Can Vasquez improve enough?

In my last post there was a bit of a discussion on weather Vasquez has reach his ceiling or not. IMO he can improve in some aspects, and not in others.
If Vasquez was to be our starting PG next season and his numbers were to be:
15 PPG up from 13.9
9.5 APG up form 9.0
3 TOPG down from 3.2
0.48 FG%, up from 0.43
0.380 3p % up from 0.34
13 shots per game down from 13.3
0.5 hero ball shots per game down from about 2 per game average
And his defense is about the same as last season, would you think this would be enough to offset his defensive shortcomings?

No, his defense is horrendous. He would be great as a reserve. If we are in a position to draft Burke, I would do it unless Bennett or Porter are still there.

been playing competitive ball for six years now. no defense. no playmaking skills. if he improves, great, he's a cheap plug til we find a no-gamble guy.

Vasquez as a heavy minutes starter just doesn't fit the direction of the team. I see Vasquez kind of like Okafor in many regards. He's going to be decent against much of the league, great against a handful of matchups, but the matchups that are not in his favor you're better off starting his backup. There were only a few centers big enough to make you go to Aaron Gray over Okafor, most of the playoff teams have a PG that will have you going to Rivers or Roberts over Vasquez.
