Way to keep it fresh
Lol, those primary school kids are better than him.
Way to keep it fresh
He's missing threes because Dwights not making his free throws!
He has elbow tendinitis. It's not a coincidence that this cold stretch started at the same time as the diagnosis.
More like the diagnosis started the at the same time of the cold stretch.
he has elbow tendinitis since last season
I had to look this up to verify it. 1 of 34. How is that even possible? You could put my sorry old ass in a Lakers uniform and make me shoot with my off hand and I'd make more than 1 of 34.
He should stop shooting threes altogether, but to the point of elbow tendinitis, if it's true. Kobe was averaging 6 three point attempts per game until 15 games ago when this cold stretch started. Since then, he's averaged 2.5 three point attempts per game, with only one game where he attempted more than 4. So he has not shot nearly as many in this cold stretch. He's still shooting 52% on two pointers in those games and he's averaging almost 8 assists per game and over 6 rebounds a game in the same stretch. So while his three point shooting has suffered, he hasn't let that hurt the rest of his game.
All the same, he probably shouldn't shoot many if any anymore if he really does have elbow problems. And I do question that since in the same 15 games, he's still shooting 88% from the free throw line. I think he's just been in a slump from three point range.
No you wouldn't. You wouldn't make any.
I think it's annoying when fans make these kinds of claims. As if putting you in an NBA game against uber athletic, extremely long 6'5 to 6'8 guys wouldn't be enough to stop you from making a couple of three pointers. And with your off hand nonetheless...
So why the Rapist keeps shooting three?
Ok, not with the off hand. lol Otherwise, I absolutely would. It's really not that bold of a claim, man. 34 attempts. 1 make. You could do it too. , you could make more than 1 shot from half court with 34 attempts!
well i don't know why people are so surprised by that, he is the worst three point shooter of all time for those who made at least 1000 in their career..
no he's not
We are so surprised because 1-34 record is a lot of worse than worst.
indeed he is not, had to deeply check it, antoine walker apparently is even worse, that still works for active players though but ok you got me
that's coz now he's kobe johnson so now he only shoots threes when he's forced to.. and tbh is a more wise decision than before..
not just antoine walker. iverson, jason williams, baron davis, vernon maxwell, gary payton... he's not even bottom five. he's not a great three point shooter. never been a prolific one. but this is the type of things i've talked about from kobe haters and kobe critics. quick to discredit or bash him, whether what they say is true or not
also, not for active players either. stephen jackson has a worse career three point percentage
yeah that must be coz of this year, i know he was last year when i checked it..
He's 9th worst all-time. 2nd among active player. Stephen Jackson is the worst active player.

He isn't, his attempts have decreased.
Raven getting owned!
Someone needs to inform 2k sports that. He hits them back to back to back on me! Lmmfao
He is the worst with 1400+ made or 4500+ attempts though. At the end of the day, really isn't that big of a deal, he shoots a lot, he misses a lot, we know that already. His fearlessness is what attracted a lot of his fans in the first place.
Besides, I am sure there has been players with worst streaks than that. I remember Jacque Vaughn once started the season 1-21 on all FGA or something like that.
Fearlessness isn't what attracts fans, otherwise guys like JR Smith and Jamal Crawford would have huge fanbases because of their fearlessness to take shots.
It's silly to suggest that Kobe first attracted fans merely because he's fearless in taking three point shots.
