He’s Baaaaaaack. And from all accounts, his shooting was better. Is this the start of a hot streak?! Or just a one-game fluke? Only time will tell…

    63% was obviously a one-game fluke. evidently the ideal number of shots for larry to shoot is less than 10. once he starts shooting more than 10 shots, they usually turn into those awful 3-for-11, 4-for-15 and 7-for-22 nights that larry is so prone to. honestly, i look at his overall stats and when he shoots well, he generally also has a high assist and a high rebound total as well. in other words, when he plays an overall complete game, he generally shoots pretty good and has stats across the board, but that’s where the real problem exists. larry, being the selfish player that he is, looks for his own shot first way too much and when he does this, his other stats tend to suffer and thus, so does the team. if gilbert arenas really thinks so highly of him, then why doesn’t he put in a good word with the wizards’ front office to work out some sort of deal that would send larry to washington in exchange for antawn jamison???
