I guess I didn't qualify the statement enough for you (although I did say "most" as you pointed out, so in a broad sense, there was qualifying), the statement was about Powell, not anyone else. So let me clarify, most anyone in the NBA that is trying to make the 3 a part of their game can hit 26%. That statement isn't nor was about Drummond at all, it was about Powell's inability to make 3's in any significant way, which is what it looked like you were trying to make a case for from the part of your post that I originally quoted.
If we were to bring Drummond in, I wouldn't be looking for him to start jacking up 3's, just as I don't want Powell doing right now, unless it's end of the shot clock/game clock and he's been passed the ball and can't find anyone else open. That wouldn't be why we traded for him. Maybe with some focus and practice, he could become proficient with it, but not right away at all and not in a game situation until he proves in practice he can do it.
