That's my point. His rate has been really low this year, but he's been settling for them a bit more recently. Just wondering if Doc is going to make him reign it in again.

i don't get your point. his 1.4 3s a game is extremely low even in this small five game sample size. it's less than half the rate of his high volume years on AVERAGE. unless you go full kidd, I don't know how you get Giannis to shoot less than 1 per game.

AJ Green continues to do a lot of things wrong

He looks horrible in like 90% of the game lately and then he'll bury a big three or two in the 4th quarters.

He's a complementary player who's not being put in his best position to complement.

He shot a total of 10 threes in 6 games during February. The month before he shot 11 threes in 15 games. He shot more threes in less games over the previous month than he was leading up until that. Only 4 threes in December.

Damn, would have been nice to have that bucket at the end.
I'm against picketing but I don't know how to show it.

Maybe no more wide open floaters?

That’d be nice

It's a microcosm of how bad of a coach Doc is. Random usage of players, lineups.

If I was Green I'd really need to hold back from punching an official. He stood up Dinwiddie there.

at this point we are talking about .5-1 extra three a game over a small sample size. Part of him settling is he hit a few and tried again. he was 4-10 over last six and he seems to hit one and then try another, which IMHO is different than him just jacking up 3s because he is tired.

Love the Porter/KPJ duo off the bench.

I just noticed it seemed like he was shooting it a bit more. You're the one that needed to litigate it.

We needed to get Prince back in to cover Kyrie. Otherwise how could we do it.

Return to Milwaukee Bucks
