    Many diseases the treatment and/or cure can be greatly enhanced by early detection.
    In the case of Kwa, his Kombelike chucking seemed to start in small doses in 2015, showed itself sometimes last season, but has been growing at an alarming rate, especially earlier this 16-17 season. While certainly not every time down the floor, still an alarming number of Kobme chucks.

    Still shooting overall at a very good percentage at 46% / 39% treys.
    However that 46% is a career low. 39%, while very good for treys is down from his fabulous 44% last season. Had not only the upstairs crowd but many thinking chit, this guy has MVP potential.

    Reasons

    Could be more then one or a combo.

    An inept coaching offensive strategy that forces Kwa to play iso ball.
    A porky out of shape point guard who sometimes ball hogs and has very limited passing skills.
    Another less pudgy, but still slightly rotund PF who does not move without the ball.
    A center who is just going thru the motions pulling some more fat paychecks to keep his lifestyle going.
    Kwa himself being a Kobmelike ballhog.

    Where does Kwas shot selection go from here?

    rush shots on poor shot selection at the 3, when it goes in ppl dont say , vice versa

    then the weak ass attempts trying to draw and1 players instead of actually attempting to shoot seriously to put the ball into hoop

    pussy ass not attacking the rim against pathetic defenders

    Stats are actually 47 FG% and 40 3p%, tbh. And he's taking 17.6 shots per game, very far from Kobe levels. Bad troll thread is bad.

    Kawhi is playing a notch better than '10-'11 Wade who was STILL at his PEAK (he was "Co-Player of the Month" w/ LeBron): http://bkref.com/tiny/B7PX7

    Wade averaged 2 more assists per 100 possession but he also average 2 more turnovers otherwise Kawhi has better or equivalent numbers (Wade shot 50% but Kawhi has a better TS% b/c he shoots TWICE as many 3s)

    Straw.
    OP was not about "shots per game". Rather trips down the floor where Kwa has a Kobme possession. All players do it. Even Timmy Dunks had badly forced shots on rare occassions. Point of OP clearly was that Kwa is increasing from almost never to an eyebrow raising number of times. Even if the majority of his offensive game is still great, too many Kobme possessions. Obvious to many.

    Incidentally Kwa is
    .468 fg
    .398 treys.
    You rounded up, i rounded down. Rather insignificant. What is significant is again, exactly as the OP said the lowest fg% of his career and treys % is down 4% from last season. Still plenty of time to raise both of them. But it's not soley about shooting percentage. It's about not having Kobme possessions where a better shot selection or a pass would be better but he Kobes ahead anyways. Need to nip that in the bud.

    Why would you not want Kwa to cut down on his # of Kobme possessions?

    Wade to me peaked in 2006. Which is not to say he was not still good in 11.
    However, Wade is another good Kobme example. Could have easily finished off Dallas in 11 with LeBron taking the lead.

    Too many trips down the floor Wade also pulls his Kobme . And it's cost. To me Wade is the single biggest reason the Heat failed to ride LeBrons coatails after taking the 2-1 lead and about to go 3-1.

    You don't get to choose whether to round up or down. There's a rule for it.

    Rounding down when the % are .468 and .398 is either re ed or malicious.

    From tonights game vs Celts
    We need to find other ways to involve Kawhi in the offense.


    It becomes very ugly when he dominates the ball, he is not good finding his teammates and not great at deciding which shots to take.


    It all seems pointless when he s hot, but when he is not you can see all 4 players freezed, no movement, and Kawhi taking an ill advised 3.

    You actually think that 46% and 39% more accurately represent the numbers above than 47% and 40%.

    Bizarre.

    If anyone can stay on subject.
    I'm not referring to Kwas overall shooting, obviously fanatastic as for a while he flirted with 90/50/40.
    I'm talking about individual trips down the floor.
    If it was a rare Kobme trip here, a rare Kobme trip there I'd say fine. Even Timmy Dunkar did it.
    But we're seeing too many. Some games Kwa is having like 5-6 Kobme trips down the floor.

    Between you and Hater, the gay ass nicknames you come up with need to be filtered internally before being used. Do yall just put letters into a tumbler and take whatever comes out? Dunkar? Really? That's as bad as Ethiopantula.
