Otherwise, while I was waiting for Bo to say something snarky about Trey Burke, he drained another trey.
Indeed, he and Hardaway are often feast or famine. True dat.
Trey's post-bubble three point percentage is a mere 41%.
I always have a problem with streaky shooters who play poor D.
Consistency is important. So is D.
As for Trey's treys, he shot 8-10 from distance v. HOU in Bubble Game 1.
Then 3-18 in the other 4 games. That's some Tim Jr. level streakiness.
Kinda of stuff that drives me crazy. So his 41% is deceptive.
And too often when he's hot, it's one-on-one stuff. But he competes and Carlisle is giving him some good run. DAL has played 3 OT games in 5 bubblewrapped games.
I do think Tim has rounded his game some and gives better defensive effort than previously. With guys like Tim and Trey, I prefer them when they get into that 27+ age, where they have sharpened their game some, cut out some of the real bad jacks, become smarter players and more team-oriented. I'll say the same thing about Muddy, one of my favorite punching bags. If he stays healthy, I think Muddy will be a better player and a more useful backup in another 3 years or so, when he has more of a vet mentality and understands his role and limits better. Already he's figured out how to get off midrange shots, and he's a much better rim finisher than he used to be. Mudman doesn't need to add a 3-ball (though that would be nice), just stop over-dribbling, make a few more reads/passes, do little things like screen and cut. Same might go for Exum, though haven't seen him in a while.
