Also Harden's best defensive involvment of the game...

Never fails to bring a smile to my face. No matter how many hours straight I burn it into my retinas. Ersan hits that 3 right?

Basically a 5.5% improvement every month. Given his volume that is a low-key huge development. If toward the end of the season and into the playoffs he's somewhere around 74-75% that would be golden.

I still for the life of me, want to strangle whoever convinced him a 20 second free throw routine was a good idea. I could be wrong, but I don't recall him coming to the NBA with such a ridiculous routine.

Giannis 3 pt percentage currently sits at 33.2%

Notables he's ahead of...

Rudy Gay - 33.1
Marcus Smart - 33.0
Dario Saric - 32.5
Jamal Murray - 32.2
Luka Doncic - 31.7 (on 8.9 attempts / game) :ouch:

Gary Harris - 31.6
Andrew Wiggins - 31.4
Bradley Beal - 30.9

Seriously what the heck is wrong with Bradley Beal and why is no one talking about it?

He needs a change of scenery badly. He got paid but his team sucks so it seems like he's just going through the motions.

Missed this yesterday. Super impressive considering where he came from and his journey in becoming a star.

I remember Giannis' HOF probability being around 11.5 at some point this season on bball reference and it's been going down lately for some reason. I've been checking it since he won MVP just to see what the bump would be for winning it and it didn't move up till the season started. It's only at 10.4 now. What the f*ck, man?

I feel like Pete Maravich has a better than 10.18% chance of making the Hall of Fame but hey let's go with it.

His relationship with Kobe was known and was about to deepen this summer as he was gonna work out with him. This probably hits even closer to home for him than most.

RiotPunch · Post #976 » by **RiotPunch** » Mon Jan 27, 2020 12:52 am

Has to be because of Kobe. He was like a big brother and true mentor for Giannis.

Giannis doesn't train with current guys. Kobe was his guy, similar mindset and work ethic. Besides that, the became mates. Not to make this about giannis because kobe passing is everyone's loss but giannis also losing his dad really sucks.

Alternatively, could be because Twitter is an absolute nightmare.

Post #980 » by **humanrefutation** » Mon Jan 27, 2020 2:17 am

There was definitely a point today where Twitter became too much. For all of the good content you'll come across, there's a whole lot of BS, especially when there's major news breaking.
