I would be very curious to see how his fitness results were compared to previous seasons. From my point of view, his edge work is still and will always be there. But for some reason, it seems like he doesnt have that quick step, or has lost a bit on that front. Its as if his fast twitch muscles are not the same as they were the previous few years. Hence he isnt able to get that necessary separation to make a play. Couple that with his unwillingness to take any sort of contact and play a perimeter game, is a recipe for failure.
