Who is the best 3 pt shooter in the mountains?

Justice is the PG for the best team in the region. With that said he doesnt have to take many shots...OK, take what you said about what you think Justice does from behind the 3pt. arc...2/8 is 25%, 3/8 is 37%, 2/6 is 33%, 3/6 is 50%...Now what i get from that, is that the 37% is not bad and the 50% is great(which goes back to Justice's shot selection which is good)...But take those 4 possible outcomes as 4 games...For example, he would be 10/28 for 36%...IMO that doesnt make Mr. Justice look all to well and Hall, Akers or Crum can do better than that...I agree that he has better shot selection, but those %'s dont look that good for a player with a good shot selection(or atleast how you made him look)...Wink
Akers is shooting about 40% or better for the year and i feel that it would be a safe bet that Hall(maybe shooting a little bit lower of a %) and Crum is as well

The thread didn't say anything about being the best shooter with someone to get the ball too him, like you said about Crum. Neither did it say anything about the rest of the team of the best shooter, like you mentioned with Justice. I respectfully disagree that Akers has to create his own shots. He is a good spot up shooter "Period", & IMO he should not be trying to create a shot. He would be better suited to wait for the shot to come to him. IMO he has great difficulty in creating his own shot because he is so small (like 5'3 I think) and he doesn't handle the ball that well. I don't think Akers is a good shooter at all when he tries to create. He forces too much. I also disagree that any other player in his situation would do the same. I've seen alot better players on teams just as bad and they didn't do it. Just my opinion!

You cant just make up hypothetical stats for Justice & then say they don't make him look all that well :booo: That's no kind of an argument --- it's silly! I think you are playing the "What If" game again Smile & seems like we've been down that road before in an earlier thread. It's not about "what if" its about "what is".
