The Curious Case Of Julius RandleLast year's Most Improved Player was one of this year's most disappointing shooters.Out of 68 players that attempted at least 500 jumpers this season, Randle ranked last in efficiency with eFG% of just 40.95 pic.twitter.com/vV9jaXbUxt— Kirk Goldsberry (@kirkgoldsberry) April 16, 2022

It’s the first time a player has fewer than 25 field goals and more than 30 turnovers in a single postseason since the three-point era (1980).(Submitted by @keerthikau)— StatMuse (@statmuse) April 27, 2022

Mikal Bridges is the 7th player in NBA history to have 30 points, 4 made threes, and 4 blocks in a playoff game.The others? LeBron James, Kevin Durant, Kawhi Leonard, Kobe Bryant, Dirk Nowitzki, and Vince Carter. pic.twitter.com/cOb4zBHNAK— ESPN Stats & Info (@ESPNStatsInfo) April 27, 2022

Why would you need Bridges when you could have 14 games over two years of Zhaire Smith?

Let’s be real, even if the Sixers had held onto him, he would’ve been shipped out in a trade for some disgruntled superstar long ago

47 minutes for bridges too lol
― jammin on the dud (Spottie), Wednesday, 27 April 2022 17:58 (one year ago) link
that trade in retrospect is clearly one of the worst moves of the entire sordid process era but at the time it felt entirely defensible, they basically traded one first round pick for two. i don’t remember ppl saying at the time that bridges was some huge theft by the suns. and zhaire had that whole thing where he almost died from an allergic reaction or whatever, so i kinda give the sixers a pass on that one
― J0rdan S., Wednesday, 27 April 2022 18:07 (one year ago) link
but now that we’re talking about it… the sixers could have jayson tatum, bridges and embiid right now. ahh
― J0rdan S., Wednesday, 27 April 2022 18:08 (one year ago) link
fixed.
watch it again. he lost his balance and stumbled backward so badly after that (nut) shot for the simple reason that he'd awkwardly thrown his foot so far forward in order to kick alvarado's nuts that it wasn't possible to recover gracefully. alvarado had embarrassed him badly in crunch time in a playoff game. cp3 will always extract payback any way he can.

Last season, the NBA saw it's smallest increase in 3PT Frequency in 10 years. It went from 39.4% to 39.9% and perhaps this means the 3pt explosion is nearing its apex— BBALLBREAKDOWN (@bballbreakdown) September 22, 2022
idk feel like theres still a some room for players to get better at shooting particularly in the front court but stylistically hoisting might be reaching equilibrium
― lag∞n, Thursday, 22 September 2022 20:11 (one year ago) link
i mean how much more hoisting can you do past 40% of shots being hoists really
