Here's the last five games of FG stats: I went back 6 games for Brad's (because of his suspension) and more than that for Peja because of his back injury, but they are everyone's last five game numbers. (Note: I didn't use Peja's short game against Boston on Sunday when he left with hamstring injury.)
Webber: 38-100, 38%
Bibby: 44-87, 51%
Miller: 31-61, 51%
Mobley: 33-73, 45%
Peja: 33-73, 45% (nope, no mistake...same as Mobley's).
Webber: Settling for the jumper instead of getting more of his teammates involved and/or taking it to the hole. Even when he is holding the ball, I see him thinking how to get a shot off or to the basket instead of creating a play for others but often it is too late and he's being doubled by then. While this isn't always so, I find it to be a good deal of the time. Let Bibby play the point more often, no one moves much when Web has the ball. Why is that?
Bibby: Second most shots taken, but most shots made, Nuff said. Give Bibby the ball.
Miller: Higher percentage because of the ease at which he can make shots close to the rim, additionally his FG % has declined drastically in the last 6 or 7 games, he isn't as confident lately taking those jumpers. You CAN do it Brad!!!
Mobley: Is quick on the fast break point and often just takes it in himself, without getting others involved (sometimes this works, and sometimes not). 45% is not a shameful FG%, but I notice he makes some bad shot attempts by being too anxious. But, he can be clutch beyond the arc.
Peja: WOW, I think his 3 point % was better last year, very disappointing for a shooter of his caliber. The fact that he has only had as many opportunities as Mobley, and 27% less than Web tells me he is not getting enough touches. Who's fault that is is beyond me, since I'm pretty new at this game. But I can say this, Peja needs touches to score.
Note: I'm such a novice but feel like I have to give some analysis if I'm gonna throw stats out there.
