Ahhhh my favorite time of year…when everyone who bashes the midrange game suddenly comes out of the woodwork to praise the skill and usefulness of the midrange game. Classic.
SGA did all that without relying on the 3 ball (1-4). Instead he relied on midrange pull ups off the dribble and slicing into the paint. Kobe 2.0, people, and the Clippers traded him for a broken down, busted up Paul George lol.

I don’t think anybody saw that coming. I am a big fan of a player with a good midrange shot. Give me that and I will close my shop for the day and call it a successful day.
Thing about the 3 point shot…..a good/great 3 pt shooter is 37% or higher……a poor 3 pt shooter is 34% or lower…..(those are my ballpark perceptions)….so out of 100 3 pt shots taken, that’s a difference of around 5 made….I’m sure there are stats out there for contested shots, late in the game 3’s, 3’s that win a game…..3’s made on each day of the week that end in the letter “Y”…..etc…
