    I’m sure if he didn’t take as many contested 3s it would definitely be there. Also just the sheer volume will drop that percentage.

    Except he seems to shoot better on contested 3's than uncontested to be honest

    facts...we were so irrelevant...we were the Charlotte Hornets of the WC, and we’ll go right back to being that once he’s gone

    we were seriously about to embark on a future led by Lin and Parsons before Presti fcked up...the team was trash, so idiots will bring up that we would’ve had a great lotto pick, but peep how absolute garbage that draft was with the 1st 10 selections being Bennett, Oladipo, Otto Porter, Cody Zeller, Alex Len, Noel, McLemore, KCP, Trey Burke, and CJ McCollum

    then it’s on to the next draft where we might end up with an Andrew Wiggins, Jabari Parker, or injured/immature Embiid who is nowhere close to Harden if we’re lucky

    started noticing this during the rico hines runs, it's a very deadly move when his overall arsenal basically prevents the defender from committing to a strategy vs any particular move, might be somewhat inspired by curry

    You missed one more counter move, arguably the best one in fact. The move he used on Paul George that left him completely stumped. Faking the stepback entirely with an almost double dribble crossover and then driving hard to the basket. That move was absolute magic.
