An emotional Roy Hibbert wasn't too happy with the Los Angeles Lakers' defense after his team gave up 136 points in a 39-point preseason loss to the Golden State Warriors on Thursday night. "To me, its always about just playing hard," said Hibbert, the Lakers center. "No easy layups. I was, uhI cantJust letting those dunks in transition and half-court [happen]You have to foul somebody hard. Put them on their ass. Take a foul. It may be a technical, but you cant let somebody slice you up like that. Weve got to work on that."
Oui oui je suis allé vite, y a 2 conditions qui changent la donne :
- shot-clock era (ce qui élimine les tâcherons du premier âge qui shootait à 30%
- +20pts, ce qui élimine les tâcherons tout court
In the 41 games Bryant’s played over the last two seasons, he has averaged 21.1 points per game while shooting under 38 percent from the field. That’s the worst field goal percentage over any two-year stretch in the shot-clock era in which a player averaged at least 20 points per game.
There were 18 games last season in which Bryant took at least 20 shots. He did not make half of them in any of those 18 games.
So why has his shooting percentage dropped?
Bryant is not getting as many close looks as in the past. Last season, just 25 percent of his points came in the paint, the lowest mark of his career; entering last season 34 percent of his career points came in the paint.
He is also not getting as many open looks. Last season, Bryant took 15 shots per game in which a defender was within 4 feet -- the highest average of any player in the NBA.
All this adds up to Bryant ranking 175th in half-court points per play out of the 185 players with at least 500 plays in the half court last season.

gné ? ça ne peut certainement pas être le plus mauvais %age de l'histoire sur 41 matchs ou sur deux ans. Tu es sûr de ta traduction ?

Ca m'étonnerait qu'on ait pas une réponse de l'intéressé sur twitter, dans le genre "je vais tous vous faire mentir bande de salauds"
ça vient de Stephen A Smith, journaliste pas très crédible, d'autant que deux phrases plus loin il prédit qu'une autre possibilité est que KD, Carmelo et Kobe se rejoignent chez les Knicks. Sachant que KB a dit il y a 24h qu'il ne jouerait jamais pour un autre club que les Lakers...
