2622724, defenses don't respect him tho.

it's not really a matter of his percentage (which has increased over the last 2 1/2 seasons). he only attempts 1 or 2 a game so the impact of his actual shooting is negligible.


what's more significant is the fact that he has no gravitational pull in terms of drawing a defender out to the line to space the floor and keep the defense honest. teams still continue to ignore him out there and pack the paint, making it harder for their inside guys.
