    I mean KG has never been a good three point shooter who always shoots 3's, unlike Nowitzki and other players that Skip mentioned. It's surprising that this season his three pointers have improved, and he is capable of being the best on the team.

    Ok, I have no idea what you are trying to say anymore, KG has been a fairly good outside shooter (32% from 3 in 01-02). Why is it suprising that his 3s are improving when he says that he spent the offseason trying to improve his 3s. And when you have a two guys in Mike James and T-Hud who can shoot over 40% from 3, then you can be fairly sure that KG is not really capable of becoming the team's best 3 point shooter.

    I would've liked to see James/Foye in the backcourt with Davis coming off the bench, but James/Hassell/Davis is good too.

    Yo Skip add Bosh to that list [​IMG]

    Seriously Bosh reminded me of KG when I saw him taking those shots and knocking them down

    That is what i've been hoping for. Maybe it will happen later, but if not Foye should be great off the bench.

    In the future I'll add Bosh to the list. Bosh is a great deep 2 pt shooter, but he really doesn't take many shots from the 3 pt line. I don't think its very important for Bosh to take many 3s though.

    Bosh is more of a low post threat with a good outside 2pt jumper. The doesn't shoot 3s that much though.

    Yeah, I was expecting the rook to start, oh well, he hasn't had an amazing training camp, so he'll just have to re-prove himself.
