Jennings chimes in on Korver trade: 'They gave LeBron another shooter'
It's not like the Cleveland Cavaliers were in desperate need of outside shooting - ranking second in the Association in 3-point makes and shooting percentage per game on the season - prior to their reported trade with the Atlanta Hawks for Kyle Korver.
Yet, here we are, with one the greatest outside threats in league history apparently making his way to Ohio to join the reigning NBA champions.
Point guard Brandon Jennings of the New York Knicks had a chuckle over Cleveland surrounding four-time league Most Valuable Player LeBron James with yet another shooter on his Twitter account Thursday night.
They gave Lebron another shooter 😂😂😂😂

Big man Channing Frye ranks second in the NBA in 3-point percentage at 46.5, while All-Star guard Kyrie Irving sits 17th at 42 percent. James, Kevin Love, and Iman Shumpert are all converting over 37 percent of their attempts, as well.
