And yet he has an MVP and is on his third straight triple double average season, something people considered nearly impossible after the 60s.

Michael Jordan averaged 32.7% from three before they were the focus of most players.

So what exactly would hold Jordan back in today's game? Simmons can win rookie of the year almost never taking one. Giannis can dominate with a worse shot than Westbrook from downtown.

And why couldn't Jordan be an effective 38%, while being able to take advantage of all the open lanes and lack of rim protection? And still have a killer midrange game to go to as needed (unlike Harden)?

Anyone know Jordan's career 3P% without the short 3 point line?

MJ's 3pt efficiency radically increase only when the 3 point line moved closer


Miraculous turn of adjustment period indeed, wonder why it took him so long to finally hit the fairway from the womens tee
