Dennis Schroder's first season as a member of the Los Angeles Lakers didn't go exactly as planned. The Lakers, who sorely needed another ball-handler to run the offense when LeBron James went to the bench, acquired Schroder hoping he would help them repeat as NBA champions. Instead, the Lakers were knocked out of the first round. The Lakers were 11.1 points per 100 possessions worse without James than they were with him, yet the duo didn't fit particularly well when they were on the floor together, either. Schroder shot 38.5 percent from behind the arc with the Oklahoma City Thunder last season. He fell to 33.5 percent this season, and James often had to deal with cramped driving lanes as a result.
