    Yea Farmar should get a nice deal because I think he could be a great point guard and has a nice style of attacking the basket. He's a great shooter.

    I do like how he finishes around the rim, but I wouldn't call him a great shooter at this point in his career. He improved his outside touch from his rookie season, but he needs to be more consistent on catch and shoot opportunities from 23 feet and out.

    I would also like to see Farmar develop a mid-range game to take advantage of his athleticism and quick hops. If he could develop a nice runner off the dribble and jab step 12-foot jumper it would open up the court for him offensively.

    Plus he needs to make strides defensively as I mentioned above.

    I guess I wouldn`t call him a great shooter, but 37% is pretty good. Not many guys hit 40%.

    Shoot better at 3 point range (37% is his current number) - which happens to be better than Antoine Walker ever has shot in his career. Kobe has only had 2 seasons in his entire career higher than that.

    Edit: insterted Walker.

    Pretty good seems a little overzealous too; I'd like to see him hit at a higher quantity (instead of relying on per 36 numbers for example).
