Yeah the parity is crazy this year. I think Minny and Denver have the "best player in the series" advantage over Boston but I think all too often the Finals is really dependent on who is the most healthy... Boston I think is the least susceptible to injury. A calf strain may be the determining factor.

and then Porzingis go down..... As you say, to win a championship, you need to remain healthy. We know this perfectly well. With an healthy Mike, outcome may have been different for us.

Unfortunately, he’s kind of a no hope shooter. I’d be very surprised if he’s ever passible. Can still find a way to carve out a career with his other skills though.

I wouldn't call him a no hope shooter. He shot 31% from 3 this year but started out the season horrible from 3 and gradually improved as the season went on.

October 16.7% but only 3 games
November 25.9%
December 33.3%
January 33.3%
February 37.5% but only 4 games
April 43.5% but only 8 games

I don't think he will ever be a knockdown shooter but I think he progresses towards a mid 30's 3pt shooter over the next few years.

Combine this with two straights years of 65% from the FT line. Not "no hope" but becoming an Okoro level shooter would be a high end outcome currently.

Ehhh.....I don't find utility in chopping up a small sample sizes into more smaller sample sizes. Fact is, he shot poorly on low volume + only shooting the easiest of shots. Terrible FT shooter and no long mid range game. "No hoe" may be a little hyperbole, but I'm not seeing much room for optomism. Becoming an average shooter, even on a lower volume, would be a high percentile outcome for him.

He's also been working with a world renowned shooting guru and still coming up short ;)

I would say if you are looking for the next Jalen Suggs type success he would be a good candidate.
