If my life depended on some guy shooting a basketball into a hoop, I'd take NONE OF THE ABOVE and do it Snake Plisskin style; on my own, in boots even.

Really surprised that nearly everyone went with Steph 40 foot shot. 40 Feet is nearly half court. I can't think in a vacuum he'd be more than 40%. Jordan is a career 41% freethrow shooter. I might go with Jordan here.

Also really surprised that everyone chose Wall. I guess it wasn't that close?

Also whoever chose Wade 3-pointer over Howard is dead. Wade is a career 28% 3 point shooter, while Howard is a career 57% free throw shooter.

Also the Dirk/Kobe question was a trick question. Kobe was the only possible answer because he would have stolen the ball from Dirk to take the shot anyways.

Um, you didn't say Kobe and Dirk would be guarding each other.

1) Steph Curry 40 Foot Shot or Deandre Jordan Freethrow - I'll go with the percentages
2) Dwyane Wade Three pointer or Dwight Howard Freethrow - Percentages again
3) Dirk 20 Foot One leg shot or Kobe 20 Foot Fade Away. - Sorry Kob
4) Length of Court Footrace while dribbling: Russell Westbrook or John Wall - Wonder what the SportsVue cameras would tell us?
5) Three Point Contest best out of 5: Demarcus Cousins or Anthony Davis - Percentages right?
6) One on One game to 21: Paul George or Kawhi Leonard - Kawhi getting it done on both sides of the ball
7) One on One game to 21: Jahlil Okafor or Karl Anthony Towns - I don't think Jah knows what defense is yet

Choosing a Dwyane Wade three pointer over a Dwight Howard free throw is beyond idiotic. Howard is a career 57% free throw shooter, pretty bad, but he certainly has a better chance of making a free throw than Wade does of making a three.

In fact Wade in his career is not a good three point shooter at all.

It was a (failed) joke, I guess. Some sort of Kobe, ball hogging, thing in there somewhere. I was almost sure of it.

Actually, that occurred to me after I made the post.

So, no fail on your part.
