It piss anybody else off to see Austin Rivers playing 28 MPG in New Orleans while shooting 31% from the field? I hate what's happened to Lamb - I think he can be a really good player in this league.
The shooting guards drafted ahead of Lamb have really been bad overall at shooting and in general.
Brad Beal is at 32.6%, 33.3%, 89.5% On 10.4, 4.2 and 2.9 attempts.
Austin Rivers is at 31.9%, 36.0%, and 66.7% On 7.2, 1.9 and 2.5 attempts.
Dion Waiters is at 37.2%, 37.2% and 73.2% On 14.9, 5.2 and 2.7 attempts.
Its not like any of them are stat stuffers either.
Terrance Ross has been OK in limited minutes for Toronto at 41.5%, 27.8%, 0.0% on 5.9, 2.6 and .2 attempts. He mostly plays garbage time, so it's hard to judge him.
Of course those four are also on four of the crappiest teams in the NBA, four worst records this year. Combined for 11 wins in 58 games.
As a comparison Kemba (with the worst shooting performance ever) shot 36.6%, 30.5% and 78.9% He also averaged more assists and rebounds than any of them while playing similar minutes. It's a long season, and will be interesting to see how these guys do at the end of it.
