It's in his thumb, on his non-shooting hand - while it is limiting him somewhat, it's not making him shoot nothing but contested jumpers at 34FG%, which is horrific for a big man.


He's still an elite PF, just been an off this series for him. No team that needs a star 4 should hesitate on giving him the max.:manny:

Yea man, that nikka isn't infallible. I like him and all, but he still has those problems finishing at the rim.
And how many layups has he already hit in this game? Like no player in the league ever misses a bunny. :camby:

CJ McCollum has game frfr. That nikka is a very very good player. He may be a #2 or maybe even a #1 option one day. Dude can get his shot off when he wants and can get to the rack when he wants. I wanna see how he responds if a defense is focused on him
:comeon:

Dude is 6th man status.

He's on the wrong side of 30 now and he seems to drift further from the hoop each season. I wouldn't feel good about giving him a full max contract. He doesn't want to play the 5 either because of the physicality.
