can reproduce those numbers for the next few years. He is an ideal stretch 4 who shoots the ball extremely well, but struggles (as far as stars go) to get his own shot. He is a below average passer who is a solid rebounder. He struggles a bit on defense.

His inability to get his own shot and create shots for others means he needs to be at best a 2nd star on a top 5 team.

But as I said, I think he is very good. But Lauri, Sexton, Ogbaji and Kessler is scaring no one. So you win 40 games again next year. Maybe 42-44 the next year. When are you making the jump? Where is that transcendent player? I know the Sonics/Thunder didn't win a title, but I think they did it the right way in not having a Ray Allen on the roster and letting KD be the man.

Again just my opinion. I like following the Jazz on this board because so many of you are big NBA fans. Like I said you know your team much better than I do. For years Denver fans said to get rid of Will Barton and his hero ball attitude and the year after we finally do he gets cut by the Wizards and we go to the Finals.
