Everything VanVleet

[Yuri Gagarin]

Curious when the last time was we had a pg that could dunk was? Rafer Alston?

[The Claw Reborn]

I really believed that trading VanVleet will make us a more younger and deeper team with an eye on the pure development of Scottie and his chemistry with the other starters. A more cohesive and faster team.

A future pick to add with our own pick is an icing on top.

Wright>>> FVV

[Dvdvideo]

FVV - LAST 5 games shooting percentage
29%
42.8%
38.7%
32.4%
22.2%

Average: 33.02%. And he's taken a crap ton of shots. And supposedly he is playing much better now? Again, if injured, he should not be playing.
If healthy, whats going on here? Bad ball movement by the team or forced shots just trying to get paid? Or missed open looks?

I dunno, I don't think this is a coincidence over the last 5 games:

+1 on court, -9 off court
+6 on court, -9 off court
+10 on court, -14 off court
+12 on court, 0 off court
+6 on court, +6 off court

Yes, his shooting is coming around slowly at best, but he does a lot more than that for the team.

Also worth noting he's been doing a great job getting to the line, so looking at TS% instead:

30% (yes, disaster game)
53% (fine)
56% (good)
59% (very good)
49% (bleh)

Total over this stretch: 50% (not good, but not actively damaging either), and mostly dragged down by his first game back from injury (last 4 games it's at 54%, a good tick up from his season number of 52%).

Might want to adjust your criteria for good and very good.

League average TS% is up to almost 58% (57.7) this year.

Not saying that, just hoping for better from him going forward, and if anything can facilitate it.

And the + / - is misleading, depending on who he is on the court with.

Fred minutes are usually matched to Siakam in transition lineups, so he’s getting the maximum support possible to look good. He always has.

by this logic why is the raptors absolute worse lineup = siakam, og, gtj, flynn and barnes with a whopping -40.7 in net rating? someone seems conspicuously absent from this lineup! (yes we can all manipulate data to suit our arguments)
