36.9% on 4.1 attempts vs 36.2% on 9.3 attempts
:mjlol:

Trae is not an average 3PT shooter.
Shooting more when you don't make them at a high clip isn't a good idea.

You have 6 seasons of him shooting at or below league average (majority below). You have zero argument beyond "I'm a stan and I say so"


Thanks for stopping by

Except shooting over twice as much as the "league average" while being .7% less is a perfectly fine idea :mjlol:

36.9% on 4.1 attempts vs 36.2% on 9.3 attempts :mjlol:

He has 3 seasons above 36% and apparently shoots better the more he shoots.

Trae is not an average 3PT shooter. You have zero argument outside of "I'm a hater and I say so".

This is my last original response to you.

@Shadow King while you're angry dapping all these posts, I got one more for you

What does Trae "not an average 3 point shooter" Youngs playoff 3% look like ?


Well would you look at that, 29% career, and never shot over 33%. You're right, he's not average, he's worse :leon:

Btw @Shadow King

College? 36%

FIBA ? 19% :scusthov:


So you're right. I have no argument other than the totality of his college, FIBA, NBA Regular season and Playoff career :ehh:

5: Embid/Davis
4: Bron/KD/Green
3: Tatum/Leonard
2: Booker/Edwards
1: Curry/Lillard/Fox
:patrice:
Bam wants to run as well. We need one more solid shooter. Maybe Maxey. We really don’t have a true lead guard. Haliburton or Trey but Hali got chewed up and Trey can’t shoot and holds the ball. Bridges deserves a spot in my opinion. Young, plays D, and shoots the 3.

Tough decisions and a lot of egos. How many of these players will be healthy next year anyway.

Honestly Green should step back or become a coach. He adds no real value if everybody is healthy. No minutes for him unless they go jumbo and put Bron/KD at 3 then Tatum/Leonard at the 2. I don’t trust Green as a swing at this point of his career.

Thoughts?


Curry and Lillard need to sit this one out. When they play international ball, they turn into undersized 2 guards jacking up logo 3's

Fox can't be the only real point guard. Need to add Haliburton or Trae

I’d take Green out for George and take Lillard out for White.

That’s the squad! Does Greyson play defense? He’s shooting lights out this year. Caruso deserves a look as well.

Be interesting to see if all these names being mentioned actually end up on this list

My favorite thing about USA Basketball is they don’t let anyone try out anymore after making that a thing for 2006-2012.

The program isn’t serious.

I would add Caruso. Need someone to do the dirty work, and he's a decent ball handler as well
