It was a classic case of Celtic Nation yelling Nooooooooooo at their television sets until the ball dropped through the net. The funny thing about the three-ball from Squisy is that it actually looked like he knew what he was doing. Prior to that shot, it always looked like he was aiming and not shooting, trying to measure out in his head just how far from the basket he was standing before letting go of the ball, kind of like a golfer trying to get it close to the cup. This shot was different.
Number one, it looked like a confident shot from a real shooter, someone in the NBA who's taken shots from range and made them during big games. Number two, the shot didn't have that Keith Wilkes heave look to it. Instead, Squeezer had the elbow out, firm, and the follow-through was smooth.
If Marquis Daniels improves his three-point accuracy above 30-percent, imagine what that would do for his ability to take to the rack.

i didn't get to watch the game! but i woke up and checked the box score and was like "Whaaaaat" when i saw squisy 1/1 from 3!
Do you think squisy's three point shooting will be like rondo's? Sort of if the clocks low, or as an act of desperation?
Funny. I didn't want to say it, but the form on his 3 pointer looked a bit like rondo's. Not great, but better than in pre-season. Squisy isn't afraid to shoot, he just isn't typically a good jump shooter.
Maybe he's working on his shot.
