Tony Allen's Jump Shot
- 2009/10 -- 33% of his shot attempts where jumpers and he made only 21% of them
- 2008/09 -- 39% of his shot attempts where jumpers and he made only 28% of them
- 2007/08 -- 50% of his shot attempts where jumpers and he made only 41% of them
- 2006/07 -- 34% of his shot attempts where jumpers and he made only 36% of them
- 2005/06 -- 42% of his shot attempts where jumpers and he made only 33% of them
- 2004/05 -- 40% of his shot attempts where jumpers and he made only 36% of them
In the last six years, he has had only one season where he had a serviceable jump shot + somewhere between a third and half of his shot attempts where jump shots.
Tony Allen does not have a jump shot.
I agree, but so what. Ray Allen has a jump shot, how did he do last night? No comparison between the two,obviously, but TA can be a valuable player.
And that is the point, Kenmaine.
Good on the research and all, but man did TA look like he drilled every J in that LA game. Hit a few J's in the Magic game on Christmas day, too. And since then, as well.
During those games over the years when his J was bad, I wonder if he was playing injured?
I certainly respect those who may say what TA has and doesn't, but now that he is healthy and playing well we are seeing how valuable he really is.
I now propose a Formal Burial Ceremony:
I propose burying "Bad or Good Tony", and replacing it with "Healthy or Unhealthy Tony"
