I think part of what I’m struggling with in having the conversation is exactly what you said: “He’s getting more blame than he deserves, and the blame that should fall on him is out of his control” which is basically saying none of it is his fault. He’s a $10M elite playmaker. Suggesting nothing is truly his fault just seems absurd to me. If he can go from a 115 point player to a 55 point player over 82 games and none of it is under his control… I don’t know… kind of seems like a disaster of a contract already. Some of this has to be in his control.
