A reasonable ref, makes sense that I don't know his name.

Again I say, he is a shooter and will start to get it going. but as any shooter can tell you, they need to see the first one go in.

Tatum is shooting what 10% for the season on a ton of looks. Does this mean he can't shoot??

with some players, they have too much of a sample size to know they they are not a true shooter, like Schroder Theis etc..

Tatum has 1500 attempts and the accompanying makes to prove that he is an elite, all-time volume 3p shooter. Nesmith thus far has not shown anything to suggest he is even a league average low-volume shooter.


yes, I get that. But my point is that even a extremely experienced player with a proven track record can be way off. a young shooter who is "off" doesn't make him a bad shooter like some suggest.
2 things need to go.. my lack of spell check and Joe.. :nod:

Smart don't need help on Defense.

Nothing wrong with having a different opinion - as long as it's done respectfully. It'd be lame if we all agreed on everything :)

No, he's a bad shooter because that is all he's shown so far. There would have to be some period to show Nesmith as being 'on' for us to suggest that he is now 'off'. Maybe he's just a bad shooter, as the stats have shown so far.

Good news is the Celts only have 5 turnovers with 3 minutes remaining in the 3rd.

I think it has a lot to do with Schroder running the offense instead of Smart.

Celtics play better when they don't have 3x the turnovers as the other team.
