[Masson26]

his career FG % in the playoff according to www.basketballreference.com is .412 and had 20.3 PPG 8.7 RPG

hey, I watched the Celtics play the last 2 seasons in the playoffs.

and yea, Antoine choked.

remember, when you shoot up a bunch of 3's, you can still shoot a low % and score 20 points.

For instance, if you shoot 100 times from 3-point line, and make 30% of your shots, that's 30 baskets x 3 points = 90 points overall

If you shoot 100 times inside the 3-point line, in order to get 90 points, you'd have to make 45 backets, or shoot 45%

In other words....with Antoine jacking up 3's left and right, like he did in last year's playoffs, he's bound to hit a few 3's.

I am not saying Antoine is a bad player....just that his penchant for shooting 3's hurts his team, esp. when he was clanking enough bricks to build his mansion in last year's playoffs

He shot less total shots and less 3 pointers than pierce and shot better than him in both category's, and his 3-point percentage in the playoffs is higher than the regular season, if antoine choked, than pierce was horible.

I have premium cable - all playoff games are on NBATV, TNT, ESPN

some are featured nationally on ABC

that's how I saw the Celtics play from CA

Dallas won't have a problem making the playoffs, so Antoine will have plenty of opportunities this coming year

If you want to argue with saying Antoine Waler isn't good based on fg% check this out. Iverson in the games he's played in this year has a fg% of 39.7%. On the other hand Antoine Walker is shooting 43.9%. For their careers Ivy is only a .6% better shooter during the regular season. Come the post season Walker shoots a career 41.2%, or .1% less than his regular season average, meanwhile Ivy shoots a HORRIBLE 39.6%. Tell me if Walker chokes in the playoffs then what does Iverson do even if he does get about 10 more ppg on about 6 to 8 more shots?
