Damn its crazy the offense has really looked a bit smoother with the reduction of dependence on guys like Oubre - I always felt like his best role was more of a microwave scoring JR Smith kind of dude ... ironically - back in November ..guess what GIMMICK poster was one of his staunchest advocates on the forum y'all: :lolbron:

I mean... that was on a losing team who only got better once he was out if their rotation .... should be a little concerning ... I know they're making the best out of a bad situation but i'm just saying ...dude has been a negative +/- player every year of his career ...hopefully for the warriors that changes but they probably should have used that TE on a pure shooter :hubie:

Seems like a trend ...:francis:

He's come off the bench for four out of his five seasons, either on losing teams or ones hovering around .500, of course, it stands to reason there's not going to be the continuity (minutes, lineups, and personnel) to where he's going to come out having a positive plus-minus. Once again, showing your inability of being able to contextualize stats properly.

It says less about him and more about the situations he was in.

If he's in the starting lineup for the Warriors and they stay relatively healthy, he'll come out with a positive plus-minus at the end of the season. But what does that prove? It's a meaningless stat to hang an argument on in this context. His plus-minus shouldn't be the center of discussion - it should be about does his play lead to winning basketball.

Oubre will provide them with more impact than a pure shooter will. His versatility, defense, athleticism and energy will be of more benefit than someone who's primarily a pure shooter.

This JTA/oubre things feels like a mini draymond/David Lee situation.

JTA is Dray with a consistent jumpshot.. He has pretty much unlocked the offense being the 2nd playmaker on the court and notice he always picks his shots and never force anything

he’s a great role player. Will be great to give him a contract and lock him up because he’ll be invaluable next season as legit contenders (most likely Klay will be back 100%)

It seemed like prior to the AS break Oubre had started to figure shyt out and was learning to cut and move off of Steph's gravity, I don't know wtf happened since

Is he worth taking a look at? Going small is the best option for wins but they need a big for insurance purposes
