Is it me or did somebody tell Ariza that he can hit three's or he maybe the next Reggie Miller.
What the hell is going on with him chukking up three's every chance he gets.
I mean give me a break, he isnt consistant enough, and lately he has been doing it at the worst time of the game.
All in the 4TH QT while were down by only a few points, I see no discipline with this team specially when were only down by a few points, why are we putting the ball in Arizas hand instead of Kobe and Pau.

I think it's because he wants to prove to teams that he can be a 3pt threat which he's not. I read article about a month or two ago which states that he's been working on his 3pt shot all summer and became more confident using it.

In the beginning of the season he was awesome at the 3pt but since then have been horrible. Now, everytime i see him chuck one up.. i cringe.. lol then if he makes it.. i give out a long breather lol.

No offense to ariza, he's awesome with everything else.. just the 3pt shot that im still weary about.

The other team leaves him wide open and he's not THAT bad at it so he has to.

Phil Jackson's methods. Trust me.. his threes are intended.
Phil uses the regular season to develop players.

Ariza is more or less our future "star" if he really develops. Think about it, his defensive abilities PLUS a tuned up game?
