Kobe Bryant

[DJ]

Many called him a ball hog/chucker, etc.

I have some evidence to the contrary....

He had an epic final game in which he led them to a comeback win vs the Jazz.

It’s hard to chuck it enough times to score 30 or more if you aren’t shooting it well that night isn’t it?

 

[DJ]

He scored at least 30 points in 43% of his games.

The last 3 minutes of his final game as a broken down old man Kobe.

He just shot at a much lower % compared to the two best players, MJ and Lebron. Huge difference in these numbers imo

Kobe .447 FG%
MJ .497 PG%
Lebron .504 FG %

MJ didn't shoot the 3 as much as Kobe.

MJ didn't shoot the 3 as much as Kobe.

That's called being smart if you ask me.

Coming from the person who loves the 3?

Hypocrite.

Jordan played in a different NBA.

But yes if 3's aren't your thing then doesn't hurt to kill teams with your mid range and shoot the 3 ball occasionally. Sounds like a smart and efficient plan

 

[Shanemansj13]

MJ didn't shoot the 3 as much as Kobe.

That’s smart and they both shot at basically the same %. Lebron has and does shoot it more at a higher clip

When you shoot the 3 about as well as Giannis you shouldn't be shooting 3s. That's for sure

None are chucker. AI was a chucker. But among this group, it is definitely Kobe.

Jordan took more shots, but he also didn’t take as many bad shots.

# of attempts don’t make someone a chucker. If they are hitting 50% it means they aren’t taking very many bad shots.
