wade with a revealing quote about the changing mentality of NBA players

FG%, Blocks, Steals. All 3 are the most overrated stats in basketball.

Are people still trying to use Kobe's FG% as an argument against him? :oldlol:

45% is perfectly fine for the type of player that he is.

F[COLOR="Black"]u[/COLOR]cking stat geeks :facepalm Some of you guys have been reading too many Hollinger articles.

[QUOTE=red1]efficiency helps you win ball games dumbass :lol[/QUOTE]
Yup. Thats why lebron and wade and bosh all have less rings than Kobe combined.

I'd actually say it's because Kobe is a top 10 player of all time

just shows the mentality of today's 2 yrs old full retards lurking around on ISH

[B][SIZE="3"]The following is the single most overrated stats in the history of the NBA:

-PPG[/SIZE][/B]

doesnt tell you if you played a blow out game for 3 quarters or triple OT thriller.

PPG will be different for a player playing 25 mins or 50 mins in tripile OT game.

[B]FG% is probably the single more important stat to win a game.[/B]

well illustrated

Shaq's little brother for life.

NBA's greatest coach Phil's spoilt child for life.

& later on Gasol + Bynum's kid brother for life.

[B]With out LAL organization, Kobe will never make it to NBA Finals.[/B]

[QUOTE=gengiskhan]F*** left hand !!!

i[B]f you are 1.5 inches taller, bigger, extra long wing span, bigger hands & palm the ball, much more stamina, strength.

I agree. Being a tall athlete with physical gifts is all it took to succeed in the 80s

Gerald Green would have averaged 30/10/10 had he played then.

in this era, can't even get on the court.

[QUOTE=red1]Buck foston that series was a LOL for me. I am just saying that kobe has a chucker mentality and OP is trying to act like that is superior to having an efficiency mentality[/QUOTE]
Chucker mentality has produced more rings than efficiency mentality of three players.:roll:

[QUOTE=The Iron Fist][B]LAL franchise, NBAs winningest [/B]has produced more rings than efficiency mentality of three players [b]by recruiting NBAs winningest coach from Chicago Bulls, NBA's last most dominant big man in shaq & NBA's most talented big men in Gasol & Bynum[/b] .:roll:[/QUOTE]

Corrected!

relax kiddo. kobe was just along for a ride.

Lakers 5 rings are product of Jerry West, KAJ, Magic & Phils brains. They recruited the NBAs most talented & collectively negated Kobe's ball hogging, shot jocking, poor efficiency.

Kobe has more rings sans Shaq than the other way around.

Also, Shaq had plenty of time to get a ring before Kobe became a star.

5>4, 5>2.1.1

[QUOTE=blablabla]i don't think its great that your star players are hesitant to shoot because they are worried about their percentage[/QUOTE]
LeBron clearly stated that when he looks at the stats it's not that he's thinking "Oh I shouldn't have taken a shot so my percentages don't go down" but that he thinks instead "I should have driven for a layup instead of taking a long 3"

It's an article on shot selection, and LeBron takes pride in having intelligent shot selection. I suppose that's a bad thing though right?
