    Image says it all. I had no idea how much our boys are scorching it until this comparison.

    Harden and Anderson are sniping. Gordon, on the other hand, seems to be shooting blind lately. He's only shooting 33% on 3's. In the pre-season, I thought he was about to be lethal. Like Kyle Korver, but with skills other than shooting the 3. The season's still young, so there's still time.

    He got fouled in that last Memphis preseason game.

    Fell to the ground and got a nasty floor burn on his shooting thumb.

    He started out very poorly for the season until that started.

    After it healed he got hot for a couple games and has been average or so since.

    He's still elite.

    Last season, we got 4. Gordon, Ryno, Harden and Ariza were in top 10 3PM.

    Ariza didn't seem like a sniper. He made a lot in volume but I dunno about sniper

    Couldn’t help but notice that Paul is a shooter as well. Maybe in time his stats will show he is “sniper”, too.

    So true. Harden is completely overrated. The popcorn he sold me had way too much butter and my car
    had a scratch on the door after his valet service. Trade the bum!!

    I think we should trade CP3, Harden, Gordon and Anderson for Westbrook, Melo and PG13....;)

    Don't want to jinx it with its own thread, but are we just going to ignore Ryno is shooting better at Home and Away than the GOAT Curry

    Anderson
    Home: 33%
    Away: 43.5%
    Total: 40%​

    Curry:
    Home: 30.7%
    Away: 43%
    Total: 37%​

    Some announcers call a long 3 'Curry Land'
    Sounds like they should change it to "Andy Land' :)

    Ok, then let’s put it this way : there are only 3 entire teams shooting the 3 worse than Gordon right now.

    And if that's not convincing enough, at 33%, Gordon is shooting the same as Ryan Anderson shot st Home, last year. :eek:
