Austin Reaves Discussion: Overachiever Who Underachieved

Trade him for AD
We have Jr . Austin in Luka anyway

 

The thrills and chills with the ragged edge AR has the balls to constantly put himself on in ATTACK mode. And much more often than not he's successful in getting to where he wants to go without losing the ball.

 

This GUY!!

 

Favorite player in the league... Outside of someone we let go

 

Three high IQ, very talented players that will one day have their numbers hanging in the rafters, will have no issues working together on the court. We can attack from any angle, no one has to get worn out doing it all and JJ will stagger them so one is always on the court until we have blown the other team out. JJ's defensive schemes have been good, Austin is playing hard on defense and LeBron is playing both ends. Luka will join in how he can but even if his defense is suspect, he will be covered by how the defense is laid out. Ideally it would be nice to have another big, but we can still win the championship with what we have. Jaxson is coming along nicely, Trey and Christian do what they do and coach will use them accordingly. Playing small at times, we have Vando, Rui and even LeBron. We have an abundance of talent. JJ will figure out how to best use it. As fans we just have to sit back and enjoy the ride. I think some people don't realize how good the LeBron/Luka combo is going to be, especially with AR there to take up any slack and allowing JJ to rest LeBron as needed. All this if we avoid the play in or win series being a successful season to me is crazy. This is a championship roster now.

 

He's 58 for 118 in clutch time for his career (regular season and playoffs) .

This is great

 

…. in the Clutch .492

 

So teams are gonna have to put their 2nd or 3rd best perimeter defenders on AR? Good luck with that.

 

A++ on the script and editing by Trice High. Too bad he had to narrate it himself (D-), but his prerogative with it being his project. Crazy to see the moves we marvel at today he's pretty much had since HS. How he got the HBK nickname obviously. What a baller!!

 

Great game AR …. just keeps going out there and running the team when the ball’s in his hands. Actually tonight still more often than not. JJ trusts him, LeBron does as well and Luka too no doubt after the show he put on against the Pacers. 22 points tonight on 10 shots, 9 rebounds and 4 assists.

 

Biff from Back To The Future .... rapping on Marty McFly's head (@showtime24 's actually)

This is why you don't try to trade him 600 different ways for half a year.

 

I'm not one to ever stir the pot, BUT after being gone awhile I cannot help but smile just a little at how many of the AR bashers are now AR lovers and acting like they were all the time. I'm not singling out anyone, just a casual observation. Remember, the guilty dog barks first...lol

 

were there any AR bashers? i honestly don't recall any. lol even the folks always trying to trade him seem to like him.

 

Aside from rookie deals, he is, easily.
