Unless you're shooting 60% from mid range, start shooting 3s. That's what the numbers say at least

Pretty much because of the higher value of 3pt shots l. A guy shooting 38% from 3 is more valuable than a 50% mid range shooter on the same volume easily.


It's up to coaches though, guys like Spo see how the game has changed and move accordingly.


Spo doesn't get enough credit man, he's got a really great basketball mind, he's going to be a great coach even after Bron/Wade/Bosh are gone.

that would be aan overstatement, the number don't take into account a certain amount of diversity you have to have for an offence to function properly.


Its kind of like ISO plays, they are inefficient plays but you have run a certain amount to be effective as an offense other wise you are too easy to scheme against.

dirk, kobe, and wade have had great success as mid range jump shooters. i know the stats say otherwise, but i wish more players mastered the mid range game.

I mean, in not strictly advocating only shooting 3s. But the threat of the 3 itself opens up tons of driving lanes just from strong closeouts on defense
 
:lol at every one of Steph's 3 pointers being green except the right corner on high volume.

He's going to be the greatest shooter ever as long as his ankles don't fail him.

And its not like they are wide open threes... dripple 360 fade away 3s are easy for him.

i understand what you are saying, its just that no one shoots 60% from mid range. not even dirk God Mode Dirk.

who's gonna watch that over the other options tonight?
I agree with Shuttles, it will out do any game going on tonight, football is too popular.

I'd love to see the numbers on that @HerbShuttles15...stack em up between the NBA games, the NHL games and Yanks/Sox on ESPN.

That's my point though. That's why less people are shooting it. You get the same production shooting 40% from 3 as you do 60% from midrange
