Was responding to the Malone thread and how the flawed roster is lacking or rather still lacking 3-point shooting. Ben is over 40%, Gay and DWill at 36% but Collison is down to 30%, Stauskas 24%, Ray at 28%, Casspi a dismal 14%....Ramon 29%. We are bottom 3 in the league in 3 pointers made along with Minnesota and Charlote. Memphis is next at the bottom but they shoot at a nice clip and their roster is full of defensive studs in Conley, Allen, C Lee, Gasol, etc. Most of the teams at the top are big winners because they have an abundance of shooters.
We were able to win with Cousins despite the lack of 3 point shooting and now that he is gone, that aspect is killing this team.
Who is out there that PDA might acquire? Ramon has to go and replaced with a guy who can knock them down. Stauskas to date is not ready. Those 2 areas, backup PG and SG need immediate upgrades.
Having watched Detroit last night...maybe Meeks is a guy. Singler can shoot the crap out of the ball.
Joe Johnson is at 38% but probably can't make a deal because of his contract
Gary Neal is a possibility
Indiana has Stuckey only at 34% but he's better than Ramon...and CJ Watson hits over 40% and he would fit well here
Jose Calderon and Prigioni for the Knicks are both well over 40%. I'd love Calderon off the bench and would consider taking one of their contracts they are trying to dump in a deal.
