Pretty amazing shots to win the game - gotta give him credit. Clutch shots. If he continues to play like that I'll change my opinion of him. But...
I like Wes' optimism and mindset. But he's wrong.
What level of success? Borderline playoffs? Then yes, he is absolutely essential. I just don't think he's the sort of player you can build around...
Talking career. For his career there was one season (last season) where he shot better than the average PF. This season he's shooting a career low...
Well then there was one season (last season, when shooting percentages for most players were down) where he was a "good" shooter. Again, let's...
Yeah, I stand by all of those statements. I may have drawn in a little hyperbole by saying he's the least coordinated PF in the league, but he IS...
Ugh, mags - I explained it to you already. And where did I ever say he was a "terrible outside shooter"? If I did, I was wrong - I've always said...
What's it matter? This directly measures the player's ability to put the ball through the hoop from various ranges - it measures their ability to...
I would have. Now, I'm not as sure. Still might though...might.
I do believe his mid-range has actually improved quite a bit. But his typical shot, yes it's worse than ever and it was never that great to begin...
What's maddening is that he climbs the ranks dramatically as he gets closer to the hoop (until the At Rim section) but his attempts are inverse to...
Here you go - weed out anyone shooting less than 1 shot from 16-23' and LMA is the 16th best PF at shooting from his "sweet spot" range:...
You cherry pick your stats, and I'll cherry pick mine - at least when I pick mine I remain consistent with them rather than trying to search for ANY...
And I think there are 30 NBA coaches and GMs who would rather have Monroe at C than LMA. We wouldn't be trading for Monroe to play him at PF. One of...
Whatever. I'm fully aware that I'm in the minority and it'll be about another 3 years before people really start to come around. I mean, how many...
Okay. I understand that. I'm not arguing here, just thought it was interesting that Rondo isn't nearly as terrible shooter as his reputation...
Re: Would your trade Lillard for Rondo? Okay. I'm not disparaging Lillard - I was just very surprised to see that Rondo has a better FG% than...
Re: Would your trade Lillard for Rondo? It's still interesting. At least, I find it interesting when players/coaches get a reputation but the...
Re: Would your trade Lillard for Rondo? I'm assuming this was in response to my post. The numbers are as follows: Rim: Lillard - 57.8%...
Re: Would your trade Lillard for Rondo? Interestingly, Rondo shoots better than Lillard except from 23'+ and the 3'-9' range.
