Re: Four years ago, he was just a 19 year old kid who we wished would become like Bow
We're watching in the clips, dribbling ball handling, crossover moves, he's improving.
He doesn't need Irving crossover, for a forward like him, his ball-handling doesn't leave much to be desired and is good enough to attack the rim.

KL has good handles for a SF. Sometimes, he doesn't dribble with as much confidence as a man with his power should is all.

If one is averaging three three attempts a game, he is a three shooter in that his team is relying on him to be able to make some threes in the system. Now, CoJo would make an odd three; but he wasn't a three shooter. He wasn't typically spotting up waiting for an opportunity to shoot threes like KL.
He's a three shooter in Spurs system? In his first seasons he was often relegated to the corner as spot up shooter, he was good, but not a corner-bomber.
His three-point shot is good enough to help spread the floor? Maybe. This transforms him into a three-point shooter? You say yes, I say no. Agree to disagree?

Well, I see all your points. I was just noting that KL is a three shooter in that it is significant part of his game, and the Spurs depend on him to make threes at a reasonable clip.
