I don't think he literally meant today, March 2, 2015.

I think he just meant at his age.

It's not like he's forgotten how to shoot.


He shot under 20% for 3s as a rookie. I seriously doubt he's a better shooter now than he is then.

He never was a 3-point shooter.

I wouldn't put somebody's rookie season as a baseline for 3 point shooting, especially considering he didn't gave one prior to the NBA. That being said, his 3 pt shooting, and shooting in general declined considerably during his stint in Washington. It's likely it would decrease from there considering the physical, cognitive, and sensory declines that come with age.

By no stretch of the imagination can it be interpreted as after a period of training. Today means as is.

I took it as could he suit up as old as he is today and get 20.

I didn't take it as he meant literally take off his suit and put on some shorts and go out and play an NBA game.

If the OP says that's what he meant then I'm wrong.

In this hypothetical scenario, injuries on the Hornets force him to suit up tonight, health and body as is.


I would be shocked if he even got the ball. 20 points? Lolno
