In 34 games, he's shot:
>40% in 14 games
30-39% in 5 games (all of them were actually 33.3%)
20-29% in 4 games (all of them were actually 25.0%)
10-19% in 1 game
0% in 9 games

In 20 of 34 games, he's legitimately shot below the league average. As much as he's helping us win games, his shooting is equally costing us some too.

Im not some Temple defender, but this is just a dumb argument. Do you seriously think guys are supposed to be around their average every night?

Luka is shooting %.326 from 3 this year.

In 21 games, he's shot:
>40% in 6 games
30-39% in 4 games (all of them were actually 33.3%)
20-29% in 7 games (all of them were actually 25.0%)
10-19% in 4 game

Luka shoots threes 8.3 times per game. Temple, 3.4. Take away the rest of the skill set, who would you rather take your threes? Which one is more consistent? Temple is doing just fine, to act like his shooting is costing us games is just ridiculous. That's not to mention 5 of the times he shot %0, he only shot it once. In fact, when he's shot it over 5 times a game, he's shooting %41. Lets not act like that is costing us games.
