ugh. those freaking shooting percentages. if he could get to 45 and 38 or so, he'd be damn good.

Dude, Keyonte is consistently one of the worst defensive players in the league both by advanced metrics and the eye test. That is the main knock on him, and not his offensive capabilities.

You can say a lot about PG but he at least defends.
 
His February splits are also looking quite nice:

45.0 / 37.8 / 75.6

Small sample size, but he looks real comfortable right now playing alongside Collier.
Do you even watch the games? Keyonte posted these nice looking splits in February AFTER he was moved to the bench so that he does not share the court with Collier.
 
He's 45 and 37.8 over his last 10. I think there are reasons to believe that his efficiency will improve if he isn't the lead playmaker so often.

Plus he is a great foul merchant which helps his overall efficiency as well

he shares a lot of court time with Collier in spite of not starting together. throughout games, but in particular they've been finishing close games together regularly since Key went to the bench. if you don't think they spend a lot of time on the court together, it honestly makes me wonder if you watch games. "well they don't start together so they rarely play together" that's exactly what somebody who doesn't watch would think.

Fair point. No, I do not watch the games - I have better things to do than watch a team lose 60 times in a season. I'll revise my comment to "he looks comfortable coming off the bench."

Happy now?
 
Since Collier became starter:

Key w/Collier:

MIN - 278
USG - 28
TS% - 57.8
PTS/75 - 25.3
AST/75 - 4.8
TOV/75 - 2.2


Key w/o Collier:

MIN - 290
USG - 21
TS% - 55.5
PTS/75 - 17.5
AST/75 - 9.7
TOV/75 - 2.5

What we're seeing is Key play great in both roles. He needs to step it up on defense to become a starting level player, but right now he's a very good 6th man as a lead scorer or distributor.
