I feel like he may be the most polarizing player on the team this year as the Love/Hate is split about 50/50 on this board. Here's a thread for all of the Austin Rivers discussion. I will try to keep the stats at the bottom updated.




Through 3 preseason games:

FG: 9/27(33%), 3PT: 0/8 (0%), FT: 9/12 (75%), AST: 5, REB: 11 (11 DEF, 0 OFF), TO: 2 (88 Minutes), STL: 4, +/-: +17

Can you do the stats on a per game basis? For instance, ppg/apg/rpg/etc.

I'm terrible at math, so it would help out as we get more games under our belts.

That 0 for 6 behind the arc doesn't look so good

Hopefully he finds his shot

Great thread idea. Can you include a turnover category as well? I know he doesn't have any yet to record, but he was much maligned for his turnover rate. So, that will be something both sides of this argument would like to keep up with, I feel.

I love him and definitely supported the decision to draft him. In.

The kid is what, few games into preseason of his first year already? Aminu was drafted 8th in his draft and he's had a ton of leeway and JUST starting to show somewhat of a promise. I think everyone needs to just lay off of Rivers and let him evolve a bit. I wasn't expecting MJ or DWade right away or even ever, not sure what some of ya'll thought he'd be.

Another thing to take into consideration, he's doing a lot more in a position he's not comfortable in (at least that's what I see from him in the little I've seen him play)
