    Consider C.J. McCollum. Many might not even consider McCollum to be the best shooter on his own team, what with Damian Lillard hoisting up threes from crazier depths by the day. Yet in terms of volume and percentage on long-range attempts, only three players in the league really rival him: Curry, his splash kin Klay Thompson, and Clippers sharpshooter J.J. Redick. Under cover of a broader breakout season, McCollum casually climbed to the peak of the single most important craft in the sport.

    So New Orleans should want to trade us Anthony Davis for him, right?

    Uncalled for. Just because we can't count on him, you didn't have to call him a pansy.
