Jump shooters--mid range and deep--assessed. NBA player least likely to take a jump shot: Josh Boone. </p>

Mikki beating out Dirk in efficiency, nice. </p>

 

</p>

You realize these are just statistic's by no means is Mikki Moore actually more efficient than Dirk is. Moore gets easy base-line jumpers from Kidd's passing and doesn't struggle knocking those down, Dirk has to create his own jumper. By no means is Moore more efficient. </p>

That means Dirk is a better player but Mikki's jumper at least for last season was more efficient.</p>

Nice to see Krstic up there as well. I always thought Darko had range though.

Dirk is more efficient, if he got as many easy open jumpers from Kidd's passing he would be shooting a much higher percentage than Mikki Moore. However, Dirk is on of the best players in the NBA so he's double-teamed most of the time. </p>

Thats just it though. By the numbers, Mikki was more efficent. I'm not saying Dirk is not the better player or he can't shoot better than Mikki but whatever the circumstance Mikki last year shot the ball better than Dirk. </p>

 

hm...kidd not among least efficient PG shooters? what happened to _ason?</p>

and collins...geez. what happened to set shot willy?</p>

but still, nice to see boki up there. and krstic.</p>

 

Peg, I was wondering the same thing.

 

GM3, statistically Moore shot the ball more efficiently, doesn't mean he's more efficient. Dirk is pretty damn efficient over double-teams while Mikki is hitting wide open base-line jumpers. Statistics are often flawed in the basketball world.

 

I know that, for the most part I hate numbers in basketball, but I find it funny that Mikki beat out Dirk in that shooting category.</p>

Casual fans are not going to look at how many times they were double teamed etc.</p>

I'm just a Mikki fan.</p>
