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.

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.


really?? he shot 35% as a rookie with sporadic playing time, which is near league average or better. But shot well over 40% for most of the second half, coincidentally when he actually played consistently. including playoffs. Killed in the simmer league again shooting near 50%, but misses in his first 2 games therefor he can't shoot?

I see we have cluelessness running rampant in here.

That's not league average. The league shot 36.7 from 3 last year. It's fine if you think he's going to be a good shooter, but so far he is not. But actually now I see he shot 37 pct from 3 as a rookie so what do I know. I just would like to see him prove he can shoot well before I say either way.

Rob Williams alters shots, just by standing there.

They think twice. Even on 3's.

And I like Sengun, would have been happy to have him onboard at #16 as a Horford understudy.

we traded 16th pick in exchange for horford. we wouldn't have been able to have both of them..

Nesmith has been unimpressive both in offense and defense so far in the regular season.

Jalen Green is 7-8, from 3.
