I agree. He has unbelievable skills but only uses them to drive and shoot. Great players make the players around them play better (and McD has some great talent on the field outside of 9). He seems to make the whole less than the sum of its parts. Coaching most def shares the blame for that, but when the O coach is your older “brother from another mother” it’s unlikely to change. It will be interesting to follow him to see how he integrates into Dukes scheme. Current playing style does not seem to be a good match.
