57% of his shot attempts are at the rim....

Which, let me remind you, last season 57.3% of Giannis shot attempts were within 3 feet of the rim.

Also, what does that have to with anything? A bucket is a bucket, shooting in the paint or at the rim are also the most contested shots you can take in the game...if a guy can finish at the rim over guys and through contact then do it.

I'll take a guy knowing his strengths and playing within his game, rather than trying to be a fancy highlight reel and taking low % fade away jump shots....


Gobert and Jordan can shoot 70%
You impressed?
They too have Simmons range

And pls, no Giannis comparison :lol:
Keep it at Lebron, it’s silly enough

So it's not impressive when a guy isn't forcing the ball and avoids taking bad shots?

I mean Ben Simmons is only taking 10 shots a game lol....Joel Embiid, Tobias Harris, Josh Richardson and Al Horford all take more shots per game than him.

I wish Simmons would be more aggressive, because we've seen how he is when he's angry and gets going. But the guy has a pure point guard mentality and certainly is always looking for his teammates trying to set guys up, sometimes he's too unselfish.



Simmons is fine .... but not top 20

I mean literally every NBA top 100 player ranking has him within or right around top 20 as I pointed out with links...

I asked if you're still impressed at the % vs. others that shoot within 8 feet

Well yes, I am. 70% is impressive regardless but a big man shooting 70% and a guard who creates for himself shooting almost 60% are two different things lol
