As the analysis with this chart states, KD shoots better from the left because, like most right handed shooters, he is more confident pulling the ball up into his jumpshot starting with his left hand. THe problem is that he's like Go-Go Gadget out there and if you let him go right all the time because he shoots better from the left side of the court, you're really opening up more opportunities for him to take it to the rim, as he's much better doing that from the right side. Jackson was doing a good job bodying him up last night. I was a little confused why they didn't end up trying to go back door on this. Lebron tried this same tactic in a game and KD ended up burning him going backdoor due to Lebron bodying up and overplaying.
