It can absolutely be done. I was a good shooter in high school and after, lead my team in 3pt% and such. Can't remember, something like low-40's, which was really good at the time. Had good range, out to NBA range. But after back and neck surgery with a partial spinal fusion it completely wrecked my form. But at 30 y.o. I got into a rec league in Reno and volunteered at a local high school as a coach part time. I worked with their shooting coach and he really helped me get my form back, really re-tooled it since my arm and back don't flex the way they used to, and I lost a lot of strength in my shooting arm. I cannot shoot like I used to, especially now at a million years old, but at the time in that league over the next 6 or 7 years I got my percentages back up to high-30's and was reliable from mid-range and 80%+ on FT. You can absolutely work your way into being a decent shooter.

Yeah... you were a talented shooter to begin with. Duh. That's kind of important.
 
Cody with another decent game in the Gleague tonight--21 pts and 5 asts, but it looks like he's hurt his thumb. It was taped up, and he asked out of the game late in the 4th qtr.
 
Cody had exactly zero rebounds for the game. The Stars had way more turnovers and didn't appear very interested in playing D when that happened. The new two way guy and Seaborne had nice games. Babacar and Abmas stunk.
 
I'm willing to believe that one of Cody's hands is injured. He was massaging it after just about every offensive possession last night, and he had to sub out late in the 4th quarter. Another thing worth mentioning is that it looks like he uses both hands on the release on his jumper. His stabilizing hand actually puts at least a couple fingers under the ball when he releases.

Sounds like its the perfect time to call him up to the big leagues ;)
 
let's not kid ourselves. he's 1-9 FGs his last two. he had a nice 3 game stretch at the end of december where made a few shots, but his rebounds, assists and stocks are still basically non-existent even in this last five game stretch (yes, last night was an exception but over that five game stretch since coming up from the g league, he's continued to do next to nothing in those areas.

Exactly.

When do we get some accountability from Ainge?

He's shown improvement which is all we can ask for. And he's 2/9, not 1/9.
 
Ainge has a plan. The Jazz probably have a much better W-L record if the likes of THT, Luka S, Bazely, Yurt7. Kris Dunn, Frank Jackson and Kenny are still around. Does that group magically grab a playin spot? Ainge is aiming much higher.
