Exposing mj and the shortened 3 point line myth

[Bronbron23]

People talk about how mj benefited from the shortened three point line but it's a huge lie. When people say this they try to make it sound like mj played his whole career with the shorter line but it was only shortened during mj's second three peat years. Here are the numbers in the post season that totally crush this myth.

Post season Shortened three point line efficiency:

95-37%
96-40%
97-19%
Average= 32%

Finals:
96- 32%
97- 32%
Average 32%

Post season longer three point line efficiency:
85-13%
86-100%
87-40%
88-33%
89-29%
90-32%
91-39%
92-39%
93-39%
Average- 40% even if you take out 85 and 86 which are outliers it be 36%


Finals:
91- 50%
92- 43%
93- 40%
Average- 44%

As you can see in the post season when mj tried his hardest he was actually way better from the regulation three point line so how exactly did the shortened three point line benefit mj?

MJ is a career 33% 3 point shooter

The seasons he played with a WNBA 3 point line he shot...

50%
42%
37%

And then the season they stretched the line back to normal it went down to 24%

So obviously his percentages clearly benefited from a shortened line

I don't know why you Jordan stans keep bringing up his finals 3 point percentages like it actually means something with such a small sample size foh with your "MJ is a elite 3 point shooter when he actually tries" bs

And he's still only a career 33% from 3 point in the postseason as well off a whopping 2 attempts a game

So I give you numbers from the post season and finals and you come back with a meaningless all star game performance? Good comeback

"he wasn't trying doe" - Jordan stans

[Bronbron23]

And he's still only a career 33% from 3 point in the postseason as well off a whopping 2 attempts a game

So mj barely shot or worked on shooting threes but he was still as good as LeBron who works on it all the time. Good argument bro

[superduper]

The fact that MJ wasn't a good 3pt shooter (by today's standards) yet still the best scorer ever is a testament to his greatness if anything.

Bran stans to dense to get it

At least Jordan had the confidence to put himself out there. True GOAT confidence.

He knew he had no chance of winning. He did it for the exposure. Trying to make a name for himself and build his brand.

So I show you how successful mj was in the post season and finals from three and all these clowns can come back with is a all star three point performance.

What's the next comeback? A video of mj missing threes in a charity game

As you can see, John Rogers exposes MJ lack of range.

And the point wasn't to say mj was a great three point shooter. It was just to show how he in no way benefited from the Shortened three point line, which is a common belief on this forum.
