Teams down 0-3 in a 7 game series have never won a series (0 - 140)
true but he spends so much time shooting midrange jumpshots mostly around the FT line that he probably has worked less on the 3 point shot the last few years and as a result has less of a feel from that range
How times have changed lol, Miami was up 3-0 last season in the bubble, and now Milwaukee is up 3-0 the season after
Ironically the opposite can be said for D Rose lol, he's now a 40%+ shooter from 3 point range when he was ~21% from 3 in his first stint with the Knicks in 2016-17

Middleton is moreso the 2nd option on offense I would say. But overall I’d agree Jrue is better, the best defensive guard in the league sans Simmons and on offense he has a versatile bag. Rare to see a normal sized guard with a post game in today’s league and still able to do other stuff.
I still think he has the potential to turn into a star. He was going through a sophmore slump imo. Considering the fact that he can go off the dribble, has the pull up game and the inside game all that would be needed is for him to improve his passing/playmaking. And that will come with time.
