Is Vasiljevic the worst "3 Pt Specialist" in history?

Jack is by far most favorite player ever at UM. Such a shame he played for Haith. If we had Coach L, we would of been a sweet 16 team each of his last two years.

S/O to Jack Mcclinton. My favorite BBall Cane...


Why didn’t he make it in the NBA?

Good shooter but wasn't a good enough ball handler. Played mainly the 2 here but had no future in the NBA as a 2 at 6'0 and didn't have nearly enough pg skills to play pg in the NBA.

Hindsight is 20/20. The kid couldnt hit anything when this thread was made.

It was always a poor hot take as I argued when he was in the middle of his major slump to start ACC play. I don't always love his defense, but he was doing other useful things even when he wasn't shooting well. Shooters, especially college shooters, go through stretches where they aren't making baskets.

Ya I remember a lot of people where saying that. We all knew he could hit shots when he was hot, but people where ****ed that he was on a 15 game slump.

Which I absolutely get. We do things in the Heat of the Moment we regret. OP made a stupid-*** thread, for example.

If he had admitted that, all would be good, but instead he doubled down on his stupid-*** thread, and now people like to remind him what a stupid *** he is.

He was 35% last year with a **** of a lot more shot attempts than 37. Get real dude. I'm not basing everything off of 37 shots lol. Some guys on this board are absolutely ridiculous. You and consigliere... Doesn't seem as if he's all there. Not understanding my previous post? I'm not sure how much easier I can make it so he understands!

ACC 3 point % - 39.5%
Entire Season 3 point % - 39.7%

He owned you guys, but even if he shot 10% that wouldn't make you less of dumbasses for unequivocally deciding he was a 35% shooter at best through the first 6 games. Players can improve over time.

There's a reason why we use AVERAGES in regards to grading shooters, compared to just saying "He made x amount of shots". DJ has grown throughout this season, guy is giving L **** good minutes.

I'm only back because I will not let some of you be prisoners of the moment.

Kid was crucial in getting the W today. But when he starts to feel himself and jacks it from Curry range I laugh out loud. He is a mediocre athlete with a nice stroke but is an overall average shooter and a below average rotation player for the ACC. If he is better than your 7th man you have a problem. I have no vendetta against the kid, just saying what my eyes see. I hope the good times keep rolling, was impressed with his offensive board and put back. Moments like that are few and far between. He shoots us in and our of a lot of games.
 
That said, totals do give an indication of success over time, and right now he's on pace to finish in the top 4 three point shooters in the history of University of Miami basketball.

Then your eyes need work.

That or you genuinely have no idea what an average shooter looks like. A 40% 3 point shooter is not average.
