http://espn.go.com/nba/player/_/id/6624/jared-sullingerand you think he is untouchable?
He is doing better on D, and not as big as a liability as he once was, but this is a contract year and he is not even one of our top bigs on D.
Sullinger's 31.4% would be break even for a team shooting 47.1% for 2-Point shots and is not far off of where he would need to be for a team that hits 48.3% of 2-Point shots.
I think the key for him with 3-Point shots (or any shot really) is to make sure he is taking good shots at good times.
His shooting % is still not great. He does best when he does not take the threes. The long two is not a bad shot for him.
He has had three great games, WSH x 2 and Dallas. 1 Stinker game ORL, 12 average games where he scored 8-12 pts, of these he had 7 where he got double digit rebounds.
He is a rotational big, who plays well occasionally, rebounds solid most nights, but let's not start the borderline all star crap again. Our bigs our mediocre, he may be the best of that mediocre lot. That does not mean you build around the guy. We should keep him if the price is right but acknowledge that it takes Amir, to help him on D.
