Being a mediocre shooter puts you in the higher end of the top 10. Most of the top 10 were dreadful shooters.

More severe sure but still there's a huge difference. I don't think that can be denied.

It's not true but it's less laughable when you realize how bad most of the top 10 is at shooting. Assuming you have Wilt, Kareem, Shaq, Hakeem, Russell and Duncan in your top 10 (almost everyone does), LeBron is at worst the 4th best shooter in the top 10. I think a lot of people would rank LeBron over Magic as a shooter too despite the...

The old rule used to be if you were a good FT shooter, you probably were a good regular shooter, but might not be (since you have all the time in the world to line up the shot...that you wouldn't get in regular game shots), but if you were a bad or average FT shooter, you definitely weren't a good regular shooter.
I mean, the guy is below...

Having instant success or not will have little to do with Redick's abilities as a coach.
The Lakers are a veteran team. Their success is gonna come down to the strength of the roster compared to where other teams are next year. JJ isnt holding any magical secrets of basketball that these players havent been exposed to, nor is any other coach....

No, the gaps between Mikan and Shaq are *significantly* more severe than between the modern era and Wilt/Kareem.
Just in terms of face validity and gut feeling, don't you think Shaq would make Mikan look substantially more foolish defensively than Embiid would make either Wilt or Kareem look defensively, even with the three in play?
Mikan...

This is truly laughable. LeBron has always been a mediocre FT shooter which I feel is the quintessential litmus for being a good shooter.
If you literally cannot shoot well unguarded what use are you as a shooter.?

Yeah. You've clearly lost this. The article and entire conversation is about MJ's specious and tenuous case for the DPOY based on historically inflated defensive stats in 1988. Then you come babbling about 1993 which is half a decade later and completely irrelevant. I think I'm done engaging you.

He's talked about as some Godly shooter, because he was a hyper-elite shooter in his era, and all-time level by any standard from the line.
If you are making the point JJ Reddick made to "Mad Dog" on ESPN, that's perfectly true, but also pretty irrelevant with how players are usually evaluated in sports across eras.
If Bird isn't a great...

Mediocre offense w/ plus defense doesn't demand draft picks to be included though.
Especially on the wrong side of 30 due for a new contract which the receiving team could end up with a 1yr rental.

Loyalty to 10th-11th rotation bench guys will not win championships. This is not a bunch of young players that should need mentorship.

Well, asking you, what do you think the Kuzma package from Dallas rumored at the deadline was for?
I'm pretty certain it will not take a lot to get guys like Kuzma or Grant. THJ is an expiring and Kleber is a decent vet that teams won't mind absorbing because he's not disruptive despite producing minimally.
I think the Mavs need to take a...

Well the talent pool in Embiid's era is also 1000x the size of Wilt's and Kareem's.

I never said LeBron was a better shooter, I was just pointing out Bird being talked about as some godly shooter in the modern sense doesn't really hold up to reality. I'm sure Bird could adjust and learn to shoot 3s well on high volume, but I also think the same is true of a lot of guys who were objectively bad 3PT shooters back in the day. Alex...

I'm rooting for him. Anytime a guy shows a lengthy history of being a hard worker and maximizing all of his skills, I'll always be on them.
He was a player who was undersized, not very athletic and had a negative wingspan if I remember correctly. He established himself and worked tirelessly to have a very respectable career.

No it doesn't, because any serious person considers both the *depth* of competition along with the degree of dominance.
Bird's 3pt+ for his career is actually higher than Curry's (by eight points), but no one would really claim Bird was a better three-point shooter because his peers within-era were radically worse than Curry's at hitting...

Reading a lot of complaining from the Bulls front on social media. I think people have lost sight that Caruso is a30 yr old with career playoff averages of 6 PPG on 53% TS.
People need to Fred Flinstone foot through the floorboard pump their brakes.

Piccolo Daimao, a Japanese character. That's two threads in a row from highwhey that relate to Japan.
