Yes, closing out on a guy and getting him off the 3 point line is a good thing. But it can be done without jumping 3 feet in the air and landing out of bounds.
Ross isn't the only guy to do it of course. Just seems that even when he slows his momentum and jumps relatively vertical, he's so far away from his man that I don't know whether he's affecting their shot more or less than someone whose on the ground but closer to the player.Last edited by Mess; Fri Jan 8, 2016, 01:58 PM.Two beer away from being two beers away.

Comparing poor fundamentals (Ross) to worse fundamentals (DeRozan) is a bit of head scratcher, to be honest. (Just talking about this one particular play here.)"We're playing in a building." -- Kawhi Leonard

He can shoot, pass, dribble into the defense - sometimes another perimeter defender actually has to rotate over and leave his own man open. A proper close out and you don't give the ball handler that opportunity. You're also in position for the continuing play.

Just wondering where the numbers you got were located and how the main guys (PP, CJ, TR, KL and DD) are doing now as compared to when you first posted.
Lowry is currently at 43.3% without and 41.6% with on FG and 40.2% and 39.4% from deep. Gap largely closed.
Ross is 50% to 39.9% and 47% to 30.2%. So still huge difference.
DD is 45% to 44% from FG and 38% to 23% from 3.
Will try to do a full update this week with more details. All stats are from basketball-reference.comHeir, Prince of Cambridge
