Jeremy Lin 50-40-90 club watch

OP, if you follow this stat like you say, how can you consider someone shooting 80.7% FTs to be close?

There are 57 players in the 50-40-80 club.
And there are currently 7 players in the 50-40-80 club this year (qualifier is FG%.

Three of them have a much better shot at it than Lin:

• Klay Thompson 54-50-87.5
• Korver 55-51-85.7
• Bargnani 52-44-85.7

Agree with you, at the same time Lin's shot looks much better and seem to be more fluid compared to last season even when he miss his shots. I'm pretty confident his overall shooting % will be much better than last season.

 

He can't keep up shooting like his is now (TS%.671). I don't believe any guard has hit that mark over a full season. (Post players--like, say, Tyson Chandler, have the advantage of getting put-backs and open dunks when there are defensive breakdowns.) As far as I can tell the closest a guard has been to hitting that mark for a season was none other than James Harden in his last season in OKC (.660). That was an incredible season. But Harden is bigger and stronger and is less likely to breakdown when getting hammered in the lane time and time again.

You're just setting yourself up for disappointment to think Lin can keep this up over the long haul of a grueling season. Just hope the figures don't drift downward too much. A .590 TS% over a season (with similar declines in his 2 point and 3 point percentages) would still be awesome.

 

True. But, over the final 38 games of the season last year, he shot .398 from downtown if I remember correctly - and this year his stroke looks better. So there's a decent shot at the 40%. (which a lot of people thought was impossible coming from Lin)

 

Andre igudala is shooting almost 60% from the feild, no way he's going to shoot that way the entire season.

Basically, the season is still young, his stats will drop. I see him settling in at the all-star break at 40-45/30-35/78

 

Just getting 50/40 would be insane. Even 45/38 would be about what we hoped for...I doubt he gets up to 90% free throws but I wouldn't be shocked to see him stay above 40% on his threes

 

We have 72 games left on the season, lol how can you say its a decent shot at 40%? There's absolutely no way to predict at this point.

 

I disagree. Again, follow his stats from the end of last season (or rather, from the end of all star break through the regular season).

He was posting over 45% FG% (or around there), nearly 39% 3 pt shooting, and yeah his FT% you posted sounds about right.

Why you suddenly now think he'd regress to the point that he'd be shooting at %'s he hasn't done for half a year is beyond me. Not only was he hurt, young players DO get better, esp. if you have a sample size of over half a season now (end of last yr + 10 games this season).

Makes me feel like you're just looking at season box score stats or something

 

Refer to my post. Over the last nearly 40 games of last season, he shot almost 40% from 3 pt land. That's a lot of games. Now add 10 more from this season. I'm not sure what your argument is for him shooting 30-35% from 3 pt land and 40-45% from the field lol.

 

the more realistic expectation would be 48/38/80. any player in nba history had improved from 45/33/80 to 50/40/90 or more in a single season? don't think so. you just can't improve your shooting overnight like that.

 

Absolutely delusional

 

50 games is not really that many. i believe a lot of career 35% players have shot over 40% during a 50-game stretch. and if he keeps up with his current hot shooting, teams will adjust and he'll get less open looks. for me to think he's a 40% 3pt shooter he has to do it at least 3 full seasons.

 

3 full seasons? That's as long as the average NBA career and half the career of a lot of All Stars.

That's a crazy standard...

You DO realize only 35 players in the ENTIRE history of the NBA have shot over 40% from 3pt land for 3 full seasons?

http://www.basketball-reference.com...c5comp=gt&c6mult=1.0&c6stat=&order_by=fg3_pct

So THAT's the standard that Lin has to meet before you consider him a 40% shooter? REALLY?

Impossible expectations much?

 

I hope you're wrong!!!!

 

For Jeremy to shoot over 40% from 3pt land, he should shorten his toe...:grin:

 

I think he has a slight chance (5% or fewer) to be a 50-50-80 player this year. He's an elite driver, a decent mid-range shooter and a great 3pt shooter right now. And think about this way: once you combine his shooting skills with his clutch gene and always-good shot selection... Watch out!

 

DeAleck Speaks! He's Alive!

 

Don't mean to thread jack, but Kmart is approaching 50-40-90. He's actually 46-56-92 right now

 

If 80% is "terrible" then what is Dwight's %? Is it deserving the death penalty?

 

i don't expect him to be a 40% 3pt shooter. i see him as a career 35-38% 3pt shooter.
