The same way you be top ten and only shoot 38% from the FT line over the course of season.

They same way you can be a 6'10" center with 11 rings and have career FG% of 44%.

The same way you can be the GOAT and have 5 seasons of shooting under 20% from the 3 point line.

It's irrelevant in any sort of top 10 all-time ranking.

Yet none of those players were know for that part of there game

Kobe was known for scoring and he never shoot .500 once

That's like Russell never avg more than 10 rpg

Or Jordan never avg 30 ppg in a season.

Jordan wont go down as a top 5 3 pt shooter
Russ won't go down as a top ten scorer
And wilt wont go down as a top ten free throw shooter

The so called top 5 SHOOTING gaurd never shot 500 or better even fukking once you can't be in the top ten discussion than

You'd get clowned so hard around my boys saying some dumb ass shyt like that :russ:

Now that his career is over I see alot of people claiming he is top ten or better

But how can you a top ten player never shoot .500 or better even once

Every other player that would be in the top ten did it once or multiple times

Hell Reggie miller did it 4 times and he was strictly a shooter

How can you be one of the best ever and never do it once?

The same way you can be 1-2 in the finals with 6 wins and 9 losses and be considered better than Kobe Bryant.

Springfield Armor forward Willie Reed will sign with the Memphis Grizzlies on Monday for the rest of the season, agent Joel Bell told RealGM on Sunday afternoon.

Reed averaged 14.8 points, 7.8 rebounds and 1.8 blocks for Springfield this season, posting 12 double-doubles in 48 games. At 6-foot-10, Reed will bolster what’s already a big, physical Grizzlies frontcourt.

Future terms of Reed’s contract with the Grizzlies are still being worked out, Bell said.

Reed, 22, played two seasons at St. Louis before going undrafted in the 2011 NBA draft.

i guess the nets really weren't serious about avoiding miami in the 2nd round.

only caught the game at the end but the announcers were talkin about toronto was leadin by as much as 21.

if nets had won indy still would've had the 1 game lead on the loss column (after this L to the knicks) but nets just deaded themselves here. could've potentially had a ny/brooklyn 2nd round matchup.
