It's only a small sample size and not against NBA talent but JLin is shooting 6-10 from the NBA 3 point line in the summer:
Portsmouth 1/2
Las Vegas Summer League 2/3
Yao Charity Event 3/5
I don't think his 3 point shooting will be too much of an issue. Of course, he still needs to work on his form and range. However, I'll go out on the limb and predict his 3 point shooting percentage will be higher than Rajon Rondo and Derrick Rose this year.
Whadya think?
Great info! I expect Lin's jump shot percentage to improve since now he will be working on his basketball skills full time, and have a dedicated shooting coach.
ReplyDeleteAlso, Lin doesn't take bad shots. So even if his shot is still developing, he'll still make at least 30% of his treys (in limited tries).
