Is it me or has Kobe's range improved this year? He is consistently taking and making more threes and from deeper range than I ever remembered him being able to do. Then in the all-star game workouts he was the first western player to hit it from half-line and did it in the stars challenge. Currently shooting .351 from downtown.
Yeah- he's def. improved his 3pt shooting, and no one's paying much attention, you also have to take into account that there are many a three he has to take deeper in the shot clock that are sometimes forced, driving that percentage down.
He does have the NBA record of most 3s in a game. I love how hes not even a 3 point shooter and he has the record lol! That's why people hate him. HATERS!!!
Some of those threes are head-scratchers though ... like that one he hit against golden state .... he made it, but why did he even shoot it?
You guys do remember that game right??? Damn, I can't remember the story but someone told Kobe my grandma can shoot 3-pointers better than you. THAT SAME EXACT NIGHT, he made 12 in one game, it was absolutely unbelievable. Who remembers the exact story? i'm blanking out right now

^ And after that held a charity event featuring Simers daughter to 1) raise money for a good cause and 2) prove him wrong.
