I missed the part where a 20pt game in college was a prerequisite to be a good player. Noted.
When people are saying he can be the scorer the Jazz need, then yes it is a prerequisite.

Aaron Gordon had three games where he scored 20+.
em·brace
emˈbrās/: accept or support willingly and enthusiastically.
You support, enthusiastically, Gordon's poor shooting? That's odd.
I, personally, hope he gets much better at it if we select him, but to each there own, eh?
Well color me impressed! 3 X's the player by my back of the napkin math. Nice research.

in the context of his age, height, weight, hand-size and college position you'd have to conceed that vonleh's shooting is pretty good, based on 3pt and FT%'s, no?
how would you characterize his shooting? average? overrated? does he not get great rotation or arc on his shot?
it was not in IU's offense to put him in a position to shoot 3's constantly, him starting out the Wisconsin upset with 2 3's in the opening minutes was not something you saw earlier in the season.
you can take whatever stretch of games you want and point out the good and bad, its all relevant i guess.
in conference and out of conference play is always something that at least deserves a look, kids playing in big conferences see a major step up in competition, in 16 B10 games Vonleh shot 15-25.. i dont see how pointing out that he wasnt shooting 3's in certan stretches of the season can disprove that proficiency in the B10
Kelly Olynyk never took more than .9 3's per game in 3 years of college. i dont remember too many posters last season questioning the quality of his shooting.
Andrew Wiggins had more 40+ point games than Vonleh had 20+ point games.
Just a fun fact..![]()
