It's really quite perplexing how he can't make them. He's actually a pretty good shooter, his range just drops off a cliff at 20 feet. His career shooting numbers are: 70% at the rim, 44% from 3-10 feet, 42% from 10-16, 40% from 16-23, and 28% from 3Marty [Mori Chu] wrote:Regardless of whether he starts or comes off the bench next year, TJ Warren needs to lock himself in a gym all summer and figure out how to make some 3s. If he can add that to his game he will be a really nasty offensive weapon.
It's the legs. He's got to incorporate his legs when shooting from 3. The natural shooting motion isn't enough from that distance.Split T wrote:It's really quite perplexing how he can't make them.

This year he is 69%/41%/43%/40%/21%. He's a good enough shooter, there's no reason he shouldn't be at least competent from 3.
I think it is more to do with how infrequently he shoots with normal shooting form. Most of his shots he is contorting his body, or put backs, or tear drops. None of those are normal shooting motions for accuracy outside of 15 feet.Superbone wrote:It's the legs. He's got to incorporate his legs when shooting from 3.

I think its a bit of both. His set shot has no lift, he kinda just throws it up there, ugly really.Indy wrote:I think it is more to do with how infrequently he shoots with normal shooting form.

The League is going to call us out. The Bulls have been warned and I bet they are paying a lot of attention to what taking teams do.Split T wrote:Our remaining winnable games: @hornets (not likely if no one plays)
I didn't see the OKC game but isn't Josh injury legit and I thought TJ's was also so I don't think we guilty of just resting healthy playersRing_Wanted wrote:The League is going to call us out.

For what? Not playing injured players? There is a big difference in resting an uninjured player and not playing an injured one.Ring_Wanted wrote:The League is going to call us out.

Yeah, but with all the tanking noise I am scared the league is going to scrutinize how legitimate those injuries are. Back spasms, stiffiness, strain don't sound too convincing when it is so convinent as we play one of the few winnable games left. My concern is that if this was a regular year, so to speak, this would fly under the radar no problem, but with 8-9 teams clearly disinterested in winning, this game could be a prime candidate for the league to investigate and 'prove' that they care about the integrity of the game.Superbone wrote:For what?
