In Tyreke Evans Defense
Posted on 2/27/14 at 7:40 pm

In the 19 games he played with Ryan Anderson healthy, Tyreke averaged 15.8 ppg, 5.8 rpg, 5.3 apg while making an UNREAL 63% FGs. He also had 101 FTA (5.3/game) and made 84% of those during that span.
Everybody's giving him shite because he's been poor lately, but is it not clear that this is directly related to Anderson's absence? Ryan gave the dude spacing to be a master slasher, which he was phenomenal at in their short time together (Team went 12-10 during Anderson's stretch, Tyreke missed 3 games, and w/o AD for 7). It's clear that when RA plays, Tyreke's offensive game blossomed. Now without him it's gone haywire.
There is a gripe to be made, because he's not stepping up to the plate right now, but when the spacing's not there, it's clear he's a one-dimensional player. Hate him for that if you get your rocks off to being a nega-pel. But he's a good player and I'm certain the aforementioned stats are the reason Dell was willing to pay a premium for him. Tyreke was meant to play and be successful in a lineup w/ Holiday-Gordon-Davis-Anderson, not Rivers-Morrow-Aminu-Ajinca.
Just one man's opinion...

So we're paying a guy 11mil to only be effective with a certain player.....

There's no spacing in general right now
How the hell is he going to be able to get space for a J if we have Steam/AFA(who both have offense whatsoever) The D won't have to worry about defending them
People expecting him to have success when we have virtually no one to take defenders off?
It's foolish thinking

I posted this a few days ago:
...he missed the 3 games, and I think he only played 12 minutes in the 4th game that he got hurt in, so I took it out.
I did not come to this conclusion though

In Tyreke's 18 healthy games played with Ryan Anderson (more than 20 MPG), he averaged:
16.1 PPG (44.8 FG%)
6.0 RPG
5.5 APG
1.7 SPG
28.6 MPG
The team was 11-7 during that span with big wins over the Grizzlies and Trail Blazers.
