    With how he's playing defense tonight I'd tolerate even sub 35% from three. He's always been a physical and tough minded player and I think him starting or not is irrelevant, he'll play starters minutes either way.

    He's a +19 right now in the first half. I guess it didn't take long to prove you wrong lol.

    Thats uuuh, just +17... :D

    I forget the defense needs more help than offense. So stopping points will make more difference

    Super small sample of course but, aside for the shot (maybe he lacks some range) which can still turn out to be good, his defense looks pretty great, he understands how and when to switch, has quick hands too and can make things happen just like Chris, i think we can be happy all things considered.

    The Cavs were a good defensive team when they won the championship. Shump had a lot to do with that.

    He's just the 3&D wing player we needed to make a difference this season.

    I said this I just don’t trust dumping every piece acquired off-season singing one tune and now singing another.
