Kind of a weak article. It does suggest that he and Frank play well together and have a best Net rating together as a pair for the team.

Does article really suggest Dot should play more because of his stats or just play more to prioritize his development for the rest of the season?

Dot has been disappointing this year...I dont have any interest in re-signing him at all.

He’s been disappointing because he stopped shooting threes for some reason this year. The last few games he is though. No idea what motivates him to take so many deep twos. If he stays at the 3pt line he’s useful.

5 man net ratings mean something.

2 or 3 man ratings are BS

Everything in moderation. Even moderation.

He looked great tonight and was hitting his threes. He had shoulder surgery in the off season.

I think he is probably our best guard shooting wise sadly enough. It won't cost anything to retain him and I think he has just a good a chance to turn it around as Frank or DSJ.

The surgery is well known, but doesn’t excuse his awful shot selection this year. He seems to be finally reversing course somewhat though.

Im in this boat. He's a great athlete but fails the IQ/eye test. Constantly gets beat backdoor on defense and has pretty shot selection also.

Best scenario is he gets hot and we package him with some **** like Portis and some team thinks they are getting a good young player (and with our luck he becomes one )

He made some awful plays on defense down the stretch last night. No idea if he was trying to follow directions or misread the situation.

Last year I thought he had done well. He seemed to have been set back some with his injury.

Dude is still young- 25. It’s not awful if he stays, not horrible if we replace him.

RJ is going to be re-evaluated in a week so he will get minutes.

Whoa and if he just got off crutches I can see RJ not being back for a few weeks. Nice break for him for the second half
