For thinking that a player should be making 50% of his shots


You my nikka, but basically yea.
What perimeter player has ever shot 50% consistently enough that you would expect that type of performance enough to be brazen about it in a conversation about basketball metrics?

50% for a guard is god mode, any way you look at it.

Should be as close to 50% as possible.

You can't shoot 30 times and not get at least 30-40 points. You just can't. If you're a good player you gotta do AT LEAST that.
It's like a guy throwing the ball 60 times in a game and getting 305 yards. Yeah you got 300 yards, but that's just ridiculously awful.

I mean, yea but it just doesn't happen.

Maybe you're not an analytics guy and that's cool and all, but trust me when I tell you 50% for a guard is some otherworldly shyt... especially a guard that shoots 3's as much as Steph.

Curry shot 27 times and HALF were 3 point attempts.
