Not sure how he went about to adjust/tweak it but it looks like he is barely missing out there. Especially when open.

It took a while for AB to get from a competent mid range jump shot shooter to now dangerous 3 pt shooter. Feels like only yesterday he was opting to exclusivelg take those long 2s

In addition I wonder if he is the one who has assisted/helped crowder, sully and KO now with their shooting mechanics

Depends.

I think keeping Ron Adams should've been the best option or choice. I like the fact AB no longer takes the tough or long twos that he used to, resulting in a lot of missed shots. At least, he's taking smarter shots, and trying to get him open more.

Sully has always had a nice shooting mechanic/form though. Crowder who knows?

Is the glass half-full or half-empty?
It's based on your perspective, quite simply

What's interesting is Mickey seems to have a nice stroke from three too.....like Cousins .

Since he was benched his hot shooting started
Now he barely miss open shots, compare to past time it's a tremendous improvement

Threw this into the other AB active thread, but belongs here too,

AB is 6th in 3P FG% among the top 100 players in terms of 3 point attempts this season. High volume and high efficiency.

Bradley squares up before he shoots.
Something the rest of the team could learn.

"I want to be one of the better shooters in the NBA, not just on our team. I'm just going to continue to work on my 3-point shooting game, and all-around game, but that's my focus this year: I want to shoot like 40 percent from three, nothing less. I just have to continue to put that work in."

This was a quote from Avery in a Masslive.com article posted on 10/26. The article also insisted that Avery had been making 300 3 points shots a day.

He worked really hard at improvement and it's paying off. No surprise to me that it's finally coming to fruition. Nice job AB!
