He gave twice the number points that he scored. There is more to the game than the three and he has been average at that. There is a reason people call him the cone.
He made 4 of the only 7 Spurs' 3s against the Kings. He's doing what he is supposed to do. Others don't, or can't.
To win games we need 3s. Only Patty has minutes and is shooting them. When LA did it we won games, now he decided he doesn't like them anymore. Everybody else clanks them or can't shoot them even when loosely guarded, on a pathetically static offense.
We can hate Bryn all day but he is doing his job.

40%+ on 3Gs is a good offensive job, but ...
He is below 40% on 3s. I think you looked at his fg% at 40.5. his 3 is at 37.1. Murray who is not know as a 3 pt shooter is at 36.6 3pt% on the season. he does not shoot as much but he also does not play as much not have the green light forbes has.
Monty when you cherry pick games you can make him look good but overall he does not shoot well.
37% on treys.
40% overall.
Bryn Bryns efg% of 52% is not bad. When considering he does nothing else well on O and plays zero D the 52% efg is not impressive. At all.
Sigh. Hes a catch and shoot player. He has no pg. The spurs dont help on d. Your bias because of spurs losses makes you point to him, well because everyone else on spurstalk is doing it. Lma and gay are also terrible on defense, probably worse than.forbes, but since you dont recognize help defense basics, nor anyone else on this site, then you just blindly state trash with no analysis. Spurs aren't playing good enough defense overall with Bryn starting or not. Why dont you watch defensive rotation after all spurs get blown by, not just forbes.
I'm not cherry picking. And I too think he is one of the worse starters.
He just is what he is, and he does what he is supposed to do. Which is shooting when slightly open, no matter if he makes them or not (i.e. Harden makes 36%). Today's NBA works like that, you need volume shooting to engage the defense and get second chance layups poiints. Nobody else is able/wants to do it. I blame DDR, LA more than Bryn. Even Gay should launch it every time he sees the rim.
Murray shoots 3s totally open, mostly from the corner, because the defense chooses so. That's a completely different thing.
BTW with more volume 3s, Murray would get so many offensive rebounds...
People also get mad at Forbes but Keldon can't shoot, Lonnie can't shoot. And is not like players today don't know what they have to do. That's why mr Instagram coughs up videos of him shooting in an empty gym. Those videos got him an extension
Thank god sometimes somebody mentions defensive rotations, help. But he's really too small for today's NBA. Really. Even on a perfect rotation he is eventually getting exposed. He's too small, sadly. In a sense he's like Beli, who in his mind never misses a rotation but has no legs to get there so offense just eats him alive.
It's not that Murray can't shoot... It's that he doesn't shoot... Ben Simmons can't shoot... Before this year, Fultz couldn't shoot... Murray hits jumpers every game and shoots a good percentage from 3... It's just that Pop Hass pussified him so much he only takes like 7 shots per game when he needs to be at about 15... Almost everytime he is aggressive offensively, we win
Bull .
Pts/100 possessions against : 117.4 on court 109.8 off court. The worst defense in the league currently is Washington at 117.1. 117.4 would be the worst defense in the league. 109.8 would be the 14th in the league...
As long as he's starting or playing 3rd most minutes on the team in not watching this team anymore, it's a ing disgrace.
DJ has a total of 66 posts on IG. How is he Mr. IG with less than a 100 posts?
it's a joke on the forums, nothing to take seriously. but he did trick more than few people into predicting himself as the savior of the team this year, which he isn't now unless you believe in the pop slave master meme in which pop is depressing the stats of good players in favor of pets. I don't think murray is better than the scheme allows. I don't think he would be a volume shooter unitl he gains trust in his legs. This is different than bertans who is obliviously a volume shooter but never meshed with Pops defense first mentality.
I think pop is a traditionalist who favors defense at 3,4,5 but allows garbage at 2 and 1. This makes sense if you can only add so much talent. He took a no defense fathead and turned him into a defense first no offense PF/SF.
Finally who wants to predict that keldon makes murray tradeable next year? overlapping skill sets goes in favor of the cheaper contract.
As I was saying . . .
Over/under Bryn Forbes starting 81 games next year?
Over under 150 games until Flopovich realizes he shouldn’t start Forbes at SG?
This place will blow on the first pre season game when Forbes starts. Just like how Lyle's and gay started last pre season.
Lets be honest, we kinda love him too(deep down, very deep), he has a loveable face the lil and a very punchable at the same time
