gone are his ill-fated drives to the basket. instead he's just getting into spots better, taking better shots, and dribbling and passing just enough to do his thing. he's SO much more efficient right now.
Having Russ at the start of the season not to mention how well he's playing takes a huge load off PG. Remember how he's been trying to run the point and turning it over for the past two seasons. Now its just getting to his spots, making shots, and focusing on defense.
Yes, many Mann fan-bois were outraged when Mann was demoted from the starting lineup as the so-called point guard, but the fact is that Kawhi and esp PG were exhausted busting their ass covering for him. So they pushed to sign Westbrook.
Now T-Mann has lost his starting job again as the so-called power forward. Oh, well.
