35 points
7 rebounds
3 blocks
3 assists
5/8 from 3
8/9 from the line

I don't care that there are 3 other Herb threads, he deserves more.

Herb Jones was a 60% career free throw shooter in college. He's shooting 80% in the NBA. He'll never have that natural stroke of a Ray Allen or JJ Reddick...but I think the work he puts in is vastly underestimated. Improvement was inevitable, the guy just breathes ball

Past 4 games, Herb was 7-9 on 3-pt shots...BEFORE... going 5-8 in tonight's game. (Also, had 2 foot faults on 3s tonight, one he made, one he missed, so he shoulda gona 6-10 from 3 tonight)

Lately, it sure seems like Herb is shooting with a bit more arc than I've ever seen. Maybe he has finally turned a corner with his outside shooting. I'm optimistic.

Ok, let's not overdo it. Bridges is a dude, and consistent AF. If Herb could do this consistently, we'd be a top four seed

It’s clearly tongue in cheek. The way you should know this is that ATL didn’t call Mikal, by his official moniker, “Catfish Mouth”.

Is it just me or his shot looks different recently? I feel like its smoother and his shot is more under control.

I was half kidding. Obviously he's not going to have 30+ points often, but it didn't feel to me like he had a once in a blue moon stupid hot night. Herb said he felt disrespected after the game, I think he just had enough.



Every team in the league is disrespecting you Herb.

He's now shooting the same % from 3 as last year which is a respectable 34%. He started the season rough but he's been shooting well for like 2 months now

Honestly at the perfect time. His 3 point shooting has partly saved our season.

His shot does look much smoother. Like every shot he took last night I thought was going in when it came out his hand.

The arc was good and they looked to be on target.

As has Trey...if the development continues, look out. I still wouldn't mind more shooters though
