I couldn't figure out how to edit the article, but I thought people should know that Kirk Hinrich was really born January 2, 1981, not February. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 141.156.91.65 (talk • contribs) 17:58, June 18, 2005 (UTC)

[edit] GAC

This article was judged on 7 criteria:

1. Well-written: Pass
2. Factually accurate: Pass
3. Broad: Pass
4. Neutrally written: Pass
5. Stable: Pass
6. Well-referenced: Pass
7. Images: Pass

Congratulations! The article passes. I would like to note, however, that it would be a good idea for someone to in the first instance of terms like apg to define them like so: apg (assists per game), rather than simply linking them. This is not a big enough deal in my opinion, however, to fail the well-written criteria, or even move it to "neutral". --PresN 18:10, 25 August 2006 (UTC)

Thanks for the review, I'll get get started on converting "apg" to apg (assists per game), etc, etc soon. KOS | talk 19:27, 25 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Three-point shooting percentage

Does this really need to be defined?

established a school record with a .505 three-point shooting mark (which is the percentage of shots that have gone in from behind the three point line), leading

See the thread above I think that explains why it was done. Quadzilla99 09:29, 7 May 2007 (UTC)

Should there be anything about the recent fine he received for throwing his mouthpiece into the stands?

I'd say yes there should be. KOS | talk 11:46, 15 May 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Punch to groin on Flip Murray

The article cited says "A video on YouTube provides a replay of the ABC broadcast, which appears to show Hinrich throwing left-handed jab that connected with Murray's groin as he was falling away near the basket. "I didn't think he did it on purpose," Murray said. An NBA spokesman said there would be no action taken against Hinrich." Is this addition to the article "On May 13th, 2007, during Game 4 of the Eastern Conference Semifinals against the Detroit Pistons, Hinrich was involved in controversy when videotape review showed Hinrich punching Flip Murray with a left to the groin as Murray went up to take a shot." really relevant? I'd say no because they kinda say different things. The way it's written in the article now makes it seem like Hinrich tried to hit him. When the article cited article seems to imply that it was an accident. Thoughts? KOS | talk 11:46, 15 May 2007 (UTC)

When you search Kirk Hinrick, you end up on Kirk Hinrich, but Talk:Kirk Hinrick doesn't go anywhere. Why? And how do we get a link to this page? Basketballone10 00:24, 5 February 2008 (UTC)
