What happened to Starling’s shot the last 4 games or so?

[Cuse_NYC]

It looks extremely flat. He was playing so well for so long. Especially from 3, it’s a rocket…

I don’t really see anything that different. His mechanics have been an absolute mess the entire time he’s been here.

Like JJ as a person a lot. He needs to move on….i think he could be the first guard off the bench for a top 5 team. Him coming back next year will take up 14 shots and he’s not going to improve on D here. We can’t take another year of our SG shooting 29% from 3. Much rather put Kiyan at the 2 and hope for the best

JJ is an inconsistent player and has been his entire career. Don't worry, we play two terrible teams next, so I expect him to have good games.

What shot? He is not a shooter. He is not a pg. He can score if he can wind the rubber band up and get by someone. Everyone watches while he and Eddy do their back-and-forth dance and any semblance of team offense just dies. And his D is nothing to write home about.

Everyone on this team is inconsistent. It's why nobody should be buried like McLeod was. He will stink next game but you can't bury him.

If JJ was our biggest problem, we'd be in the top 20. He has little help around him.

Nobody said he is the biggest problem, but he should not be the focus and be all of any offense

He is not getting set. He rushes his shot while he is going sideways or somethings forward - it is quite obvious. I think he feels the weigh of the offense on him and he rushes it - many times, because he has to due to the poor offense of the team.

Well when you're the only guy that can create your own shot your arms get tired. Lol

 

[hoopsupstate]

It’s hard to be the focus on offense and still have to handle the ball. He needs someone to deliver him the ball in good scoring spots. Everytime he put the ball on the floor a second defender was coming at him. JJ has to get better. His shooting is very inconsistent and he struggles going left. He’s an extremely poor passer and his defense needs major work. Despite this, he’s our best player. That should tell you all you need to know about this team.

Don't be short changing him now. I mean, one thing he's remained consistent at, and executed to a T again tonight around the 3 minute mark in the 2nd half, was making a layup with his right hand while driving to the hole on the left side of the hoop. Sweet!

He also has no left hand, doesnt even try (this was before he broke it btw)… JJ is a good guard but he has no help around him, making him very easy to guard considering his weaknesses
