The more i think about this the more shocked i am that anyone has an issue with the number of shots. 58 from 3 is like 89% from 2. If your center is shooting 90 % from the floor he better get a touch every poseession. Either the issue is sarcasm or i am really confused on why 24 shots is a bad thing

I would think 14-24 is a very impressive percentage from 3. From a coaches perspective i would be saying why only 24 shots? Your arm get tired? That's 58% from 3. If i could hit that percentage i would shoot 50 of them a game

Amen. Do it til they stop you. The guys on the other side are professions also. IMO in pro sports their is no such thing as running up the score. Those players are paid and coaches paid to stop the other team.

That is why I brought up the defense....I was taught to take what the defense gives you. It appears to me that either the the defense was poor or Klay was on fire....either way, I am yelling SHOOT IT!

Yeah at one point in the game pretty much all the starters including Vic had taken like 8 or 9 shots, the game was even, I was about to post that Vic was flirting with a triple double -- he was -- then he just kept shooting and missing. This is another example game of relying too much on Vic or Vic trying to do too much and the game falling apart. When the P's play balanced they're a better team, they have multiple guys now who can score, they have ball movement, that should be their focus.

I didn't know the Bulls played in a church league

I shot 15 in one church league game making 11

I’m not sure Chicago isn’t a great defensive team, but they’re still NBA players out there playing live action, 14-24 is crazy. Heck, Oladipo took 24 shot overall from the field last night and made 9.

But very few guys can do it at that clip when you get the attempts up that high. I think it’s an amazing record, 14-24 is just insane shooting.

I like the newer, faster, higher scoring NBA. Sure, I appreciate great defense, but I detest allowing defenders to maul the people they are guarding. There's no place for Wisconsin-style defense at any level. It just makes for ugly unwatchable basketball.

I've never been accused of being great at math but 14/24 seems pretty great. Did you expect someone to make 14 in a game on 18 shots?

Mixed thoughts on this record by Klay T -- "CHICAGO -- Golden State Warriors All-Star swingman Klay Thompson set a new NBA record by knocking down 14 3-pointers in Monday night's 149-124 win over the Chicago Bulls. Thompson went 14-for-24 from beyond the arc and 18-for-29 from the field, racking up 52 points in 27 minutes while raining down shots from all over the floor." OK, who the heck takes 24 3-point shots in a game? I mean seriously, that's just crazy. Yeah he got a record with 14 3's, but he took freaking 24 of them. If a bunch of guys were taking 24 3's that record would fall pretty quickly. That's just out of control. Then there's the fact this was against a Bulls' team that just doesn't play D, like, at all. At one point the score was something like 95 to 40 something. I don't know, it's a real accomplishment but then, I'm not sure it really is.
