Not playing much and playing poorly when you do; not exactly my idea of a must have prospect.

It's not about him being rusty. It's more about a team picking on you on defense bodying you up. It also has to do with being able to do other things when not asked to be a scorer. So when you go max 2 questions. Are you a #1 offensive player on a championship team and 2 can you strive on a championship team if not being an offensive player. So is he worth max money? Well it depends on what your goals are. To date we have no success with Austin in the playoffs. 1?won game to date in the past 3 years. So it's not to far fetched to ask if he would serve better in a Manu role on a championship team.

I’m perfectly fine with building a properly balanced team around Luka and AR.
I’m willing to bet that so is the Laker FO.

He could have been fully healthy and shot like sh** and you'd still be making excuses for him.

And I really don't care about rust personally. It's the PO's Do or die. Every game matters. Time to get his injured a** out there and perform. Excuses are out the window with me.

And he could make the All Star team and you would still say he’s trash and not worthy of a new contract. Wash, rinse, repeat.
So fun.
