How many Celtics games do you watch? Don't think they make a stat for it and I don't give a *** about stats but what I'm trying to say is that is Marcus Smart will have the most open widest looks of any player I've seen on the Celtics and possibly in the NBA.

resilient part 2 Posted February 22, 2019 Share Posted February 22, 2019 I sure hope Kyrie comes through in the clutch like he is known to do because at this point Kyrie is killing Boston with his forced shots Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And I'm telling you, this year, he's making them at a good clip. Catch-and-shoot threes are usually the most open looks, and he's hitting them. Period. Your eyes are wrong.

He only shoots 34% on wide open shots (nearest defender is further than 6 feet). 36% on open shots (defender between 4-6 feet). 42% on tightly contested shots (defender 2-4 feet).

Okay since you stats freaks love your little analytics Stats, James Harden is not even in the top 40 in shooting percentage from 3. Yet James Harden is clearly a top 3 shooter Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And you are right. 2.8 of his 4.4 attempts are considered wide open. Another 1.4 are considered open. Leaving only .2 of his attempts being tight or very tightly contested.

Crazy that "stats freaks that love little analytics stats" are the ones who are running most teams and make up a large portion of NBA FOs. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was I. Also, watching the Bucks, all I can think is, man Khris Middleton is HIGHLY replaceable. I really hope they don't pay the man this offseason.

An analytics don't win championships Talent does So you think James Harden is a better three-point shooter than Steph, KD, Klay, PG, and Kyrie? That's four off the top of my head. Not to mention guys like Redick, Hield, Danny Green, and Kyle Korver. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

James Harden is one of the top shooters in NBA history but at this time I'm trying to enjoy this last three point five seconds of the Bucks game so I don't care where he is on my current list Edited February 22, 2019 by resilient part 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
