The good thing is that Jrue is the player we need

Yeah, I think most of the defensive reactions these types of threads usually get is because it feels like people are saying Jrue is bad, but there's nothing wrong with being average at a position with so much talent that average = pretty good.

Listening to Sirius/XM NBA this morning and they were talking about Kevin Love and how his role has changed in Cleveland since he's no longer the focal point of Adelman's Corner offense. I do some digging into the Corner offense and think, we should be running that.

The system is ideal for teams with good jump-shooting guards and big men with passing skills. The basic premise is for the point guard to get the ball to a big man at the free-throw line elbow and then curl to the nearest corner. The second guard then sets a down screen for the point guard. The two guards then cut, or split, away from each other and the big man looks for the one who is open. If neither one is, the ball swings to the other side of the floor, most often for a pick-and-roll action.

Then I look at a highlight video LINK and we are running that. Jrue fits pretty well in an offense built around AD.
