HOLY KRISTAPS: All Things Porzingis | TRADED to WAS

[SleepingHero]

My observation is NOT wrong. He is struggling shooting to start. 

All he's saying is that it's too early to make any observation on his shooting, just by the nature of how counting statistics work. We can't confidently say that KP will have a bad shooting game tomorrow based on his previous 2 with any sort of accuracy. Further, KP was 6/13 (4/8 from 3) before a 3 minute 4th quarter where he missed 2 mid range jumpers and a 3 against CHA. I didn't think he shot bad at all against Charlotte. I did think he had a bad shooting night last night. 

Would we be saying KP is shooting rough if he had made 1 more 3 and didn't miss his FT and his stat line would be 37/46/100? 

It's the same thought process why most of us weren't really that worried when Luka started the season off 2/21 from 3 in the first 4 games. Rough start for sure but he isn't a 9.5% 3pt shooter. It's also the same reason that Dan touts patience for Powell. 

BUT there has been evidence from last year that it takes KP a while (give or take a month) to get back into form coming off a knee injury, which means I'm not surprised he isn't a bastion of efficiency, and he'll probably have more 6/19 games from here on out.
