My heavens...

[Im Still Ballin]

Impressed but lets not act like he'd be putting up these numbers on other teams. The Atlanta Head coach is severely underrated.

My heavens...

Majestic, isn't it?

Easily the best non-star shooter in the NBA.

What is his deal though? I don't remember him being a Deandre Jordan-like shooter, not that I remember him being Dirk or anything, but surely he wasn't always this pitiful, at least fundamentally? Is he just taking the dumbest shots in league history or what?

[LAZERUSS]

So far...

the greatest pure shooting season in NBA history.

Interestingly, Van Gundy has convinced him to cut his three-point attempts down from 3.4 to 1.4, his lowest total in around five years. He still shoots the long ball awfully (27% or so). It seems like his spot up midrange j's are down too.

To be completely honest, easy for me to say - as I'm not in the NBA - but Smith appears awful getting off a reliable shot on his drives. The pet moves he's developed - including a weird running floater hybrid piece, usually off-balance while moving across the lane - is the type of shot I'd admonish high school players for taking, let alone 10-year NBA vets.

Many of his shots around the hoop have weird trajectories from unsavory angles that just don't have a wide window of successful completion.

If I could cut him at least a little slack, which is tough for me to do at this point, I do think some of the shooting stuff has become a mental problem, particularly at the free throw line and right near the basket - kind of like the basketball version of the yips. I think he's in his own head, which only makes the existing problem that much worse.

The good news is he leads the Pistons in field goal attempts by 59 shots...
