I wish Gentry would stop trying to make him a 3 pt shooter.

I'm with you. AD is at his best when he's around the basket. I understand that will be times when he'll shoot the three, but if they try to turn him into a stretch four that will not maximize his offensive threat IMO. If he was able to handle the ball well off of the dribble then the threat of him popping out hitting the three would be a great addition to his game. Unfortunately, AD isn't that great off the dribble and right now he's not that great of a three point threat so opposing defenses would gladly let him stay out there and shoot all the threes he wants to.
