    Last season I asked if you would be a Blazer fan if Meyers were traded, haven't seen one swish3 post yet and you answered you would be...just wondering if you were still following the Blazers or had moved to a Miami forum?

    I was hoping for a swish3 visit about Dame's phenomenal 3 pt shooting percentage so far...or how Skal needs to be chucking up some deep swish3s

    Lord! I wish there were some knowledgeable Basketball fans in Portland.
    They might even force the Blazers to compete.

    Yes, it takes knowledgeable fans to stop being fans so the team will not have fans so nobody will be knowledgeable.

    Hi Riverman. Yes, I am a Blazer fan who advocates swish3 shooting, and imagines that we may find enough to score 15+ per game and win. To date, the swish3 leaders based on 7 games are Rodney (50%), Zach (41.9%), Mario (41.2%), Simons (40.9%), and Dame (40.3%). The team average of 38.7% is good enough to rank 5th, but at 31.7 3PA/G we rank 20th, which is not enough. To win this season, we will need about 39 3PA to get the 15 scores that we need. I hope that CJ will improve to 40%+ and we will see more drive and kick out plays to succeed based on swish3 scoring.

    Looking at the stats and the teams with the best record as of now it shows no real statistical advantage to shooting more 3's.

    Thank you for posting here! Glad to see you on the forum and I agree...we need more swish 3 shooting from guys not named Dame. Shoutout to Meyers....he's beasting and has the highest 3pt shooting percentage in the nba this season as of yesterday!

    b
    bullshit...Meyers had 21 pts 4 boards 3 steals one assist and one block just this week...same amount of rebounds Skal got as a matter of fact..he played about 16 minutes in a recent game that you are probably referencing...Meyers is doing well in Miami
