The Strus is Loose

Do Not Sell My Personal Information
Bruh I just came from the game thread where you were complaining about negativity, and here you are being negative to our own user base.
I was complaining about the negativity of the fans towards the players bruh. Here I'm being positive towards the player and how he should be rated. Are you saying we did overpay Strus? I'm confused. If anything I'm being totally consistent.

You aren't being positive to the player, you are being negative to the fans. You can be positive about the player without making fun of people who thought we overpaid. Some of whom are on this forum.

And no, I am not saying we overpaid Strus. I can come to the defense of others even if I don't agree with them.

He’s just holding the fans accountable.
 
Adding Strus, Niang, and TT has added much needed leadership to the locker room. Two of them have been to the NBA finals and knows the process to get there. After Kevin left last season, that element left too.
 
Here are Strus 3 point stats as promised after 11 games:

Wide Open 3s: 0.9 3PM at 43.5%
Open 3s: 1.1 3PM at 35.3%
Tightly Guarded 3s: 0.7 3PM at 29.6%

Last season he averaged 1.7 3PA for tightly guarded 3s. This season he averages 2.5 3PA for tightly guarded 3s. It is still a small sample size but I don’t believe our offense is designed to get Strus easier open shots yet or we really have no offense design. Perhaps when Garland is healthy we can get more opportunities.
After 18 games:

Wide Open 3s: 0.9 3PM at 48.6%
Open 3: 1.3 3PM at 40.4%
Tightly Guarded 3s: 0.7 3PM at 29.3%

Last 7 games Strus has made 3.1 3PM at 44%
5 of 7 attempts per game are open or wide open 3s. He’s made 52 percent of open and wide open 3s.

It shows that we are getting him more open now which is good. I think we can do more as the players become more familiar with each other.

I am not saying anything new here, but shooters like to know when and how their shots are coming and takes time to get comfortable. Like i said, not breaking news, but obviously Niang and Strus are more catch and shoot, so just took some time to get used to our offense or lack of offense as some say, lol
