(Not sure if this is the right place for this, but can't really find anywhere else to put it.)
Still looking through the league and learning the players, but I stumbled across something very interesting.
Bradley Beal is averaging 5.5 3-pointers on 13.4 3pt shots per game (40.6%). LOL! He takes 16.2 FGA so 83% of his shots are 3-pointers. LMAO.
Looking at his preferences it's about 80~90% for 3s. Crazy!
Dude has already made over 180 three-pointers this season. On pace to TROUNCE Steph Curry's real-life record of 402. (Steph also holds #2 and #3 at 324 and 286)
Amazing the pref work that must've gone into this by whoever owned him before.

He means you're probably talking up a player, raising his value for a trade.
Marcos is a good salesman. Great at talking GM's into a trade.
But you did almost talk me into trading Rozier for your Hornets first today. So I sort of agree lol

Haha you offered it to me in the first place tho!
And Beal’s not going for cheap. I have no intention of trading him unless it’s for a really nice prospect. Too valuable as a super volume 3pt shooter

That's true and before I knew it, I was sending Rozier and a first for your first. I was like "wait.. what just happened".
Good negotiator

Beal can definitely hit the three ball, but that contract definitely makes it a little tougher to move. I believe the craziest 3pt shooter is still Klay Thompaon though, as he hit 400+ last year?

Klay’s better for sure %-wise, but he’s still more balanced. I don’t think anyone comes close to Beal’s 82% of FGA being 3pters.
Just insane!
And I dunno, he’s paid quite a bit but he’s 27 and will be good for the remainder of his contract. Hard to find a 20PPG guy that’s that efficient and shoots a lot of 3s IMO.
Will likely end up keeping him as he’s not too old.
