Best shooting big man currently in the NBA??

[Hoofa22]

Mirza Teletovic from Brooklyn is an amazing shooter :bowdown:

6'9''/6'10'' 252lbs


Who else can shoot the ball over 6'9''??

[Locked_Up_Tonight]

The correct answer is a German.

[DuMa]

Bosh or Dirk.

[Locked_Up_Tonight]

Bosh shoots under 30% from 3 and shoots under 80% from the line. He has no case.

[Hoofa22]

Yes i agree but i do love the way Teletovic makes it look soo easy banging 3's from way beyond the arc

[fsvr54]

Al Horford from midrange.

Have you heard of this guy named Dirk Nowitzki

[Straight_Ballin]

"But...But...But...it's no fair because Dirk sticks his knee out while fading away at the same time!" :lol

[b1imtf]

Dirk from every kind of range

[Cali Syndicate]

That Kevin Love guy is pretty good.

[TaLvsCuaL]

Is not Durant 7ft? He should be in the list.

[AirTupac]

Dirk, Kevin Love, Anderson, Teletovic

[kNicKz]

Is not Durant 7ft? He should be in the list.

OP said big not tall and no he's a little under 6'9" but has crazy wingspan

[LongLiveTheKing]

Dirk or Chris Bosh. Bosh is just smooth.

[CavaliersFTW]

Are you not aware of Dirk or Durant? Bigs that can shoot are nothing unusual in the NBA, ever since Bob Pettit (probably even before him) there's always been some assortment of 6-9+ guys that can stretch the floor with a highly polished jumper. He's not quite 6-9, but Kevin Love is another 'big' that stretches the floor well with a long range jumper.

[CavaliersFTW]

Is not Durant 7ft? He should be in the list.
He's 6-9 w/o shoes, not close to 7 feet. However, 6-9 does meet the OP's criteria and he's absolutely up there with Dirk as far as best big shooter in the league.

[bizil]

When I think bigs, I think guys who play the PF or C spots. So u gotta roll with Dirk, who's the best shooting big man of all time. U gotta be able to stick it from practically anywhere not just midrange. Dirk and Love are the top two in my book as of now.

[Lord Leoshes]

yeah its Dirk, Bosh, Love.
Cartier Martin shot .397% from 3, at 4 attempts per game.
Jeff Green shot .385% on 5 attempts per game.

So those are 2 more.

[Hoofa22]

So nobody thinks Teletovic is a great shooter for his size?

[kNicKz]

He is a great shooter, but far from the best

If he's a little under 6'9 then LeBron James is 6'5

[Fiasco]

If he's a little under 6'9 then LeBron James is 6'5

Durant is listed at 6'9". LeBron is listed at 6'8".

[East_Stone_Ya]

Dirk, Love, Bargnani

[chips93]

kd is 6'9 barefoot, and ought to be listed at 6'11, if the nba were to be consistent

hes a small forward though, not a big man.

[qrich]

Dirk Nowitzki
Ryan Anderson
Steve Novak

>>>

[To4]

Dirk!!!!...

[RR#9]

Durant is listed at 6'9". LeBron is listed at 6'8".

[wally_world]

If Teletovic is considered a 'Big man', then so are guys like Peja, Durant, Novak etc.

[HomieWeMajor]

Dick

[ralph_i_el]

-Dirk
-Al Horford
-Ryan Anderson
-Bosh

[Greg Oden 50]

dirk >>>>>>>>>>>>>>> durant

[alexd]

Brandon Bass and Matt Bonner need a mention

[HomieWeMajor]

Don't be sleeping on KG doe

[arifgokcen]

Bosh for midrange
Dirk for all ranges
Novak for 3s

[HomieWeMajor]

Since when is Novakane a big man ?

[arifgokcen]

Since when is Novakane a big man ?
since mirza teletovic is called "a big man"

[tontoz]

I'll go with the big man that won the 3 point contest and consistently makes tough, contested fadeaways.

[ChuckOakley]

6'9" or taller with 3 point range

Dirk
Durant
Love
Anderson
Novak
Teletovic
Ilyasova
Bonner

Lol, Durants chin is parallel with LeBrons nose and you can tell LeBron is wearing shoes that make him taller than the ones Durant is wearing.

Yeah, there's like a 3 inch difference between those two at least

[SpanishACB]

Yeah, there's like a 3 inch difference between those two at least

you also need to account for the fact Lebron is closer to the camera (just look at the feet and floor squares) and you would also need to consider what kind of camera (cameras don't have eye depth) but yeah, Durant clearly has more than 1 inch over Lebron.

edit: Lebron is also much more leaning towards the woman since he puts his arm over her shoulder whilst Durant doesn't because he probarbly doesn't want to tocuh Lebron.

[scm5]

Best big man that can shoot: Love

Best shooter of the big men: Dirk

[Hoofa22]

Love is not 6'9'' or 6'10'' as listed more like 6'8''/255lbs

1. Dirk 7''/245lbs
2. Bosh 6'11''/235lbs
3. Teletovic 6'10''/252lbs
4. Love 6'8''/255lbs

Durant does not make the cut because he is not a true PF/C even though he is 6'10''/235lbs

[G-Funk]

Bosh or Dirk.
