But hes no more injured than any other guard at his position. Does this make every point guard soft/injury prone then If you wanted to get down the rabbit hole of Garlands injuries being more impactful to his play-style than other guards and being less than 100% feels a lot different then you may be onto something. But purely looking at data is only going to tell you so much unless its exactly what you want it to tell you"

"Let's talk about a concerning trend to begin the year what it means and how to address it. Drives. If the offense has seemed perimeter heavy and prone to large swings in efficiency there may be a reason why. the Cavs are creating drives at the 4th worse rate in the league (40.9/g) down from the 6th best (51.2/g) rate last year. The more teams get inside the arc off dribble penetration the more options that are available -- kick outs dump off for bigs mid-range shots; it puts the defense in help and rotation which teams can play off of it. Without it more onus is on set plays to create"

Development is not linear so trying to make determinations in a new role for a young player is perilous. Allow the process to play out before trying to jump to conclusions.
