LeBron and Rui working out – Rui hits 10 threes in a row



Based on what we’ve been seeing from Rui over the summer and this pre season, can we expect him to take a leap in his 3pt shooting like we saw in the playoffs?

    Yes… Rui’s issue was his 3 ball was flat.. He’s gotten much more arc on it.

    Mix that with the fact he’ll get a ton of open looks and I wouldn’t be surprised.

    I’m expecting him to be better, but his playoff numbers are obviously unsustainable. If he is around 35% on the year I would be thrilled with that and I don’t think it is unreasonable. Anything above that would be gravy. If he stays a 33% shooter it’s not the end of the world since his middy is so dangerous.

  3. Easily. Practicing with LeBron and Handy are really unlocking his final form. Love this so much for Rui. He had some rough years in DC.

    I can show you clips of Ben Simmons hitting 3’s too. Just wait until the games

  5. Love Rui but I wouldn’t mind seeing him work on passing and overall playmaking. His tunnel vision is what’s genuinely holding him back.

    Hitting 10 in a row isn’t hard for a great shooter. If you actually watch shooter warm up before game, u know they are amazingly accurate. One time I watched Reggie Miller warm up before game and he didn’t miss a single shot for over 15 min
