Again, he was a first team all-conference player, so it's not like he had a bad year.

Personally, I believe he got hot/lucky at the right time during the one combine game he played in. We've seen it with him multiple times - 3-4 three pointers in a row, and then he's back to a 30% shooter. I hope he's successful, but I think the Lakers allowed themselves to be wowed by one 20 minute stretch.
