Adrenaline 3s apparently
LMAOOOOOOOO can't be serious. This is beginning to become borderline pathetic.
It started as a "heatck" post and tkf and dk7th turned it into a % troll talk.Tkf, wheres your buddy dk7th?? Maybe you should find another butt buddy.
this is simple.. dk doesn't believe in heat check 3's.... moreso if you are not good shooting threes for your career... so of course % has to come into play, otherwise how do you show if someone is a good shooter from three? cooch wants to win an argument because he says so..... that just won't fly, and when faced with reason, he resorts to this type of behavior that is not conducive to having a reasonable conversation....
edit: dk also mentioned that although no one should be taking heat check 3's, if you do so, it is somewhat more understandable if you are a good three point shooter for your career.. ie: Nash..
Okay, that is understandable, however, "Heat Check 3s" are apart of the game. And during this time that a player is taking these type of shots, they're experiencing an adrenaline rush which can immediately improve athletic performance.
While I agree that moreso high percentage 3 point shooters should take these shots more than a below average shooter, during this time stats are thrown out the window. This is what you call being on "fire" ... it's not just luck it's contributed to the hormones in your body as well. For example, the game Melo had in the olympics or a couple during the season, I have no problem at all with him taking those shots during that time. It doesn't change the complexion of the game if taken at the right time. So maybe that should be the argument.
Also, I want to state as well, the Cooch is right! Although not a huge significance, but according to mathematics and probability laws ... the more you do something the higher your percentage will raise. If you look at Reggie Millers best shooting percentage seasons it's when he's taking more shots. Actually the more you shoot the more comfortable you will be come, and the chance of making that shot increases. Melo best shooting percentage was recorded during his highest 3pt shooting attempts season.
