Yeah, Rondo is clearly a much much worse shooter than Rose and Stuckey, regardless of their efficiency. You put Stuckey on Boston and give him the exact same role and players play against him the exact same way his %s would be much better. I mean just look at Rondo's FT%

Again, I never claimed otherwise.

i don't tend to watch the NBA much until the playoffs (if at all) but i've been watching lately and paying more attention in passing to the NBA this season... and noticed these weird jerseys that at first i assumed were an ESPN photoshop job but realized otherwise when they were on every night for a while now. some teams (bulls and heat are the only ones i can recall other than the spurs i just saw now) have "los bulls" and "el heat" on their jerseys. what is this and why do i see these jerseys like every night?

I will lay $550 to win $500

Turns out that 2nd FTs are something like 5% better than 1st FTs, but that is true regardless of the outcome of the first FT. Iirc, players also shot slightly worse on their first FT of the game.

You meant "opposite of what happens", right?
