The example was intended to underscore the fairly obvious difference between a guard who shares the ball (Ehlo) and one that functions as the team's primary play-maker (Price). With regard to your "spot up shooter" comment, Ehlo actually averaged 4.7 APG twice on the Cavs, so he was a bit more skillful than you described. To put that into perspective, had JR Smith averaged that with the Cavs, the Cavs four trips to the Finals may have yielded more than 1 title.Huh? Craig Ehlo? The spot up shooter Craig Ehlo? Don’t get the comparison.
I was at the game last night, and as mentioned earlier, Zizic messed up what should have been 2 additional assist and he also was fouled one a very nice pic and roll pass. I’m not saying he doesn’t need to improve his court vision but looking at 1 assist doesn’t tell the story.
Not to mention with the dribble handoff sets, he’s put into a position where he’s turning the corner and scoring is his best option.
Those last 3 3ptrs were clutch. Two of them were because the defender when under the screen and he made them pay. The last was a pull-up due to him being given space because defenders have to respect his driving ability. Colin is slowly becoming an elite offensive weapon for this team. Let’s watch the games and not the box scores before y’all about his assist numbers.
With regard to the "if so and so hadn't messed up, he'd have more assists" angle, this happens to every point guard in the league. Now, if there's evidence that this is happening to Sexton at a considerably higher rate than everyone else, then we should definitely take that into consideration.
