We've seen Keith's problems start if he has to put the ball on the ground or elevate and shoot with a hand in his face. Let's start getting him that open corner pocket 3 off a screen. I think he's in his own head and it's like if he's not making a mistake, he's already turning to swing the ball before the pass has even reached his hands..like he can't get rid of it quick enough
The 3 doesn't seem to be Ben E's game and he took 5 last night, making only 1, he needs to get in the paint and make some floaters or at least draw another defender. Justin could probably stand to shoot more 3s his stroke looked good last night, made 1 of 2.
I feel like we need to run.

That too, my point is for those bashing Keith, he's still the best pure shooter on the team outside of maybe Nic, I know he's looked lost again so far, but I think we just need to get him out of his own way, create open looks for him and let him fire away

Ryan Manual is an athlete, not a basketball player.

Or maybe Keith was just overrated and shoots funny, which is exactly why he will never be consistently good? Give him half the season to prove himself one way or the other and then let the chips fall where they may. Seems Larry is giving him every opportunity to let him work his way out of his own funk by letting him start, but at some point the Godfather will do what is best for the team.
