Q rich - 3PT Attempts 184.... FT attempts 85
J Craw - 3 pt Attempts 215.... FT attempts 243

Ok we think of both these players as outside chuckers but its obvious jamal is a much much much more agressive offensive player.... 85 FT attempts is pathedic for Q rich

1 of the things Brown said he wanted to change in Craw when he first got here - the gross disproportion between the number of 3's attempted and number of free throws attempted.

Brown's methods and message are reaching some

I am going to say I credit brown with Crawford's revival.

Crawford is a much improved point guard. He'll be the starter in 2 years when we make our run to the finals.
all kool aid all the time.

you mean he'll be a valuabe yet overpaid contributor off the bench

nah, he'll be starting...marbs will be traded or be coming off the bench.

Marbs may have been one of the first in the second wave of (well, after oscar, magic, etc.) scoring PGs to come into the league, but the league is littered with them now. (wade, heck, even lebron is a guard that's being forced out of position by the old nba standards of position play)

in 2 years the stocktons of the league will all but be retired (kidd, etc.).

It'll be scoring PGs and athletic centers.

That's a huge improvement for Crawford. Last year it was 512 3pt attempts to 216 FT attempts, and the year before 521 to 240.

marbs or no Marb he won't be starting.

and it sounds like you've never seen Stockton play if you think he wasn't or couldn't score.

Stephon Marbury's are the ones who are dying out.

nextgen leader Chris Paul is a pass-first point guard. Like Nash Kidd Stockton, he knows when to assert himself as a scoring option.

Guys like Steph, Francis, and Davis never figured out that key balance.

Great stat Elite. Last year I think the Knicks had at least 3 guys with more 3's than FT's.
We could be the Dallas Mavs of the East.
