I made a thread for the man Im not arguing what he's doing this year, Im arguing the fact you say Goran through the years finish better than Westbrook.

Last year Westbrook attempted 478 layups making 58% of them
Dragic attempted 269 attempted layups making 66% of them

You not getting that one bruh thats over 200 more layups Russ attempted to Dragics.
It doesnt matter because its still a huge amount, not 10 or 100 like you tried to compare it to, and hes on pace to attempt over 500 this year and make an even greater percentage of them.

Comparing each year to year, their best years or over the course of their careers its the same trend and that is, for all of Russ' extra athleticism, Dragic makes significantly more of his attempts around the rim and creates more of those attempts himself. Highlight dunks on Sportscenter are literally the only thing that could lead you to believe otherwise and having the facts/numbers should easily tell you otherwise.

Thats not alot last year Dragic is only attempting 3 layups per game to Russ's 6 and only finishing a smidget better than him.

Using the same analogy Isaiah Thomas from the Kings is just as good a finisher as Tony Parker.

But if those the numbers and data you wanna use then thats up to you, the system is flawed no telling how many fastbreaks one may have, if he's fouled and there's a no call,etc, Ima stick with the eye test.

Overall career wise:
Russ>>>>Dragic

8% isnt a smidgen, especially when you consider how many attempts Westbrook does take. Like I said, more attempts is only a positive if you're elite in that area and Russ never has been. Thats a lot of potential points left at the rim. And you cant say oh its because of how many he takes and anyone's % would go down with more attempts, because thats what Dragic is doing this year and his % has actually gone UP.

Anyway we've about exhausted this conversation. You can stick with your eyetest and I'll stick with mine. But the numbers back up mine.

So by you dumb fukks analogy Anthony Morrow the best 3pt shooter in the league then right?

You dudes is dumb

You have the audacity to call other people dumb? fukk outta here with your retarded arguments, you have nothing to back up your claims other than emotions, not one single statistic going back years even backs up your viewpoint. So now that you've been proven to be a clown, you resort to calling us dumb cause nobody agrees with you :stopitslime:

Dont nobody have to agree Dragics sample isnt big enough for you to say he a better finisher than Westbrook for there career, Russ shot 200+ more layups than him last year and probably every year before that but keep thinking what you want.

Dummy:umad:

So taking more and making them at a lower percentage makes someone better in your idiotic world?


And this year Dragic has taken more, and made more at a much higher rate. nikka needs a time machine to try and prove his point, "bu bu but but last year" ass nikka.

Dragic is emerging as a top 10 PG, but if he keeps going off like this he could crack top 5. He has the skill set to do it.
