Jason Terry is a spot up shooter in today's NBA.
Maybe he used to create off the dribble. But those days are long gone. Getting chased off the 3 point line and CREATING a shot out of nothing are two different things.
What do we see more...Terry off the dribble or Terry shooting a wide open 3 because Dirk is doubled? Which is why losing Barea hurt the Mavs so much. Terry rarely creates any more. But JJ did for himself and others. Just facts.
No need to challenge my knowledge of the NBA.
I dont even play NBA 2k12...Just to let it be known.
But thats neither here nor there.

And if Young's Defense comes into question. Like I stated earlier
Hes top 15 in NBA as an ISOLATION defender.
I can pull stats and video to prove that but what for?
What is the basis for even saying Nick Young is a poor defender?
A couple plays? Numbers say otherwise and his numbers with the Clippers back that even further....
The NBA offense is all about isolation these days even more....he defended it well enough to be ranked 15th as an ISO defender in NBA last year...should translate to a well enough on ball defense rating.

Just saying...

and as far as Nick Young not dunking on anybody?...
Youtube Nick Young Dunks. He dunked on Lebron James...off two feet.
Dunked on some 7 footers. ...Go see for yourself....
There's more to defense than just defending the Iso game...

He's not a top 100 defender. He couldn't guard a wooden post.
