My hype for T.J. Warren remains unshakable. There is nothing that he or anyone else can do to convince me that he won’t be a 20ppg scorer at some point in his career. Unless he died. If he died, I would be forced to acknowledge that 20ppg would be out of the question for him. Short of that, though, I’m full-on gung-ho for this dude.
I am biased because I only see his highlights except for the few Suns games I watch (I’d watch more if they played Tyler Ulis and Dragan Bender, DAMMIT), so I don’t end up seeing his bad games. But his good games are so GOOD. He has such a sweet midrange game, not just jumpers but also floaters and other crafty things. He could cut out the floatier floaters, the ones that aren’t basically one-handed jumpers, becuase floaters are the sole domain of unathletic white NBAers. And he could stand to shoot/make more threes, thus forcing the Suns into giving him more minutes, minutes that he greatly deserves over P.J. Tucker.
I think he started off the season at 20ppg, then he got injured and hasn’t been quite the same since. Just more evidence of my sincere belief in his ability to average that amount over a whole season.
