he cant, but he is hot right now

Yes he can. He's not a great shooter obviously, but he's much improved.

wade took three steps, karate kicked garnett, and went to the free throw line

the NBA, its FAAAAAANTASTIC!!!

 

[MC KAos]

its just one game, there is a history of 80 games the rest of this year that proved he isnt a good shooter.

 

[Cowboys&LakersFan]

That should do it. Celtics are done. Probably gonna get swept by the Heat who will then be swept by the Spurs.

 

[Cowboys&LakersFan]

its just one game, there is a history of 80 games the rest of this year that proved otherwise.

Yeah and in those 80 games his jumper was much improved compared to previous seasons.

 

[Cowboys&LakersFan]

Rondo has been incredible tonight and in the playoffs in general. He has a case for best point guard in the game.

 

[MC KAos]

Yeah and in those 80 games his jumper was much improved compared to previous seasons.

really? is that why he had a lower shooting percentage this year compared to last year? and last year was lower than the previous year? and the that year was worse than the year before that? his shooting percentage has dropped 3 years in a row. he is having an INSANE shooting game, but its just 1 game

It's a lockout shortned season a lot of players have lower FG% compared to previous seasons.

let me preface this by saying that i have no idea if this is a real account, but two sports writers retweeted it like it was!

and just as many players improved their shooting percentage, it has nothing to do with it. and thats besides the fact its been going down for 3 years in a row! not just a one year trend. again, he hasnt improved his jump shot, he just had a great game.

He's a moron. KG played on crap teams his whole career until 2008. He's one of the greatest players ever. As good as any power forward that's ever played except for Duncan.

i dont think its a real account, its not confirmed by twitter and only has like 5k followers, but if it is, thats quite a low blow from an ex teammate!

How many Celtics games have you watched? I've watched a lot and his jumper has improved dramatically. The FG% drop also has to do with increased offensive responsibility. When your responsibility increases often timed your FG% decreases.

 

[NeonNinja]

Heat needed refs again...pathetic.

Can't wait for SA to smoke them.

 

[Doomsday]

That no call on Rondo was a joke and it changed the momentum of the game in overtime.

are you not tired of me continually taking you to school? his shot attempts per game have actually dropped from his FG% high 3 years ago. 2 years ago he had the most attempts and the highest FG% of his career! his minutes per game have actually dropped in that period, and he has averaged between 10 and 11 FGA per game in that same 3 year span. maybe you should look up information before you come in here trying to spout off your mouth and make proclamations that you have no idea about, like how many games i may or may not have watched. get back at me with some actual PROOF that his jumper has gotten better, ill be waiting forever because there isnt any. again, you have proven that you have selective memory, like "the regular season doesnt matter" when the regular season series winner wins the postseason series over 70% of the time.

 

[Zordon]

no-call on rondo is unacceptable in professional sports. that 4 pt swing basically determined the outcome. i wouldn't be surprised to see the celtics get some home cooking the next two games to make up for it.

i'm predicting paul pierce will shoot 30 free throws the next two games and the series will return to miami tied 2-2.

:laugh2: you saying you're taking me to school. Why because you have a different opinion than mine? As I said earlier his increase in offensive responsibility is a big reason for his FG% drop. I never said he's taken more shots learn how to read bro. I never said Rondo was a great jumpshooter because he'll never be one, but there's no denying that his jumpshot has improved. Unfornately there isn't a stat for jump shooting %, but if you actually watch Celtic games you would know his jumper has improved tremendously over his career. FG% is not a very good stat to go by. A lot of times he gets the ball at the end of the shot clock which lowers his FG%.

Parkers reaction to all the Spurs doubters.

The Spurs aren't old. Other than Duncan and Ginobli everyone else is in their primes.

Stephen Jackson is not in his prime.
