudiay got his shot when he was in Denver. It didn’t happen for him then and it 99% won’t happen for him here. Now is Fizz willing to lose Frank for this so called chance for Mudiay. Absolutely would be a dumb move by Fizz.

You got your best player on the floor playing his position already why f around for shyts and giggles.

So, we've never seen young players struggle early in the career, get moved to the right situation and then flourish? I can name a handful off top....

At what point do these guys become vets here. Mudiay is at a point where he is a young vet. Just like Burk you know he isn’t starting material in the NBA. Mudiay has reached that point too. You got to make a strong base for the players and jerking them around only weakens them. The great ones get to go at it from the beginning and make the mistakes and get it out of their system. Mudiay got that chance and now he is what he is. Burk got that chance and he is what he is. If anything Frank isn’t being given the chance that Mudiay and Burk blew. At what point do you say he is a role player nothing more. Reality has to set in sometimes, and Mudiay chances should have run out. Hurt my boy Frank ain’t the way to go. Fizz should also know that Frank is the better passer and decision maker.

Think that he can improve his jump shot. It is definitely teachable? Probably the thing most NBA players look to improve most and do each year. Kid is only 22. Some forget that.

His shooting form is "Camby/kevin martin like ugly, but it really doesn't matter the form, it's the release that matters the most. His release is different every time he shoots. Frank and THJ suffer the same problem, there timing on releasing shots are extremely different, it's either to hard or to soft depending on where they shoot from. They both a have beautiful shooting forms, but they rush there shots too much.

Harping in age suck he is only 22 all the grabage. He is a 4 year vet now. Age doesn’t mean talent.

Houston gave up on Lowery after 4 yrs, and look how he turned out, Olapido, Jermaine O neal, these players languish for yrs as potential bust until they got in the right system and right frame of mind.

Frank, Burke and Mudiay all lack something needed to be an ideal pg. so you have to use these guys accordingly

The difference is that Lowry was actually good at every other stop prior to the Raptors. No one expected him to be an All-Star, but it wasn't inconceivable that he could become a starter. I don't think anyone thought O'Neal was a bust. He was just one of the few trade chips the Blazers had on a team that was going all in. Mudiay has been Mudiay where ever he's been. I anxious to see how much he's inproved in the off-season, tho. And, to be fair, he did get his three-point percentage up to league average before he was traded. We'll just have to wait and see. No one can say anything if he forces his way into the starting lineup.

Exactly, but fiz has to start thinking about getting a consistent rotation as well, and not just use this season as a 82 game practice session.

I understand jump shots can be improved. I am bearish though on rewriting broke-ass jump shots.

As a phenomenal shooter , I think the single most important factor in shooting is not technique but confidence. Something that cannot be taught but can improve with repetition and success. If you look at some of the better shooters in the league, their technique varies and some even are unorthodox. But something that all good shooters have in a tremendous amount of confidence.
