Kevin O'Connor is sold. His conditioning is going to be of huge importance to the Celtics this season. If he were to actually get consistent from behind the arc (say 33-35%) we could potentially have 3 bigs with 3 point range.
That is a huge if given past improvement too. It is more realistic to expect another +1% which he did last year. Which would get him to 30% which is much more palatable.
We heard this crap last year, supposed improvement, how many more times? Every year is supposed to be the year he puts it all together, last year, he had the gall to say he was in the best shape of his life. He was in poor shape then. I think that his year he will be in better shape but he does not have an option, Lee is here, Amir is here and it is a contract year.
The real question on Sullinger on all this change is it because he has had a change of heart, or the contract year?
In Sullinger's case, he probably never had to work really hard to be successful.
I think he has definitely worked on his hands and his shot especially in the post. But I think that things probably came easy for him.
I think he thinks he is all world. That is a problem because he is not. But from time to time, he tries to play hero ball. Amir may do wonders for his D, which is poor. But do you really want Jared shooting threes at .29% when Amir does it at .41%? I think Sully should be the down low guy on offense where his offensive rebounding and rebounding helps us more than his three point shooting. This maximizes his strengths and minimizes what presently is a weakness that some think he is magically going to turn it around.
