    Default MJ averaged 10-15 PPG on catch-and-shoot

    The same as Reggie Miller, Ray Allen, or Rip Hamilton.. These guys ALSO got 10-15 PPG on catch-and-shoot, while the rest of their points were FT's and maybe a couple catch-and-go buckets or transition.

    The only difference was that Jordan got about 15-20 ADDITIONAL points via other methods, including post, catch-and-go, and primary ballhandler.

    MJ had the same elite catch-and-go ability as these guys, but simply did many other things as well.

    Tell me how I'm wrong here.. Also, given MJ's vastly higher volume, his total points scored via catch-and-shoot is probably the same or even higher than than any of the aforementioned players.

    Btw, people always say Jordan couldn't shoot as good as these guys but he's a better shooter on ALL types of 2-point shots and 2-pointers still represent the majority of these players' shot attempts.. Here's Ron Artest saying MJ was the toughest to guard and that he was "like Reggie Miller from the mid-range":

    What exactly are you arguing? This is my first time in one of your threads and I'm wondering what's the debate.

    Eh, maybe mid range/interior but nowhere near the same from the 3.

    One of the best offball guards ever. He didnt have to dominate the ball 24/7 like other players with garbage offball games

    BTW 3ball what version of MJ do u take 1990, 91 or 92?

    1. i see you weren't old enough to watch ray allen play combo guard. Ray allen is very different from reggie and rip.
    2. MJ didn't get that much on catch-and-shoots

    Nice, but Jordan's ball dominance hindered his team, stopping them from playing to their maximum capacity.

    This is evident from 93-94, where Jordan was replaced by a D-League player and the Bulls did not missing a beat, Pippen was allowed to play his role as a primary-ball handler, which allowed him to excel.

    talking out of your ass again when you don't really know, just like with the drop-step.

    MJ scored 10-15 PPG on catch-and-shoot... watch ANY game...

    you are forgetting that MJ averaged 34 PPG for his career.. so incorporating a rip hamilton volume of catch-and-shoot was nothing for him.
