Reply to "Marjon Beauchamp"

I think Beauchamp's ability to be on the floor will come down to his ability to improve his outside shot to a level that isn't playoff Bledsoe-esque.

PJ Tucker is virtually useless on offense. He can't handle the ball. He has no mid-range game, and he can't finish at the rim. What he did do is develop one skill that allowed him to stay on the floor in crunch time which is to stand in the corner and basically shoot a set shot from the 3-point line at 35%. Combined with the occasional hustle putback he gets, that gets him to a 54% true shooting percentage. Beuchamp is much better than Tucker in terms of ball handling, slashing, and finishing, but if he can't get at least into the low 30s at the 3-point line he is unplayable for meaningful minutes. Maybe the Bucks think they can fix the mechanics of what is described as an ugly three point stroke.
