“I can sit here and tell you that I definitely have some of our coaches on our coaching staff, they want me to shoot more 3s. They’re encouraging it, encouraging me to shoot more 3s. I can’t do it, I can’t get to that. I can’t get to that point. No, it’s not an ego thing, it’s not an ego thing. It’s like, I’m not putting enough pressure on the defense if I’m shooting 12-14 3s a game. If I’m shooting 12-14 3s a game, I feel like I can hit six or seven of them. If I’m f***ing off, off, then three or four of them. But I can shoot at a high clip if I’m shooting 14 a game, I’m gonna get in a rhythm. But I’m not putting pressure on the defense, and that’s not me. I got to put pressure on the defense, like if we have the guys already on our team shooting a bunch of 3s, which is OK, like I love that, there has to be some pressure on the rim. I have to put some fear in the defense that you’re not about to make me just shoot all jump shots, even if I’m shooting it well.” -via Lakers Nation / May 12, 2024
