    encouraging signs last night, thats what both scoot & we as fans need

    surely it wont happen every game from now on, but if it happens more often than not, that would be really good

    coaching staff will tell him what he needs to do, so as long as hes a hard working player, he should improve

    Sound like all the message board geniuses saying Brandon Miller wouldn’t be able to get his shot off in the NBA lol

    Scoot had a good game. His shot looked so much better than last game.

    I hate seeing stats that are not normalized to minutes played. Also show 2pt% separate from 3pt%.

    With Scoot's best game of the season under his belt, I wanted to take a look at how he's doing compared to others in his draft class. Here's this year's draft class sorted by Win-Share -

    I was impressed to see Camara at #13.

    As for Scoot, I'm rooting for him...

    Agreed. Like any stat, it has more meaning the larger the sample size.

    I liked what Scoot said in his post game interview after Clippers game. A reporter threw some good Scoot stats out there, and Henderson replied, "none of that stuff matters, because we didn't win the game. I just want to help the team win."

    that's real stuff, Scoot isn't out there to sugarcoat the Blazers. He wants to win, period .

    17th is incredible considering his team has lost more than 17 games in a row!

    If I recall, wasn't Scoot clocked as a damned fast player driving the lane this season?

    According to Haberstroh, Second Spectrum says Scoot has clocked the fastest speed on court in the NBA this season.

    Does that mean overall for all of his possessions?

    No, it just means he was clocked at the very highest top speed in one moment, as far as I understood from the broadcast.

    It's useful if someone is saying that Scoot is not above-average in that capacity.
