"He shot a hideous 16 percent from distance last season on 0.8 attempts per game".

You do realize that if he played more and even had 8 attempts, would still be shooting terribly bad..... this is why they use percentages to explain performance regardless of minutes.
:gucci:

Of course more minutes helps but he'll have to deliver averages % wise

My position is that the inconsistent mins is a reason why. He’s a combo F that should be utilized accordingly. He’s a better shooter than the 16% avg, that’s mental

Well, the FACTS suggest differently. They suggest that he is, in fact, a 16% shooter.. Unless he produces better results, those will be his numbers.
:mjgrin:

Now if you're talking about potential, ok - theoretically it could be true that if he plays more and gets more attempts to shoot per game he gets into a better flow, feels less pressure to score every 0.8 shot per game he takes.. that makes sense. But he is in fact a 16% shooter, those are his numbers.

He shot 32% the season prior. 16% was an aberration.
