This is a classic example of small sample size. He'll eventually revert back to the mean.

He improved last season, and he’s improved again this season, but what exactly he’s improved to is still up in the air. Even just 70% FT would be amazing for him.

Every NBA player should be able to shoot 75%+ from the line there really isn't any excuse

If the league changed the rules so that if you made both your freethrows you'll earn 3 points instead of 2, everyone will start to shoot atleast 75% from the line.

And are low key clueless making threads like this for a 7 game sample size.

20 game sample size at least before pointing out any stats..within 10 games there is too much fluctuation game to game and therefore not a reliable indicator of anything.

To be honest, the difference between my actions when DeAndre Jordan is shooting 81% compared to when he's shooting 52% are negligible, if existing at all. Perhaps this is what's causing the confusion?

For the uninitiated, he changed his footing on his freethrows, which leads me to believe he can sustain at +75%.

If the league changed the rules so that if you made both your freethrows you'll earn 3 points instead of 2, everyone will start to shoot atleast 75% from the line.

Actually the rule should be on shooting foul...

2 points for shooter OR 2 free throws. If you miss 1 or both free throws other team gets ball. If you make 2 offense retains ball. If you elect to take 2 points other teams ball.

Note: obviously refs have to be schooled on what is shooting foul vs. on the floor or common foul.
