he is definitely a very good player though not an efficient shooter due to the long 2's as you have stated.
he does do a number of other things well as well which makes him a very good player.
Super Max? I hope not.
Is he eligible for the super max? I think players with his level of experience can get 30% of the cap, not 35, like Melo. Obviously we can only give him a 4 yr contract too.
His TS% is about average. If we signed him, I'd wish for him to stop shooting those long 2s. He has excellent #s around the rim.

I agree but its not gonna happen. If we signed him, he will probably be asked to shoot even more long 2's.
He actually has also started shooting the 3 and is doing it really well.
bottom line, I would like to have this guy but only if he is used correctly and efficiently.
