Default Re: Prop bet- Tuan Le vs. Antoine Walker, 1-on-1

I'm convinced none have you have ever watched Antoine play.

We have seen Toine shoot undefended threes.

They have a contest for it each year, at the mid-season celebration of the All-Star game.
...
So you heard he hits 20 in a row in practice. As a C's fan, I've seen him miss just as many in a row in games. Trust me, other teams didn't put a priority on defending Antoine behind the arc.

He's not better now than he was then; if anything, he's a worse shooter.

Oh, I didnt realize this game was going to be played in 60 seconds.

Yeah, that will make it tougher on 'Toine.

Yeah, I'm sure that extra 2' closer makes no difference, right? If they moved the line back to 25'6", everyone would have the same exact shooting %, that's what you're saying? Oh, right. Maybe not.

Tuan has a gun, 50% chance he wins. Tuan has Norris, 80%. Tuan has Ditka, 99%.

BTW, none of this precludes Toine from throwing the game on purpose to hustle Ivey, Danny, and E-dog. Frankly, he should do that, lose to Tuan for $50k and then hustle everyone else in a weekend for $100k each.

Maybe I'll call him...
