PER underrates him; his Usg%/ORtg has been around 20/106 for the last 2 seasons, which is decent for a sixth man. If he can get back to that level that blows away the other guys we've had coming off the bench this season:
Davis 21/100
Nate 21/96
Daniels 15/102
I mean, it could stay that level? He's 23/101 right now. Also, the fact that this is an improvement underscores the weakness of our team, which has been the bench.
We all tend to overrate them because they're in the limelight and are role players on a very successful team, but push comes to shove, our bench sucks. The only guy I think is legit good is Delonte, but he's missed so much time it's tough to know how effective he will be.
The key thing is the players who will play in the playoffs. Sasha Pavolovic and Avery Bradley are not NBA players, but it doesn't matter - neither will play in the playoffs. Murphy, Green, and Krstic will, though. And it slightly scares me.*
*I have to say Krstic has been phenomenal so far. Hopefully that continues!
