    Who is this "Vernon Maxwell" guy? He sounds terrible.

    And I doubt a QOF like the OP even knows who Maxwell is.

    I'll tell you, if you go on record answering this question: Who will hit their first one ... the ROY Ben Simmons or Zhou? :D

    I'm also curious if there was a similar thread when Marcus Morris was 0-6. Will Zhou make one before Morris did on his 9th attempt?

    He’s a lotto ticket, like Thabeet with much less of an opportunity cost.

    I give him as little a chance of panning out as any of the other haters on here, but who knows. Worse-looking shooters have learned to shoot in NBA history (Shawn Marion anyone?).

    I don't know but I'm sure there weren't Marcus Morris highlight videos when he scores 2 points in a game

    Zhou made 3 of 21 3 pointers against summer league competition and personally witnessed this, so you know if I come to Clutchfans and people are raving about his 3 point shooting, it doesn't match reality of what I saw.

    Then you get people asking why he's not playing the post etc, aka they don't watch the Rockets and know how this offense works.

    Simmons main role is not jacking up 3s. So far , Zhou's role in summer league and the NBA are the same on the offensive side, it's to jack up 3s.

    So Qi fans made highlights of him every game even though there was nothing to show for it. SO??? Why did it bother you so much?

    Get off your high horse and get over it.

    this is just a poll of when Qi will hit a 3 pointer.

    apparently you would like to see a highlight video of it at some point.
    that's why there's a poll

    you should filter your data for centers over 7 foot who camp at the 3 point line.

    Lmao Tinman desperately trying to find similarities between Zhou and Lin and tries to hate on Zhou for no apparent reason. The point you're trying to make sucks.

    Zhou attempted 6 three pointers in the NBA. He's being told by the coaches to shoot 3s and never was an excellent three point shooter. Some players go for 0-6 in a single game. If Zgou makes the next 4 he's be at 40%.

    Hating on a rookie because he missed 6 threes in 3-4 games lmao. How lame can you get?

    LOL
    Migos , nobody believes you care about the Rockets!

    The fact you have no idea that the Rockets shoot 3 pointers is a clear give away!

    What does the level of competition have to do with whether or not he can make an open/contested three-point shot? These factors may affect it though: the length of the 3-point line in the NBA is further out than the FIBA/CBA line, the pace/schedule, and most importantly: he has never been known as a 3-point shooter. Take that for facts, granite, or fool's gold.

    CBA Makes-Attempts per game:
    '16-17: .5-1.2
    '15-'16: .2-.4
    '14-'15: 0.0-.3

    Now let the inane drivel commence once again. Just wish him the best. Maybe his 3-point shot can develop half as well as Clint Capela's FT% after he missed his first 15 or so.

    Since Zhou is currently a 4, why don't we just filter by Rockets' stretch 4s?

    When we do that, we first wonder: "Why wasn't there a similar thread when Marcus Morris was 0-6?" But we all know the answer to that.

    So answer me this: Will Zhou make one before Morris did on his 9th attempt? Come on, go on record by answering the question? You put the Poll on Public, so don't be shy about a prediction of Zhou versus Morris going 0-8?
