Jason Tatum takes the same amount of shots and attempts the same amount of free throws as SGA

North Jersey but I miss Cali :sadcam:
But he attempts twice as many 3 point attempts. As a result. SGA averages 5 more points a game and shoots 52% overall compared to Tatum's 45%. SGA also shoots a higher 3point percentage. at 37% compared to 44%.


Unless a player is shooting 40% from 3 consistently, I don't understand the logic in shooting that many 3's. Anthony Edwards would average 30 a game if 1/2 his shots wasn't 3 pointers. :mindblown: and even if you shoot 40% (edwards is shooting 39%), you limit your overall output. Despite all of the 3's Curry takes, he's only averaged 30 twice in his career. He's leading the league in 3 pointers made this year but is only averaging 24 a game. What makes Curry great is the timing of when he shoots/makes 3's. And it can't really be duplicated.

Unfortunately the math says all those guys should take even more 3s, but I do think you lose something in your game when teams know you're not really looking to attack half the time

But shooting 33% from 3 = 50% from 2 statistically

Tatum and Boston already won a ring with this formula

What is there to argue against...

LMAO

THEY WON A RING BECAUSE
THEY HAD THE MOST STACKED TEAM.

THIS FORMULA DIDNT WORK
IN THE MANY YEARS PRIOR
BEFORE THEY STACKED THE DECK
PLUS TATUM WAS MID
IN THE FINALS

NO ONE IS TAKING
AWAY FROM THEIR CHIP.
THEIR CHIP IS LEGIT.

IM SIMPLY POINTING OUT
THE ERROR IN YOUR POST.

JACKING ALL OF THOSE THREES
WAS NOT THE REASON THEY WON.

THEY HAD THE BEST ROSTER
IN THE NBA

They play great as a team with their own formula, not a Stacked Superteam. This is what the Coli/Media were saying before the 2023-2024 season

- "Celtics don't have a Top 5 player so they can't win", right?
- "Celtics lost their heart and soul Marcus Smart, and Grant Williams, they soft now", right?
- "Jrue Holiday is washed", right?
- "Porzingis is injury prone that won't be a factor in the playoffs", right?
- "Who the hell would pay $300 mill each on Jayson and Jaylen, are they crazy", right?


Media/Fans can't backtrack now after the trades became a success :blessed:

Even a broke clock is right two times day, Curry's bread and butter is the 3 ball, majority of his shots are 3-s so of course it will look like immaculate timing/makes. He's just as bad as Tatum and Edwards being 3 happy. Unfortunately he's limited to that method of scoring to get his #'s though. Edwards and to a lesser degree Tatum could follow a similar SGA game flow if they wanted too.

I need people on record saying the Celtics had the best roster prior to winning
