He's average, not even really that big. He's not all that athletic. He doesn't have soft touch as evidenced by all of the point blank misses. Literally takes his shots right at the rim but a lower FG% than our highest clip shooter. Actually a lower FG% than even Bryant's 3pt%.
I haven't said a thing about giving up on him and I won't, either. But he's not any of the things you said.
