NBA 2012-2013

The talk about Jimmer and Kidd and FT% in the other thread got me thinking about Kidd's shooting percentages.

In his first 4 years in the league he only made 69% of his FTs. Since then he's been an 81% shooter.

In his first 9 seasons he shot 32% from 3. He's been at 37% since then.

So far this year he's at career highs of 89% at the line and 45% from 3.

Shooting from some 3pt specialists this year:

Matt Bonner - 48.8% 3pt%
Ray Allen - 46.1%
Kyle Korver - 43.8%
Steve Novak - 43.8%
LeBron James - 43.4%

Those first two passes. Damn.

They are whiter than the Cougars.

They are whiter than the Cougars.

Watched them last night and the full starting 5 is white. blew my mind. And then Rubio is the first guy off the bench.

Drummond looks like he could be the steal of the draft.

Drummond looks like he could be the steal of the draft.

That would still be Lillard, IMO. Lillard being the 6th pick and Drummond the 9th. I'd also list Nicholson of Orlando and Draymond Green of GS.

And in the not a steal category...how 'bout the article on Austin Rivers and his season looking like one of the worst in NBA history. You know things aren't good when the guy you used the 10th pick on is being mentioned with Jason Collins and Adam Morrison.

It is always nice to see a former Duke player sucking.

Yeah, he's been brutal. Not surprising, really.

Deron says Avery Johnson's system sucks, and Avery gets fired.

Deron is a powerful man. Even when his shooting sucks.

Deron's shitty shooting has probably cost them 5 games. Nets win those games, Johnson probably still has a job.

Avery's kid agrees with you.

Avery Johnson Jr. @itsaveryjohnson

I'm sorry are best players couldn't make open shots. Yeah that's my dads fault totally...

[smokymountainrain]

Avery's kid agrees with you.

That's great.

Deron can be a really good player. He also can be a huge pain in the ass.
