27 attempts from the corner in 78 games tells the whole story for you?

The year before he was 5/21 from the corners (24%)

Hardly evidence that he is a "corner spacer", no? And if he was such a good corner shooter, who OK'd him taking 211 shots from the top of the key at a 32% clip? Why not run plays to set him up for the corner 3?

Well, considering I can't magically create another 140 attempts, yes, that IS the whole story.

Because players never work in the offseason and improve....

The fact is, he shot better than league average from both corners. Sorry if you refuse to accept that stone cold fact.

This has nothing to do with his corner percentages and is just you trying to be an argumentative count.

Because for the majority of the year, he was the only capable ball-handler on the floor. He can't drive the lane and dish to himself in the corner.
