Probably trying to get Zion to sign with Nike/Jordan so they can release the Nike Air Cholesterol 1s Out before the season starts.
He's been doing it in practice for awhile. Doesn't mean shit until he's confident enough to take it in a game when no one is within 15 feet of him.
I am too old for Instagram and Twitter.
People my age still write letters and use USB drives.
Drummond shot 50% from three as a rookie. Simmons is a career 0% three point shooter.
I would say this would be like me posting videos of me drafting competent emails at work.
Btw, follow me on Twitter @ExcelGod84

While I understand the "lol workout videos" mentality, Ben should be practicing jumpers. He should be doing it now, and next year and the year after that. Even if he doesn't have the confidence to shoot them until 5 years from now, he needs to keep practicing with a shooting coach and doing it in pickup games. I don't expect him to be able to shoot 3s at a nice clip this year. But maybe a few years down the line.
he absolutely needs to shoot jumpers in games starting game 1 of next season and no matter where his jumper is at. it's actually taking in-game jumpers that not only gives you irreplaceable game reps but creates the urgency and accountability to get good at it. also if he shoots them with the right hand that might help.
Lebron was afraid to shoot jumpers for the first few years of his career. Not to the extent of Simmons but he still did ok.
Simmons just has to be better. Not everyone has to be a spot up 3 point shooter without the ball but he has to find ways to contribute in the playoffs.

No one cares because the Hornets will still suck. I trust MJs player evaluations as much as Magic Johnsons
I'm not debating that. I'm just saying people getting hyped over workout videos in empty gyms need to temper their expectations.
Ben needs to shoot at least two threes a game next year, just to practice them during live game situations.
Ben McLemore to the Rockets reminds me of when we added Michael Carter Williams last off season. Same shit
You have the worst sources.
I do like buying shit on clearance from Eastbay though...
I get them occasionally.
Usually after I buy something.
But nothing on the regular.
Are those the Kobe 3s?
Big step up from their predecessor:
LeBron has shot 700+ shots outside of 10 feet every season he's been in the league; 40-45% of his shots his first two seasons were from outside 16 feet. Simmons has taken 3.9% and 2.6% (!) of his shots from outside 16 feet in that time span. His career avg shot distance is currently 5 feet compared to LeBron at 11-12 feet his first two seasons.
and like I agree that LeBron was kinda hesitant to shoot jumpers -- so that puts in perspective just how outlier terrified Simmons is.
One of the things that made LeBron so good right out of the gate was that his outside shot was already there.
Now obviously he had some.issues with his shot over the course of his career I think mostly due to weight changes...but with all of his physical and mental tools and you add a good jump shot to that it literally is the perfect player.
Which is what Simmons could be so he needs to get his shit together.

Are we still talking about verticals or are we on dick sizes?
I adored these shoes back in the dayAre those the Kobe 3s?
Big step up from their predecessor:
Same I still remember the reveal website on my fuckin dial-up internet connection
Was hype as it gets
I'm pretty sure it was because of the Kobe 2s
He paid them to get out of his contract almost immediately thereafter
The sneaker game used to be great
Maybe it still is, I dunno, I'm out of it - footwear is different these days, can't just cop your favorite players basketball shoes anymore
But some of Kobe's earlier Nike sneaks literally brought lowtop basketball shoes back to popularity
If everyone is wearing lowtops, all the achilles tears gonna come wearing lowtops. It's science.
Weren't nba and amateur players wearing chucks back in the day. Players these days are SOFT.
wilt scored 100 in chucks
russell won 11 rings in those fucking things
i'd roll my ankle doing jumping jacks in those sneakers god damn
Players are bitches nowadays...Look at Wilts minutes...more than 48 minutes a game for a season 0_0 and those averages LMAO
