re: Zach Lowe's Most intriguing players this season: Jrue Holiday

could envision his role being extremely similar to Klay's in GSW.

that's the hope. but Holiday is a better creator and is used to pounding the ball to find his shot.

Klay can drop 60 with 90 seconds of touch time.

forget Holiday being like that. but just getting him to be a guy who doesn't pound as much may be a tougher transition than we might think

Holiday needs to become what he isn't. A higher IQ player who understands being a secondary/tertiary ball handler

holidays biggest weakness in my opinion is lack of foresight and aggression.
he can run, he just doesn't do it enough
he can drive, he just doesn't do it enough
he can draw fouls, he just doesn't do it enough
he can shoot 3s, he just doesn't do it enough

sooner or later, what you do on the court is what you are
I'll be shocked if we see some huge improvements
all I care about is that he stay healthy
