    By the way, Hawes is #1 at 6 of 7. Ariza is #2.

    I love what travis is bringing to the blazers. If he can display this type of all around game consistently I'd be excited to see him start. What a game.

    too bad they're all from the corners and don't really spread the floor at all (and are easy to defend as two angles are already cut off). 3 points is three points, but sitting in that corner doesn't help his teammates whatsoever (when he's not shooting it)

    Huh? It absolutely spreads the floor. Isn't that what James Jones did last season?

    Furthermore, the Spurs have won titles because Bruce Bowen hits that shot.

    Hawes is so fucking money it's disgusting. The guy looks like one of the most pure shooters in the league... and he's a 20 year-old seven footer.

    Kudos to Outlaw for his shooting so far... he's been amazing from beyond the arc!

    Thank you! Exactly. Why can't everyone post like you? I say something nice about a player on our team and people get mad at me. It's so weird.

    my best guess is that posters have their long time favorite players and root for their guy (and against his competition for minutes) almost ahead of the team's success.

    Like I was saying.... Rice just said it after Travis hit a three.... Outlaw is the 5th best three point shooter in the league now. 64%.

    Trout is really playing well. I know I said earlier he is probably the odd man out, but I just don't know. With Batum, Webster, & Outlaw we are really stacked at SF.

    Why don't you just wait until the end of the season, when we'll likely have a better sample size?

    Because by the middle of the season KingSpeed will be saying Outlaw is one of the worst three point shooters in the league.

    Outlaw shot great from the three point line last season. In a full season. Shot better than Webster.
