    Are they any doubters now that Travis is one of the best three point shooters in the league?

    Last year five players played more minutes per game than Outlaw did. He's currently third on the team in MPG, but I think that his minutes will go down when Webster gets back.

    There are people in this thread who doubted him. One told me to "Stop" when all I did was post a fact.

    He was 8th in the league going into tonight's game. He shot 3 of 4 tonight. The title of this thread holds. He's one of the best in the league.

    sadly zach i think your rep has been shot by the inane threads claiming checkmate and comparing Jack to Harris based off of one nights performance. while i don't agree with most of your posts, i do at least find them amusing.

    you keep stating he's "one of the best", i'd love to know what one of means in your mind? top 10, 15, 30? just curious.

    He's 8th in the league and made 3 of 4 tonight. That's one of the best.

    Also- Of the 7 people in front of Travis (and he probably passed a few tonight), he has shot double the amount of 5 of those players so what Travis is doing is even more impressive.

    bigb- this isn't about my rep. This is about fact. Three point percentage is not an opinion.

    By the way, going into tonight's game, Rudy was 27, Batum was 35, and Blake was 42.

    Another fact for you all- We are THE best three point shooting team in the league.

    Correct. It's a way of life. Just ask Travis.

    It sure is nice to have guys who can actually play and shoot the ball.
    I remember when we brought in guys like Richie Frahm, Matt Carroll, Juan Dixon, Voshon Lenard, Charles Smith and Van Exel to be our outside threats.. how sad a state of affairs that was.
