PER doesn't scale up well. It means far less over small sample sizes.
And again, I REALLY like the trade for LA.
But I do have concerns with his health. The athleticism isn't what it was. You can even see it in HOW he defends, especially against the stretch 5s where he stays at the elbow instead of risking getting blown by. He looks like someone who seems to know he's a step slower than he was.
Just try to find some videos of him early in his career vs this season. He absolutely isn't moving the same way.
