1. Kevin Garnett (5-for-27, 18.5 percent)
2. John Wall (6-for-32, 18.8 percent)
3. P.J. Tucker (7-for-32, 21.9 percent)

This one hurts me on a personal level in all three spots. Garnett, with his length and ability to get his shot off on anyone, shouldn’t be so bad here. But, his body has about 30 basketball years on it from the tenacity he plays with. Wall is known as a substandard shooter and he might just be out of control when he gets to the bucket these days and Tucker is simply out of his offensive realm here.
