bball?

[ryanmnelson at verizon.net]

it does explain why he is only shooting 36% from the floor, not what you would want from a close to the basket player.

All the caveats to small sample size (he has made 6 of 17 shots on the year, so he has as many makes as shots blocked), it is just an interesting first data point and confirms what i saw.

we'll see if this is a temproary blip at the start of a young career or something to be worried about in 40 more games.
