What is Natural Scorer and Scoring Mentality?

[JohnMax]

We need to define these two basketball terms

[Real Men Wear Green]

Natural scorer=a player that is a scorer from the moment they start to play.

Scoring mentality=the mindset of trying to put the ball in the hole first and foremost.

There you go, thank me.

I think of it as:

Natural scorer = God given talent who easily developed offensive skills needed to score. Footwork, IQ/feel, and touch all came natural to him.

Scoring mentality = Player who looks to score first. Sort of tunnel vision but some like to call it being aggressive too. Labeled as selfish or a ball hogger if inefficient.

Combine both and that's what you call a lethal scorer or an assassin.

Everyone does. That's the definition.
