Stop what? He's been shooting great. Almost 60% from the three point line. He's ranked 14th in the league but a lot of the people in front of him haven't taken as many shots as he has.
 
I agree with Riz.

Ariza for 3PT shooting champ!
 
Outlaw has been hitting them consistently every game.
 
You don't know how to "checkmate."

I said very clearly that it was how well he was shooting this "season."

I made that clear.

If I hadn't, then your "checkmate" would've been hilariously perfect.

But it wasn't.

Checkmate.
 
why do you love travis so much, i know you like him which is fine. but thread like this?
 
Outlaw played great tonight. Came up huge on the boards (13) Can't ask for much more.

What's your problem? I didn't say he was THE best. I said he was one of the best. And he is. He has been shooting GREAT this season. What is your problem with that?
 
I'm glad to see he's no longer the league leader in jumpers made with one foot on the three point line.
 
To be clear, Outlaw has shot 9 of 14 from the three point line in 5 games this season. And yes, I give props to Ariza's 5 of 7. Outlaw's a little more impressive since he's taken more shots.

no he's not. thats my problem. he is not the best on the blazers, let alone one of the best in the league. nope.
 
I'm with you Kingspeed. If people are going to go overboard when he doesn't play well and we lose, we might as well celebrate to the extreme when we win and Travis plays a great game, which he did.

I thought Batum was once again good enough to play more minutes, but Travis really showed tonight why Nate still has faith in him. He had some huge rebounds, which I appreciated more than anything.

9 of 14. <--- that's what he is shooting this season

He was our 2nd best last year, behind only James Jones.

Outlaw's three point shooting is overlooked for some reason. That's why I started this thread. Last season and now this season, he is shooting the three point ball well.
 
I love what travis is bringing to the blazers. If he can display this type of all around game consistently I'd be excited to see him start. What a game.
 
too bad they're all from the corners and don't really spread the floor at all (and are easy to defend as two angles are already cut off). 3 points is three points, but sitting in that corner doesn't help his teammates whatsoever (when he's not shooting it)

Huh? It absolutely spreads the floor. Isn't that what James Jones did last season?
 
Furthermore, the Spurs have won titles because Bruce Bowen hits that shot.

By the way, Hawes is #1 at 6 of 7. Ariza is #2.

Hawes is so fucking money it's disgusting. The guy looks like one of the most pure shooters in the league... and he's a 20 year-old seven footer.

Kudos to Outlaw for his shooting so far... he's been amazing from beyond the arc!

Thank you! Exactly. Why can't everyone post like you? I say something nice about a player on our team and people get mad at me. It's so weird.
