If I'm interpreting this correctly, he was a slasher 6 years ago when he was young, not since then?
Well I agree that we're not a legit contender. There are teams that are flat out better than us.
One thing to keep in mind is that comparisons to history when it comes to volume of threes current teams are taking is always going to be...
I'd like to see the stats then. Because maybe I'm wrong. But from what I have seen via eye test - and it seems to be a common opinion on...
It's right in there: missed 3-pointers are more likely to result in offensive rebounds than missed midrange jumpshots.
This has to be a joke. What would 3PA be replaced with? The only way to get more efficient is to take more layups.
Ariza is NOT a good slasher or finisher. He just isn't. All of us remember the 2009-10 Ariza and not much has changed for him in that arena.
I would question that. I WISH we had more players that could finish at the rim and slash. Do we? If we did our team would be a different team....
' In the NBA, 3-point shots are much better options than midrange shots for 2 reasons: 1) The decreased FG% is more than compensated by a higher...

Does anyone know what this means? May be the most meaningless group of words ever. The people that have it in their minds to be 'anti analytics'...
That's EXACTLY what we are doing? Emphasizing corner threes, having players take their threes in more favorable positions, only when they are...
and LPH needs to watch more Rockets games if he thinks all we do is come down the court and hoist threes without moving the ball. Most of our...
I ask LPH again if he thinks Trevor or Pat can shoot 50% on open two pointers in the midrange. I wish they could, but I doubt it.
Yes, of course it is. Because there are tons of posters here to whom it never registered that shooting 33% from three is the same production as...
The real answer is what Josh Smith, Brewer and Dmo give us inside. And we are doing well with that, but we have room for improvement - most...
Our offense is built to maximize the abilities of our limited offensive players. GSW and SAS take a ton of threes. A TON. But they also have...
The point is that in a perfect world we have Kyle korver on our team but we don't. We have Ariza and Bev. And they get a ton of open threes....
Not one single person has said that they were.
