Kobe and AI Never Shot Close to 50percent FG% Once In Their Career

Call me different but I never looked at efficiency as a great measuring stick. Give me the guy going 17/39 over dude that went 6/9

A chucker and terrible shot selection yet the Lakers were always top 10 in offensive rating with Kobe leading the way including the Smush/Kwame years Only on the internet

Steve Nash may not have deserved 2 MVPs but he was a fukking dog …Nash would be generational player today

No and No…..

KD, Curry, Bron, Jokic etc are better scorers than AI and Kobe

False. In the 2009-10 season lebron shot over 50 percent, even before the 2010s hit he was averaging over that from the field when the season began. 2000s end by december 31 2009. Secondly guys like steve nash with the same so called fabled ''tougher defense'' where shooting over 50 percent for several years from the 2004 season to the 2009 season nash was very efficient with that same so called tougher defense, same for shooters like dirk who shot over 50 percent with mainly jumpshots and 3s in that same era, so why were kobe and AI inefficient?

SEMANTICS.. IN HIS FIRST 6 SEASONS LEBRON NEVER ONCE SHOT 50%

09-10 SEASON WAS COUNTED AS PART OF THE 2010S, BUT EVEN THEN HE HIT EXACTLY 50%

AND LEBRON OPERATES CLOSER TO THE BASKET.. THIS IS COMMON SENSE

NASH WAS A PASS FIRST PG WHO DIDNT SHOOT UNLESS HE HAD A SURE SHOT, WHICH IS WHY HE NEVER SURPASSED 20 PPG LOL

DIRK IS A BIG MAN… BIG MEN ARE EXPECTED TO SHOOT 50%+ .. GUARDS ARE NOT

BASIC BASKETBALL HOMIE

03-04 Tracy McGardy led the league in scoring, shot 41% from the field. NOBODY gave a fukk about FG%, The game got nerdy crazy after analytics, social media and hot take shows started poppin’ to the point where nikkaz rather not shoot end of the quarter half court shots buzzer beaters to avoid a dip on their fg %.

It’s like that video of Melo where he said if you want to average at least twenty points, you need to make 5 points every quarter. These dudes today are carefully choosing their shots to protect their FG %. They know if they make a certain amount of layups and dunks, they’ll get higher percentage shots then they’ll try to only shoot jumpers when they’re wide open. Players weren’t doing that before. I doubt anyone even knew their PER and EFG in 2001
