    he couldn't shoot to save his life last season and most of this season. it's no shocker that he gets more reps and minutes and his shooting percentages go up. taking more shots and getting into a flow is vital for shooters.

    Folks who said such hogwash never watched him in college. He was an excellent shooter in college. He also has good form.

    His jumper has been much improved this entire season. If you can't see that, you're blind.

    MAybe 2-8 from 3 prior to tonight is too small of a sample to judge him on. From what I know he was a acceptable deep threat in College. He has a decent form. I don't know that he'll ever be more than a 36% from 3 kind of guy but I think that is acceptable from someone who makes up for that by getting to the line a ton.
