he had 2 or 3 possessions where he went hard to hoop out of the half court and either scored or got fouled. The dunk was not a complete half court set up but not an all out transition hoop either.

I didn't say they were. But he needs someone else to set him up for those. He doesn't create well for himself, which is why he's not a strong half-court player, especially when he plays from the perimeter. He does well if there's a breakdown resulting in a mismatch or an open back-cut lane.

If he were such a strong half-court player, as BBM seems to think, then were the hell has he been for the last month? He hasn't been as efficient since Basabe entered the lineup, IMO because playing the 3 accentuates his weaknesses more than playing the 4 does.

So you're saying he can't go 1 on 5 and be successful? I agree.
