Mod squad selects Lance Stephenson
Eww. I don't understand this one.
A shooting guard with a history of disciplinary issues who averaged 10.9 points per 36 minutes, with mediocre shooting numbers?
Shooting guard who overcame disciplinary issues to be one of the hardest workers in the lockerroom (well, he still shoots his mouth off a little, particularly at the opposition). Averaged 12 pp36 over the last 3 months of the season, game got better as the season went on, and he started 72 games for the 2nd best team in the East last year. That's more than Eric Gordon, Dion Waiters, or any number of guys previously selected at the 2 have accomplished in the past season.
He held starting opposing 2's to a 12.4 PER, I can't really complain about that from a 22 year old player still finding his ceiling.
