    Most statistics don't shock me.

    This statistic shocked me.

    I'd round it off to 30% for Rubio's benefit. It would do him good to reflect on his career and say " I was a 30% 3 point shooter over a stretch of games during one point in my career!!"

    a stretch that included one 6-9 game.
    He's 2-18 in the other 10....= .111%

    No, because it went in.

    ATL missed a runner and Harden was fouled on the rebound, hit 1-2 FT's to win the game.

    Media just won't show it to us :(

    I used to say this, but isn't X-factor an unpredictable influence? Like the player who can go off, but you can't count on him? Kind of like Josh Smith in 2015. Or when Dekker went off for 30 against the Grizzlies.

    Gordon is actually one of our critical core pieces. He has to be there, and he has to be consistent, or there will not be winning.

    Isn't Gordon exactly like this?

    Who would have thought the law of averages would play out? I mean your hot then your cold and at the end you finish about 38% like he has his whole career...

    Didn't realize Brewer had been on a hot streak the last 11 games. Nice going CB

    Both he and Morey said so

    He even said he is learning to play through the pain

    If you watch him compared to early in the season, you can definitely see the difference

    Brewer has never shot the 3 point well. The best 3 he takes is when he doesn't shoot at all

    I've posted this fact in various threads over the years. Corey Brewer's career 3pt average is 28%. He had a hot streak during his first season with us, and many people here thought he was a good 3pt shooter. He never was a 3pt threat. I've never had high expectation on Brewer's shooting. It's really silly to beat your head about it.

    Brewer's value is in his disruptive defensive presence and the fast break he creates. He's pretty useless in a half court offense.

    Guys I think Eric has read this post and is very ashamed of himself. I let him know how close to the worst dishonor he could have as a shooter he has become. He is correcting the path and Corey might remain king.

    Recently yes. I just meant we need to be able to rely on him. More than an X-factor.

    Don't forget, Corey is a 2x NCAA champ AND an NBA champion. He even dropped 51 on the Rockets before joining us. He is just in mourning over his pet goat.

    We know. He was my favorite Rocket when we first signed him. This doesn't change the fact that he is a major problem now.
