Rique's 15-16 FG%

[spurraider21]

I wonder how much of it is skewed by that one good month in March though? IIRC he shot in the high 50s during that month. Not sure if he has another month like that in him, especially with the way he's looking against the likes of Latvia...in which case we can expect under 40% imho.

or you could look at facts and realize it was the 24 game stretch in january/february that dropped his %

I would rather see rieque getting injured than him shooting over 50% srs.

Him shooting well = me me me, dribble dribble dribble..I am the guy at ude.

Hope he breaks his leg. Go SPAIN! do it for us

General musing.... If I were to wish kawhi, lma, or Duncan a severe career ending injury would that be indecent? I'm aware of a reason why Parker is different from them, that is:

He's close to retirement, be allegedly hurts the team, we have credible backups for him.


But if I maintained a legitimate belief that Anderson would be a credible backup, that kawhi is too dumb to ever run the offense, and is medically fragile such that wishing him an injury is pretty much like wishing for the sun to shine?










I am off course a decent person, so the issue is moot. Otoh, i wish a few posters would receive physical disabilities commensurate with their mental disabilities. That seems fair and decent.

Not going to lie I was surprised when I saw his April FG%. Still that was only 8 games, 3 of which were sub 30%, and his FGAs went down considerably. Anything from 2014 I don't even take into account because he hasn't been that same player outside of one month in 2015.

Also when someone says IIRC that usually implies that they haven't looked the info up, Philo. Obviously I wasn't able to look it up at the time of the post.

Obviously the poll is a joke, as there is no option even remotely resembling a non-laughable choice. However it's a long hot summer, people need to goof around, and tip can't come soon enough. TP's post all-stars numbers last season are about right. So right around 49-50%...

I'm sure you were ing about him in 2014 too.

And yes, instead of relying on (wildly biased) memory, I would suggest looking stats up before making dumb claims like you did.

Never been a fan but I also never called him one of the worst players in the league until this past season.

I phrased it in question form and used the term IIRC. The only claim I made was that I don't think he has another month like March in him, which I stand by tbh.

I'm skeptical too, but he won't have to do as much with LMA and Kawhi. I still think it's quite a leap to predict a fg% below 45

yeah right..

I'm sure he's a willing team player

This is shooting 20% the last three games in international basketball..and still stubbornly trying to take over instead of letting other plays

[BillMc]

A poll like this that doesn't include percentages into the 40's as an option is obviously not meant as a serious question, but some sort of anti-Parker agenda.

[apalisoc_9]

either 22% or 29%

The poll is about his field goal percentage & not his free throw percentage which as you stated might hover in the 40s.

Parker was ass in the postseason & that's all that matters.

There's a chance he'll have a game in which he shoots 15 for 16, but I doubt it. What was the question??


Dumb polls are dumb.

[BD24]

So are any of you gots actually going to go on record and say you seriously think he will shoot below 40% this year? Of course you won't because you know damn well that isn't the case, but go ahead and keep puffing your chest out to look tough.

[FkLA]

^Depends on if he continues to try to play hero. If he does he'll definitely shoot below 40%. If he accepts a Prigioni role he might hit 45% tbh.

[Raven]

.38 imo.. hopefully he can get his ass to .45 but that's just wishful thinking i'm afraid.

Look at you sitting on the fence. Don't want to commit to a percent below 40 do you pussy.

[FkLA]

Anybody else getting worried after this fat ass showed an inability to shoot above 30% for most of the Eurobasket?

$15 mill gets you a PG that can't get into the lane+a broke ass jumper smh
