also a big Ariza fan. I saw he hit alot of 3's last game but before then had fell way off since the hot start. What has been the problem? Was he just cold or was he not getting the same open looks as he was to start the year?

Injuries to our interior game probably haven't helped much.

1st 10 games (with Dwight) 2.7-6.3 : 0.428
Games 11-19 (sans Dwight) 2.3-7.6 : 0.302

We also lost Jones after game 4

Though he'd already tailed off a bit in those first 10 by game 7.
I do expect him to end the season around at least .385, if everyone gets back on the court.

its all in his head. he's missing a lot of open shots. a healthy team would've kept his shooting from going to **** but there's no excuse for him now. if you looka this gamelog there's only 3 games where he shot above 40% from the field since nov 12, and two of those games were 40% and 41%, so not that good either. thats bad, like rafer alston bad. he's in a nasty slump. you would think the 3rd/4th option would step up when the team is depleted with injuries

its good that he still has the confidence to shoot and the brains not jack up 20 shots. thank god he does more than shoot threes
