He averaged 29.3 points in the 05-06 season. Be real.

Yeah, the year Kobe got 35 ppg, he had no chance that season, Kobe was on fire.

Just like LeBron is supposed to be doing with his jump shot.

But his jump shot is actually WORSE than last year.

The only reason people hate is because he is overated.

I mean for the love of god, DIGID was trying to say he shoots over 40% from the field minus the paint before I showed him his shot chart. That's easily overated.

Oh, and Jordan was always a decent shooter, he just didn't extend to the three point line until late in his career.

What? How is he not a good ball handler?

However, in game 3, he was 60% from outside the arc, which isn't bad, though his inside was awful because of double teams, of which he passed out of most of the time to his hot role players.

West is 10x better than Gibson. He can actually create off the dribble, and Szczerbiak is also 10x better than Gibson, he's an awesome 3 point shooter.

Daniel Gibson is definitely the best Cleveland Cavalier shooter.

Devin Brown and Delonte West can create. Wally Szczerbiak and Gibson are both great shooters, with Gibson being better but less dynamic.

Who's the better passer out of West and Gibson?

Gilbert Arenas would handle the ball all the time whatever position he's supposed to play. He's sloppy and not very good at making plays.

He should play shooting guard and let Antonio Daniels run the point. DeShawn Stevenson should be benched.

That was the year Kobe Bryant should have been MVP.

LeBron James' jump shot has improved. If he's shooting worse, it's because of defense. He makes more open shots than before.

I never said he shot that high of a percentage outside of the paint. To be the best dominant scorer and a premiere passer, rebounder, and defender, yet to be undervalued makes James underrated.

Arenas definitely isn't a good ball handler, since when handling the ball he turns it over ridiculously often.

His mistake? He was right.

LeBron is overated.

It's not his fault the Refs are on Lebron's jock.

You said he makes around 41% of his shots outside of the paint, which was WAY off. You also tried to say he has as good of a shot as kobe, which is laughable.

The fact you think he's underated is laughable.

In fact, people like you saying he's underated is part of what makes him overated.

*fixed*

Oh, and by your logic, Steve Nash has horrible handling, since he turns the ball over so much.

Yeaahhh.. which makes him a better ball player.

And is doing a horrible job at it.

Jordan was always a great shooter.. And he could drive even when the refs weren't throwing calls at him. I can't help but hate on something that is so over-rated and such.

But Arenas makes more shots for longer periods of time.

Arenas has great handles.. and can make plays. Did you not watch the last Boston vs. Washington game after Arenas came back? He was healthy that game and made a lot of plays.

I was more or less joking around.. Lolz.

He wasn't ALWAYS a great shooter.

Mistake? Deshawn was right.

How was he right? LeBron was killing him, and if he was so overrated how can he beat the Wizards three years in a row?

Zz. I didn't say that in what you quoted for what I "supposedly" said about 5 posts back.

DIGID said that. Get your stuff right.

Delonte's shot right there was crisp.

Cleveland up 5 now after KG hit a mid jumper.

It's a close game. Let's hope Celtics don't mess up in the fourth quarter.
