Downward trend of Kawhi's 3 point shooting

[Spurs da champs]

Leonard is 10 for 44 from 3 so far, but 78 for 134 from 2.

Those aren't even in the ballpark of Tony's numbers, but if we are saying he's not a 3pt shooter because he's 10 for 44, then you cannot turn around and say he's not a 2pt shooter by ignoring that he's 78 for 134 from 2.

You cannot have it both ways. Just because you want to think there are other factors that stats don't take into account doesn't mean you can cherry pick the stats to suit your argument.

I didn't "cherry pick" any stats for the benefit of my argument, my statement: regarding Leonard not being a 3pt shooter, had everything to do with the eye test of all of the previous season & this early part of the season. He is just not a 3pt shooter. The problem I have with your argument is your comparing a young role player's shooting percentage to either the best players or 2nd best players', that's a flawed argument; as those players must & usually take a lot of shots to give their team a chance.

Tho, I agree wholeheartedly with you that Kawhi should have more opportunities inside the arc, as the system doesn't really match his strengths.

Make leonard a post up threat!!!! Let him get his confidence built up...then other shots will follow suit!
