At the cavs game. Melo just tripped on himself and fell. Play went down the other end and he stayed down. He walked off the court and straight to the tunnel. Didn't even talk to the coaches or trainers. Dunno if it was injury or pride but he just flat out left

i watched Dickey Simpkins hit like 20 of 30 threes when i was working a PC basketball camp when i was younger.
he was a 6'11 power forward 12th man scrub on the Bulls teams back in the day. the level of skill NBA players have is outrageous.
i would guess Ray Allen could hit 85/100 threes in practice if he was in a rythm.
a little fun fact... Dave Hopla aka 'the shot doctor' (you know him if you ever went to hoops camps growing up) hit 11,093 out of 11,183 shots in the summer of 2007. many of which were 1 handed three pointers and trick shots.

My best friend managed for MSU while we were there, and said Izzo shoots free throws everyday during warm ups. Apparently him hitting 100+ in a row isn't too uncommon

this guy is such an asshole anymore:
Earlier this week, in an interview with lights and cameras and everything, Dwight Howard told CBS’ Kristine Leahy that his “team in Orlando was a team full of people that nobody wanted.” It would have been nice to get a follow-up question from Leahy about that statement, but instead she jumped right to asking if “Kobe Bryant like(s) to have fun” in the locker room.
Predictably, us in the media bleated on about the stupid, insensitive statement. More importantly, former Magic teammates Jameer Nelson and Rashard Lewis rightfully took the statement personally – as Lewis was a coveted free agent in 2007 before joining the Magic on a maximum contract, and Nelson was an NCAA star that the team traded for in the same draft that produced Howard.
On Wednesday, because Dwight Howard is so desperate in attempting to have things both ways, Howard “clarified” his statement. He also blasted the media for relaying his literal words, instead of reading his mind and anticipating his eventual backtracking. Silly us, for failing to do that work for him. From the Los Angeles Times:
Howard, however, later said Nelson and Lewis misinterpreted his comment because the media "twisted it into a negative thing" while relating his words to Orlando players.
"I never meant any disrespect to none of my former teammates," Howard said after the Lakers' 108-102 victory Wednesday over New Orleans. "My statement was just to say that our team that I played with in Orlando, we were the underdogs. Nobody really talked about our team. Everybody overlooked us for the whole time I was there in Orlando and I hated that. We all hated that.
Both Nelson and Lewis criticized Howard for talking to the media in general when, in Lewis’ words, “he should be focused on playing for the Lakers and making the playoffs.”

You can get a center to give you 80% of his production at a fraction of the cost, those guys are a dime a dozen!!!
