Shooting at the basket that is down relative to you is inexplicably hard.

We had some weird gym that had improvised stands right next to a court, so the distance was like a 28ish ft 3pt shot. And the height was so that you are just slightly above the rim from your shooting position

Your mindset is for the ball to go up and then down. But in this instance, yu basically need to just shoot it downwards. and it messes up your complete sense of shooting, it's like 3/4 are airballs.

These are stats from his tenure in Opava 2001-2003, Czech NBL league, where he played total of 90 games in a span of 3 years, while already being 36 years old, with 2.5/6.4 per game total, on a 40% 3pt shooting.

Guy was the youngest pro at the time (in freakin 80s) that played first pro game at age of 14, for Borac Cacak, in a Yugoslavia that at the time was 2nd to NBA in quality (time of Partizan, jugoplastika)

I will try to find FMP stats but let's just presume that those were different times, and playing in your 36y is not as it is today and you may be in a serious decline ... ?

I actually managed to find the dude, it was my mistake, it's Vukosavljevic

Dejan Vukosavljevic

It's the 97 generation (Bulatovic, Silobad, Vesa Petrovic, etc) that managed to go 2nd national

Unfortunately there are no stats for his games, but I can guarantee he was the OG "imma shoot the 3 instead of lay-up" guy

There was this dude in early 2000s in Serbian league .. Milosavljevic I believe was his surname, played for FMP team.

Dude was Steph before Steph and even better (shorter europe 3). He was overall ~60% from 3, it was automatic shit, opposing teams were already counting it's in if he somehow shoots it. Unreal 3pt shooter

He was less than 60% from free throw. People were joking that he should take his ft from 3pt line.

My theory - some people find the feeling of the certain distance. From that distance it makes sense for them, everything else breaks down in their heads/muscles.

And I actually wonder, why he doesnt always go for the mid-2, like MJ

Too lazy to check stats, but by the eye-test he always makes those, and I always wonder why doesnt he take 20+ of those shots every game

There are literal pornstars that entered the business 5 minutes after blowing the 18 candles on a cake, and people go berserk over a 17y girl having sex, this sub is wildly disconnected from reality

That's pretty specific fact to have a similarity, but there were instances

When fighting Cell, Piccolo allowed Gohan to wear his traditional Namekian battle attire, with cape and everything.

Bro, do you understand play-offs ?

more wins team plays less wins team.

If a less wins team beats the more wins team, you should be especially afraid of such a team, as they managed to pull it off in a first to win 4 series, while playing more away than home games.

And it all happens after playing 82 games, for extra 16-28 games. Played in a spawn of 6 months.
