I'll go 41.8%. I believe he will be taking more 3's, with Nash as the primary ball handler, although they will mostly be on spot up's.

I don't see him shoot less than 45% with this team.
last year he shoot 43% but he played 5 minutes per game more than season be4 under phil.
If he can get back to 33-35 minutes with the easy looks nash can find for him, he will be fine.
.446
46%
all I know is that I'm going to be laughing at his % come the end of the season lol
Hard to tell really.
I'm wondering if the addition of Nash makes his job easier and boost his FG% a bit or will it throw it him off and dip his FG% a bit.
I'm gonna with the usual 45% for Kobe.

Bring it on:pimp:
44 - 45.20 %
If he lets nash be the primary ball handler, the trend for players playing with Nash will have Kobe shooting high 40s for sure.
45-46%. He'll get a boost due to what should be a lower ppg volume with Nash/Dwight there with the defensive attention and better spacing they'll give him, and also Nash's brilliant passing.
47%
50%
Yo i love Kobe but this dude just like my boy Levelon. they FG% when they ball just go downnnnn. Like Levelon that fool think he Iverson or sum sht
78.5% Fg
59.6% 3pt
99.9% Ft

This. My God there's going to be a lot of butthurt posters and tears when Kobe wins his 6th.
Having Nash on the team is going to help him a lot. He's always had to be the one who created shots both for himself and his teammates. Hes actually got someone who can create shots for him.
I say he shoots 47-48%
Hell he'd shoot that if he just stopped taking end of the quarter/half desperation heaves. He gives away 2 impossible to make, fg% buster shots a game on those alone. But one thing I've learned watching him play for a decade and a half... He does not care about his fg%
2012 and we're still talking about FG% :lol
if he averages above 25ppg, 41%
if he averages around 23-22ppg, legit shot to hit 45%!
41% is more likely
how does having nash on the team increase kobe'ss basketball iq?
Depends on how he plays tbh. If he stubbornly insists on playing like last year, he could shoot like he did last year again. If he really buys into letting Nash run the offense and takes a somewhat reduced role, he could set a career high in FG%. I think during his prime Kobe had a few years shooting about 47%, which is damn good for a player who shoots as much as he does. I'll play it safe and say Kobe shoots right around his career average of .453
Kobe could shoot anywhere from 40-50%. It all depends on how well he and Nash get together on the court. If he shoots 40% Dwight Howard is going to average 18 boards a game with 6 or 7 being offensive lol. I would like to see him average close to 50% though because that's always been my biggest problem with his game.
39%
People don't realize how many times Kobe had to take bailout shots because the offense was so stagnant. The team would waste time and give it to Kobe last second to pull off a miracle.
39-41%
Volume scorer not efficient.
so in this thread we've learned that Kobe is just a dumb volume scorer that won't shoot above 40% and will not even score 25 points/game while doing so...
okay
around 48%..give or take a % ..the one preseason game he played showed me that he'll have more wide open shots than he ever had his whole career
Kobe fg% doesn't really measure his effectiveness as a player, if he stopped shooting from isos so much he could easily boost to the 50% range. If there was ever a year it would be this year now that he has the best playmaker in the league handling the ball.

I looked this up a while ago, and Kobe attempts like .3 of those shots a game. It's a complete myth that he attempts 2 of those a game, do you honestly think he's shooting like 50% on "real" 3 point attempts?
Edit: Just looked it up on bball reference, Kobe attempted a whopping 8 shots outside of 30 feet last season. If you get inside 30 feet, the shot is plenty makeable.

[QUOTE=Mr. I'm So Rad]What does this have to do with anything?[/QUOTE]
kobe's low FG is mostly to blame because of his poor bball iq and bad shot selection
43-45% Chuckers gonna chuck.
[QUOTE=rodman91]%46.5 with Nash Effect.[/QUOTE]
Maybe even more, he'll get more space this year, I think

[QUOTE=BigMic]Maybe even more, he'll get more space this year, I think[/QUOTE]
I don't think you understand that Kobe's jump shot especially his long jump shot has regressed big time. He really cannot make the 3 point shot consistently anymore because of his age/knee.
He relies way too much on his lift in his jump shot which is why his jump shot has regressed so bad.
Wait Wait... Are you not the same guy who said FG% is a useless stat and that Ts should be the only stat used to judge players?
