Someone help me understand something...

Why does Immanuel Quickley avoid the paint?
This is a guy with a free throw percentage well above 80%. Typically guys who excel at free throws are good shooters. And to be fair, Quickley has done well from three so far in his career, shooting .365 over his 2 seasons.

But it seems that's ALL he ever shoots, since he's a career .393 FG shooter.
In his 2 years in the league, inside 3 feet he's .626 and from 3-10 feet he's .421. That's pretty solid.

I can't understand why this guy wouldn't attack the basket more. It figures that it would make him far, far more effective.
Now maybe NYK has no intentions to make him any sort of focal point but maybe it's just me....I see some value there.
Because he’s slight and doesn’t have an elite first step and doesn’t play above the rim.

He has a good floater but struggles to get all the way to the rim for lay ups.

Plus he loves shooting he has deep range.

Quick is a good prospect.

:mjlol:

Tim Duncan really won 4 of his 5 rings without anyone as good as Jamal Crawford :wow:


Horrible take from Gil.

1-on-1 scoring is not the main indicator of who is better in a game. I read Michael Beasley used to kill cats in practice 1-on-1, including Bron, but there are so many more dimensions to the game.

Can Crawford beat Manu and Tony in a game of 1-on-1? Sure I'd say if they played 10 games, Craw probably wins 6-7. But passing, playmaking, bball IQ, defense, rebounding, clutch factor, etc. are all Manu and TP > Jamal Crawford.
