Yeah it is, because his 36% from behind the arc isn't a very good percentage. It isn't terrible, but it is definitely bad enough that he shouldn't be throwing up 12 per game. That's madness.
It's not just that 90% of his shots are from beyind the arc--it is that he often has two defenders in his face when he is shooting--or is off-balance--or is 35 feet from the basket.
If he were not a dangerous player, opposing coaches would not be so obsessed with covering him whenever they play us.....

So you're saying that 90% of his shots he shouldn't be taking?

Thats pretty terrible rationale. He shouldn't be shooting it, then... Nobody is telling him to stop doing it, but they need to. I don't understand how anyone can want a player on their team taking these shots when you KNOW they go in at an extremely low percentage. Give it to someone who will take a balanced shot and hit it at 45%.
He's a good shooter, but that doesn't mean he needs to take terrible shots and make his shooting percentage 37%. Its really such a basic team-basketball concept.
