He’s been fuckin deadly this season, not guarding him closely is a mistake

[–] Radiatjuts@alien.top 1 points 10 months ago

Steph always ruins these graphs.

[–] WeGetSickBsTickets@alien.top 1 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Bill Simmons knew. He has actually hit quite a lot of his preseason takes so far (Harden, T-Wolves and Ant, Celtics being insanely good, Milwaukee bad defense with Dame).

How many 3s would a lineup of Curry/THJ/Joe/Luka/Lauri & B.Hield as a 6th man make in a game?

[–] CanaryContent9900@alien.top 1 points 10 months ago

THJ contract season in full effect

"let me stretch this graph for no reason so I can choke on Curry's dick."

Yeah, he's the best 3pt shooter, but he's not "on another planet" dawg.

[–] JoJonesy@alien.top 1 points 10 months ago (3 children)

Steph is so fucking insane, man. Still an outlier on every shooting chart

[–] iliveonramen@alien.top 1 points 10 months ago (1 children)

I completely missed Steph Island on the top right

In a lot of graphs, up and to the right is best. However based on this data, Isaiah Joe is performing more “better” than Steph.

Lillard seems surprisingly low, no?

[–] llimllib@alien.top 1 points 10 months ago (2 children)

This graph shows 3 point makes per 36 minutes and attempts per 36 minutes for players who are in the top 15% of 3 point field goal attempts per 36 and the top 25% of 3 point field goal makes overall.

Some notes:

  • Steph Curry is still on another planet from everybody else
  • Isaiah Joe and Sam Hauser are the best 3 point specialists in the league so far
  • Luka and Laurie are shooting a lot, and well
  • Tim Hardaway Jr, Buddy Hield and Bogdan Bogdanovic have shot a lot of volume without a lot of success so far this season
  • the Nets should probably find a way to get Lonnie Walker more shots if he's going to be this efficient
  • Last season Dame was about where Luka is on this graph, wonder if he'll pick up the 3 point volume or stay at a lower clip this year

Graph from here and data from stats.nba.com

Give timmy his respect 🗣️

[–] Blaz3dnconfuz3d@alien.top 1 points 10 months ago

Finally found his shot 😢

[–] Jicama-Smart@alien.top 1 points 10 months ago

and Curry's +/- is zero. Not sure how that is possible other than Wiggins.

[–] OilOfOlaz@alien.top 1 points 10 months ago

My fking brain just reads Iso Joe every time, them it corrects itself because of the length.

[–] Funnhgkdtd@alien.top 1 points 10 months ago

Yeah, Lillard can't possible continue to be this bad, hence the Bucks will bounce back and be a serious threat for the chip.

[–] S420J@alien.top 1 points 10 months ago

I love the man as well. It just pains me the sixers never gave him a real shot. He flashed plenty in preseason and blowouts for us, but we still just let him go.

Surprise Luka is not up there with Curry.

[–] n0th1ng10@alien.top 1 points 10 months ago

Luka isn’t close to curry or any of the great shooters. Career 34 percent from 3.

[–] SportsLaughs@alien.top 1 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Steph always ruins these graphs.

[–] hoodfavhoops@alien.top 1 points 10 months ago

top right messi type of stuff

[–] FactCheckingThings@alien.top 1 points 10 months ago (1 children)

The "Per 36" is kinda distorting the value of this for me. Itll make role players look better and stars look a bit worse.

[–] DependentLow6749@alien.top 1 points 10 months ago

Well you want to make an apples to apples comparison across players. You can filter out the roles guys with <15 mins per game. The bigger issue for me is that it isn’t pace adjusted. Per minute stats are heavily overused

[–] Ok-Comfortable1111@alien.top 1 points 10 months ago

Hawkins is killing it, insane when he started the season really cold

[–] HOU52k@alien.top 1 points 10 months ago

Didn’t even see Steph for the first 5 seconds. Sheesh.

[–] HEEMZAGIN@alien.top 1 points 10 months ago

This graph should have % in brackets so people don't get confused like OP and think 40% on 12 attempts is not good

[–] Honest_Packer12@alien.top 1 points 10 months ago

My king is the one bright spot this season lol

Kings shooters all started the year cold, but are starting to look like their old selves. Excited to keep tracking this graph as the season continues!

[–] D_Simmons@alien.top 1 points 10 months ago

ONE OF THESE THINGS IS NOT LIKE THE OTHER!

ONE OF THESE THINGS IS NOT LIKE HIS BROTHER!

[–] ThaNorth@alien.top 1 points 10 months ago

A decade later and it's still Steph

[–] Spaghettibeach@alien.top 1 points 10 months ago

I like seeing Lonnie on here, get it boy

[–] captmorgan50@alien.top 1 points 10 months ago

If finance, we would say Joe is in the efficient frontier.

[–] jtmackay@alien.top 1 points 10 months ago

Per 36 can be very mis-leading.. Lauri is averaging 9.2a on 42% Hardaway is averaging 9.3a on 40% It makes role players look so much better than they are.

[–] michaelshun@alien.top 1 points 10 months ago

hello, klay thompson

[–] fatkamp@alien.top 1 points 10 months ago (1 children)

People would really argue that someone will pass Steph on the all time 3pt list. No one historically even close in terms of volume and efficiency. Steph is 34

Man Keegan Murray really hurting my fantasy team this year. He was shooting 3s at a pretty good clip last year, I wonder what happened

[–] eramthgin007@alien.top 1 points 10 months ago

Is Steph Curry good at basketball or something?

[–] itstheweeknd@alien.top 1 points 10 months ago

I was like “where’s Steph?”, only to realize the dude is far out in the corner beyond everyone else.

[–] Baileyandco@alien.top 1 points 10 months ago

[–] thedonjefron69@alien.top 1 points 10 months ago

sees graph of leading 3pt volume shooters

Yep there won’t be any lakers on that graph

[–] Altruistic-Drawing25@alien.top 1 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Thunder fans what would be the drawbacks of giving Joe more minutes other than taking them from someone else?

[–] problem973@alien.top 1 points 10 months ago

I spent 30 seconds looking for Steph thinking, why Steph not on here? Then I notice the anomaly out the corner of my eye. Lol crazy

[–] low_man_help@alien.top 1 points 10 months ago

Curry is in a league of his own -- basketball's Dottie Hinson!!

[–] genericusernamepls@alien.top 1 points 10 months ago

Hell yeah Lauri is the tallest dude on the list 😎😎😎

[–] captaincumsock69@alien.top 1 points 10 months ago

I hope we get joe, hauser etc in the 3 point contest
