Does Austin post these type of on/off court statistics?

I know Austin has poor raw numbers but this is terrible

Roberts being so terrible is one the most depressing elements of this season so far

Im not a big fan of +/- stat but it seems to be a good indicator for Roberts. Everything stops when hes in.

for a defensive minded head coach, he sure likes to put a PG that can't even defend out with the second unit.

Pelicans get a solid lead in the 3rd, Roberts comes in and we blow it, because all he does is dribble around until there's 5 seconds left on shot clock then pass it to ryno to jack up a bad shot. We've seen how solid we are playing fast,roberts kills all speed in our offense and i hate watching it.

With as poorly as he's been playing, spacing is the only reason I can think of why Monty has been choosing Roberts over Rivers. But if you have him out there for spacing, tell him to just be a spot up shooter and give him the Aminu dribble limit. I just checked his game log and in his last 10 games he's had 2 productive games, 14 points in the Philly blowout, and 6 points in 9 minutes vs the Spurs. He's averaging just 2.4 ppg in the other 8 games. If he's not scoring he shouldn't be on the floor.

When healthy our team doesn't need another scorer but right now we have to find ways for our second unit to not lose us games...rivers makes sense long term but idk right now

The problem with Roberts right now is he's not attacking on offense. He's playing way too sheepish for a guy who can flat out get buckets. The dude can shoot better than anybody on the team besides Anderson (not talking percentages here, just pointing out his stroke is sooo clean). He's our corner 3 savant. But he's not shooting! He's got to be more selfish on that second unit. I don't know whats got him holding back right now, but if he has to get his game back together.

Why? He played like this last year. Shitty arse player, just like his slower former teammate Greivis Vasquez

With a second unit that has Tyreke Evans and Ryan Anderson, two of our best offensive players, he should not be selfish on the second unit, he can bring the ball up the court but pass the ball to tyreke right when we set up our offense. Roberts needs to just stand in the corner. Our team is at its worst offensively when he just dribbles in circles.

Anderson is on the first unit right now if you hadn't noticed. I'm talking about the Roberts-Evans-Morrow-Amundson-Smith lineup that killed us the other night. Our offense has been so good this year because of the multiple creators on the court at all times. When Roberts doesn't create, that puts more weight on Evans or hell even Morrow, which often leads to bad shots that hamstring the Pelicans
