Philadelphia sign Nemanja Bjelica..
lot of wings
Bjelica is a 6'10" PF. Signed to fill Illyasova's role.
better or worse
Better for Philly....
You’re saying Bjelica is better for Philly than Ilyasova? I rather disagree with that. Don’t see him shooting 41% again from 3.
why don't you think he can do that again?
In his 3 NBA seasons he's shot, 38.4%, 31.6% and 41.5% on 2.1, 2.7 and 2.7 attempts. I'd say the last two are outliers and he's likely to be in the 37 to 38 range.
I agree the 2nd year is an outlier, but why shouldn't he shoot better with more experience and on a better team like this 3rd year. He had seasons in Europe where he shot nearly 50% from 3. Bjelica has excellent shooting touch. It is the only thing he does well.
