Only Hollinger ass dudes obsess about efficiency. At the end of the day, basketball is entertainment, people don't buy tickets hoping to see the most efficient game. This matters to players I guess but what's so special about it as a fan?
Than stick to Gerald Green highlights

Also I like how this REFUTES THE LIES of these atheist and non-believers who continue to spew that Bron doesn't shoot jump shots and only has dunks and lay ups.

HE'S SHOOTING OVER 50% FROM BEHIND THE 3POINT LINE!!!!!:merchant:

this is where watching the games comes in play

I watch almost every Heat game and Bron is NOT a great 3 point shooter. He just is very smart about picking his spots. He usually only takes good looks. And usually only at his sweet spots. He's not very good at the top of the key 3 or the wing 3s. He's however very good on that corner 3. If you watch him play, you'll see most of the contested 3s he hits are corner 3s. He usually misses from other spots if its contested.

His great 3pt% is more a factor of good decision-making than just being a great 3pt shooter. For example, Durant who is a much better 3 point shooter than LeBron just takes alot more difficult attempts, hence a lower percentage. Kobe we all know takes the most ridiculous attempts of 3 and the good thing is that when he makes them we have the GOAT highlight tapes ever but when he misses (which is more likely), it hurts his percentages.

Just remember, Greg Popovich is no fool. He basically dared Bron to shoot outside shots last year in the Finals and for the first 6 games he looked like a genius. Bron just had a hot streak during game 7. I'll take my chances with Bron shooting outside shots anyday. I'll win 6 times outta 7.

Remember back in the early 2000s when nikkas was scoring 40 and 50 point games every other night entertaining us with crazy shots. Lunch room debates about whose the best Kobe, AI, or T-Mac. nikkas would be going in on who has the better jumper, did the sicker move last night, etc. :wow:

Now we're supposed to praise nikkas for their shooting percentages. :comeon: What has the NBA come to? Take me back to the 00s, I don't find this new NBA where efficiency is seen as some holy grail. .

You watch basketball to be entertained. Anything more than that, you need serious help

exactly

this nikka don't understand that we like to watch Kobe cause what he does is exciting

if Kobe decided to play like LeBron and not take as many WTF shots like he does not then I wouldn't watch his games as much

basketball is entertainment. There's a reason no one watched the Spurs play even though they won 3 titles last decade. Its cause they were BORING. Being good at basketball doesn't necessarily mean entertaining.

You don't think watching a player go 15-18 for 40 Pts it's an entertaining feat

What is entertaining than?

depends on how he got it

if its one of those patent LeBron games versus the Bobcats where he gets 13 of those 15 field goals in the paint then no that isn't entertaining

however if its 15 of 18 from shyt like this

then hell yeah it would be entertaining

Playing with a bunch of superstars makes the game easier :smugbiden:

Lebron's fg% in years before decision: .475% clip
Lebron's fg% in years after decision: .538% clip

Wade's fg% in years before decision: .482% clip
Wade's fg% in years after decision: .505% clip

Bosh's fg% in years before decision: .492% clip
Bosh's fg% in years after decision: .507% clip

I'd like LeBron alot more if he kept taking shots and scored 50 a night rather than just settling to shooting 50%.

50 point games are more exciting than 30 points on 60% shooting from layups and open 3s.
It's clear that you don't watch games or even read the article. If you did you would know that many of his points are coming from contested jumpers and post play. And what do you mean by open lay ups? You make it seem like they let him walk to the rim. :russ:

lebron prolly the most boring superstar in nba history

If LeBron could do just one of the moves Kobe did in that game against the Knicks I just posted I'd be his biggest fan. He seems like a good person with a nice family but dude game just doesn't do it for me. I'd like to be his fan but can't bring myself to it.

Anyone who mentions MJ again is fool. I am tired of hearing about the most overrated man in Basketball history.

canstop and fagnificent would rather watch kobe go 6/24 and get 18 free throws and call that entertaining than see an all around efficient game of basketball. their opinions don't mean shyt.

They the same fakkits who think Kobe stat padding against a sorry Raptors team can be compared to MJ's 69.
