    He's been fillin it up lately though man. ESPN is broken or I could tell you his L10 stats but when I looked the other day he was shooting better from the field and better from three than his career averages. He has really turned it around.

    Just for the month of February, he's playing much much better.

    People actually wanted him to stop shooting at one point lolol. A vet like Roco, it was just a matter of time until he settled in. All the little things he does also remind me of Gerald Wallace, who was my favorite non blazer in the league before we got him.

    His stats are getting better too. Box scores are mostly about offense anyway.

    I’m curious whether his respectable 3 point shooting average reflects a consistent shooting number or has always been what we’ve seen this season: a lot of nights where he’s dead cold and a few nights where he’s red hot.

    Hello darkness, my old friend
    In terms of percentage, that's generally true for the majority of guys who aren't high-volume three-point shooters. When one successful shot is the difference between an excellent night (2/5 from three) and a terrible night (1/5 from three), you're going to see high variance night to night.

    That’s true. I was just looking at the last 3 games where he went 0-5 from 3 against the Nuggets and Lakers and then last night where he went 5-7.

    RoCo is more like 4/4 and 0/4 any given night. He's significantly more extreme in that respect.

    I've wondered if this is validated by the numbers. Sure feels this way doesn't it?
