Basically every good player excels in the mid range.

Post ups aren’t bad if your big can pass and draw fouls out it. Hence Embiid and Jokic are tops in post up PPP

There's excelling and there's being so historically good at it that you start, or revive a trend
Like the difference between Kyle Korver, who you can say excels at the three, and Steph Curry

Korver is a historical shooter though.

Even Jokic is under a point per possession in post up situations...
Embiid's literally the only guy in basketball with strong metrics at any level of volume.

Will never understand how a jumpshot is a bad shot if you can actually shoot. For example, Kawhi can shoot and actually shoots and makes a lot of mid range jumpers. Expands his skillset. I'm sure Ben Simmons would agree that a jumpshot is terrible play.

Tons of players excelled at the three point shot before Curry came along. But he was so good at it he singlehandedly changed how the league approached the 3 point shot.
You never know if someone equivalent to him at the two point shot will reverse the trend one day

I haven't looked at numbers or anything, but I'd venture to say that DeMar DeRozan is probably one of the best mid range scorers ever. His refusal to extend his range has become a detriment to his team as well as what he can be as an overall player.
That's why guys like Kawhi and KD are far superior offensive players to him. They can stretch the floor, attack the basket, and thrive in the mid range.

Maybe by Vegas, but analysts were all on Dame and check nuts. After what Dame did to Russ and cj did to, who was it, Denver? It def wasn't 1 sided or a foregone conclusion like that. Dubs were expected to lose to rockets and Portland. It's all Chuck and Shaq and Kenny and SAS and Nick Wright and Shannon said for a week straight lol

I remember The Bulls/Suns series, mostly all sports after 1992. I remember Sam cassell and Robert Horry as rookies, Nick Van Excel, Eric Montross, etc.
my family is a sports family. Mom was a huge BJ Armstrong and Isiah Thomas fan.
Eric Montross sorry a*** was a BEAST on NBA JAMS
