    He hasn't done anything all year besides opening night vs. Portland.

    Here we go again, people know he's white and plays SG and asume he's a great three point shooter when he's not. 36% is not a great percentage from three.

    36% isn't that bad. Its not good or bad. Most guys shoot just about 40% ish.

    Richie Frahm is a skinny white 'shooter' from Gonzaga. He shoots a decent percentage but he's not good at much of anything. He had some big games for Portland last year.

    35 percent or higher means that they can shoot 3 pointers. He IS a good 3 point shooter. I've seen him play. That's what he specializes in.

    If you specialize for 35% shooting you shouldn't be in the league. He is a decent three point shooter, a streaky one, but saying 35% is good is just flat out lowering your standards. 40% is good. Anything higher like 44% is great.

    So there are only 2 great 3 point shooters? [​IMG] You expect too much, BCBI think anything over .400 is really good but a .360 percent shooter is good in my books.

    Their are only 3-4 great rebounders in the game along with shotblockers...it's no different.

    There are more great 3 point shooters then great shot blockers and rebounders. You really have to lower your standards BCB. The fact is, i said that he is a very good 3 point shooter. Maybe I exagerated but he is still a good 3 pt shooter.
