Recently, Sports News, a well-known American media, listed ten players with extremely strong scoring ability but extremely low career shooting percentage.
Since perimeter players are naturally not dominant in the comparison of shooting percentages, this time the list is bounded by a 45% shooting percentage. However, the top 10 players selected are still concentrated in the defender position...
Of course, at first, Sanfat also questioned the significance of this list. But when he saw that the super scorers led by Jordan, Durant, Curry, Wade and others still maintained an amazing shooting rate, Sanfat felt that everything made sense!
For supergiants, hitting percentage and high scoring are never incompatible. Michael Jordan, a 10-time regular season scoring champion, has a career shooting percentage of nearly a terrifying 5 percent! That's basically the level of the ceiling for an outside player!
Then this issue of Sanfat will bring you an inventory of players who have strong scoring ability but extremely inefficient shooting percentage. I hope that all the viewers who like it don't skimp on the likes and shares in your hands~
Tracy McGrady (15 years NBA)
Career total: 18,381
Career Goal Percentage: 43.5%
Career three-point percentage: 33.8%
Highest Shooting Percentage in a Single Season: 45.7% (01-02, 02-03)
Brief comment on the three fats: Maddie, as the youth of the three fats, left too many memorable moments for the three fats! It's just that in terms of hit rate alone, Maddie is indeed not a representative of efficiency... Maddie, who only shot 46% from the field at his peak, is not a star in the scoring efficiency that was pulled away by those players he compared. It's not an exaggeration to call it an "ice shooter"!
Damian Lillard (12 years NBA)
Career total: 21151
Career Goal Percentage: 43.8%
Career three-point percentage: 37.1%
Highest single-season shooting percentage: 46.3% ('19-20, '22-23)
Brief comment on the three fats: Just looking at the three-point projection, the three fats who are classified as super elite will not be surprised! However, looking at Lillard's career shooting percentage, he really can't be called an efficient scorer. Lillard, who has a shooting rate of less than 44%, also has a lot of unreasonable shooting options, and this is the biggest reason why it is difficult for him to make personal breakthroughs! After all, not everyone is called Kobe!
Allen Iverson (15 NBA career)
Career total: 24368
Career Goal Percentage: 42.5%
Career three-point percentage: 31.3%
Highest shooting percentage in a single season: 46.1% ('97-'98)
Three Fat Brief Comment: The answer is undoubtedly great, but the word efficient will never have anything to do with the answer! As a short defender who is only 183cm tall, we can understand the difficulties Iverson is facing on the field. But while all the fans criticized Kobe Bryant's crazy iron, did he think of the individual performances of those who were on the same level as him? Double standards are the most disgusting in the world, there is no one!
Russell Westbrook (16 NBA career)
Career total: 25211
Career Goal Percentage: 43.8%
Career three-point percentage: 30.4%
Highest shooting percentage in a single season: 47.2% ('19-20)
Three Fat Brief Comment: Three Fat really don't understand how the current Wei Shao has become a look that everyone dislikes... In the early years, Wei Shao relied on a strange but efficient "zombie jumper" to beat opponents from all walks of life without temper. But after the big injury, Wei Shao seemed to have lost his shooting bag overnight! When others are old and their athletic ability declines, they will choose to practice their projection ability hard, and only Wei Shao will do his own thing. Averaged a timer per game is really abstract...
Vince Carter (22 NBA career)
Career total: 25,728
Career Goal Percentage: 43.5%
Career three-point percentage: 37.1%
Highest single-season shooting percentage: 46.7% (02-03)
Three Fat Brief Comments: From dunking to pitcher, we admire Carter Sr.'s professionalism. It's just that Carter, who transformed too late, still hasn't been able to get rid of the title of "Ice Shooter"... Vince Carter, who shot less than 44 percent from the field in his career, is hardly a high-shooting scorer. However, with only three points, Carter was rated as a master of the B grade by the media! In this regard, Sanpang thinks that it is still necessary to look at it dialectically...
James Harden (15 years NBA)
Career total: 25885
Career Goal Percentage: 44.1%
Career three-point percentage: 36.4%
Highest single-season shooting percentage: 49.1% ('11-12)
Three Fat Brief Comments: The first few seasons of his debut were Harden's most efficient personal seasons, and then although Brother Deng's scoring ability exploded, he had no chance with the word efficiency... In the years when the Rockets were at their peak, Dengo, who played under D'Antoni's magic ball theory, gave up almost all of his mid-range shots. Except for a small number of breakthroughs, it is a lot of three-point shots! This is undoubtedly a huge damage to the player's shooting percentage...
John Havlicek (16 NBA career)
Career total: 26395
Career Goal Percentage: 43.9%
Career three-point percentage: 0%
Highest single-season shooting percentage: 46.4% ('69-70)
Three Fat Brief Comment: As an early NBA god, Havlicek's shooting percentage can be said to be quite impressive in that era! Just to provide a fixed standard or to make this old man successfully make the list... It stands to reason that it is somewhat absurd to take the sword of the previous dynasty to behead the officials of this dynasty. But until there is no more reasonable measure, everything can only be like this.
Paul Pierce (19 NBA career)
Career total: 26397
Career Goal Percentage: 44.5%
Career three-point percentage: 36.8%
Highest single-season shooting percentage: 49.7% (10-11)
Three fat brief comments: Compared with the few people in front of him, Pierce's hit rate is undoubtedly a performance that stands out from the crowd! As a representative of the offensive kaleidoscope, Truth was the least effective personally during the period when he led the team alone. And this also lowered his career total shooting percentage... After welcoming Garnett and Junzijian to join, Pierce's hit rate did not decrease but increased! In the 10-11 season, it reached a shooting rate of nearly 5 percent. This is really valuable for a player who uses shooting as the main way to score!
Carmelo Anthony (19 NBA career)
Career total: 28289
Career Goal Percentage: 44.7%
Career three-point percentage: 35.5%
Highest single-season shooting percentage: 49.2% (07-08)
Three Fat Brief Comments: In comparison, the efficiency of the offensive end of Gua's career is not bad. In the early stage of his career, the overall efficiency of Gua Ge, who accounted for too high a proportion of shooting rights, was average, but in the later stage, Gua Ge, who was willing to lower his posture to assist others, significantly improved the rationality of his shot selection by a notch! If you give Melon a bad team, I believe that Anthony's entry into the 3W club is naturally a certainty! It's a pity that I didn't get the championship in the end, and I didn't get the data...
Kobe Bryant (20 years NBA)
Career total: 33643
Career Goal Percentage: 44.7%
Career three-point percentage: 32.9%
Highest single-season shooting percentage: 46.9% (01-02)
Three fat comments: If it weren't for the overstretched shooting rate in the last two seasons of his career (37.3% and 35.8%), I believe that the flying man would have taken off the hat of this ice shooter! Of course, choosing an unreasonable strong shot is the point where Kobe Bryant has been criticized the most. But it is this paranoia that makes this greatness! If each ball had chosen a more reasonable solution, then he wouldn't be called Kobe...
The above 10 players are representatives of players with extremely strong scoring ability but extremely low shooting percentage. I wonder what you think of it?
For Sanfat himself, the 45% hit rate cut-off may be too harsh. However, with Jordan, Durant and Curry as models, these 10 gods have to swallow the infamy of "100 tempered into steel"...
Then the inventory of this issue is coming to an end here! If you have any different opinions and opinions, please leave a message in the comment area, as long as you are objective and rational, you will be happy to reply! Looking forward to your arrival~
