Chris Paul was the only Rocket smart enough to shoot mid range

We missed like 27 3's in a row or something

Common sense tells us that maybe we should change it up. CP3 basketball IQ through the roofs. He wouldn't have let this **** happen

 

@vlaurelio thoughts?

 

can our players even hit 2's doe?

seems like they've only practiced 3's since training camp. the anthony didn't equip them with any backup plans.

 

Nah man @SamFisher told me otherwise. The midrange is useless. GS only uses it for funzzzies.

I trust his Tier IV law school degree over you guys. *Especially* when it comes to statistical reasoning...

 

I have my doubts about Tucker, Ariza, Green hitting any mid range jump shots.

Also I don't know how they can get to spots to hit jump shots when they can't dribble.

 

Cp3 is the only one who has that midrange game though.

I dont think its an issue of whos smart enough to shoot midrange, its an issue of whos comfortable enough to shoot mid range

 

A pull up jump shot is really hard. The only ones taking mid range shots on their team tonight was really just Durant...LOL unbelievable.

 

Harden has the mid range game but he has been conditioned for the layup or the 3.

He has the mid range jumper after coming off the screen anytime he wants.

No one is stopping him to step back into a 2 point shot right around the free throw line either right as soon as he drives and his defender's momentum is towards the basket. That should be money shot for Hardens driving game. But Rockets system has taken it out of his game.

 

Harden needs to take mid range if he's open. He needs to be able to shoot 60% from it.

 

Should be 5 stars thread.

 

Yeah, cp3 would've taken pressure mid range shot after pressure mid-range shot in both game 6 and 7.

Missed his defense too. I think we would've been screwed by foster If it was close.

They had a five point handicap.

 

So many were open too. Key injuries. No inside presence, too many liabilities, and too much pressure on JH and EG to drive it. Fatigue. Game over.

Edit: oh yes, and the refs.

 

Harden has a midrange game, he’s just completely abandoned it...a great scorer like him shouldn’t restrict himself to just layups and threes...I wish he’d go back to 14-15 where he took advantage of all areas of the court

 

This is the truth. You knew the refs were coming.
