Yes, I was aware that Battie is shooting around  55%, and that Waltuh is
ahead of most Celtics right now in this category. But I was writing about
real scorers, people who can create their own shot and put some points on
the board. Battie get his mostly on dunks and putbacks. Walter scores
around 3 ppg, and we all know that his current gaudy shooting %s are a
statistical anomaly.
