    Collins looks so good on defense and that’s why he deserves the starting lineup. His offense will come but his defense is basically there already

    Collins is playing well. That shot is gonna get in eventually. Reminds me of a young Sheed

    I don't care. A contested 20 footer is a bad shot if 1 pass away you can get a WIDE OPEN straight on 3 pointer.
    Learn the game then post.

    You guys never say shit when Dame shoots half court 3s with 20 seconds left on the clock but one of the best IF NOT the best mid range shooter in the game shoots it it’s a hissy fit

    That's not a low% shot for CJ. It was still a bizarre decision I agree.

    A contested 2 pointer is a low % shot for any player when 1 pass away there is a stand still, wide open player from three.
    It's common basketball knowledge.
    Make the correct basketball play.

    I don’t agree with this and I believe most of the forum would say the same

    Collins is a 22% three point shooter and 0/5 from field tonight. That is 50% shot for CJ.
