But I realize this thread is the place to promote false narratives and ignore the actual numbers, so you just go with the flow . . . . . |
Just being devil's advocate here, he's a 50% career shooter which is a product of him being a SG that couldn't shoot threes very well. He wasn't horrible at it, but Lebron James is a better shooter than he was. If you don't shoot that many threes, your FG% will always be higher.
Jordan was perfectly suited for THAT NBA. He would of course be one of the best or best players in the NBA now, but his style may not be as effective nowadays just because NBA analytics people have determined the most effective ways to score.
