He used to be the primary scorer in the 4th. He also used to provide great defense. Now both roles are looking less and less in need from Khris. The bucks are not asking too much for him to do nowadays.
What’s his role going forward?
We played a 6 minute stretch with none of Giannis Dame Middleton or Lopez on the court. When he can handle the minutes, Khris should cook those.
Why would defense be less of a need now?
there were a bunch of plays tonight where dame and giannis are drawing all the defensive and middleton’s wide open for a three. so that’s always an option if dame or giannis want to bail on a drive
3rd option
Ray Allen on the Celtics
Incredibly good role player that creates elite spacing on the 3, can create his own shot, plays good D helps have 2 good scoring options ok the court at all times.
He’s a lesser Prime Klay on offences.
He is a a third leg. His role should be to be a consistent 3pt shooter, making 18-20ppg on good efficiency. He won’t have much attention as in the past so he should be more efficient.
Tbh the role was perfect for Jrue and they should have trade Middleton in the Lillard trade.
Middleton is still a really good player.
Trade piece when things fall apart
I’d rather he be given a “JCrawsOver” role. Come off the bench, provide scoring when Dame/Giannis is out.
