    Default Should you be called a great scorer if you can't make 50% of your shots

    If you don't shoot 50% that means you miss more than you make

    Perhaps not to a stat nerd.

    By stat nerds yes. Intelligent minds use the eye test.

    Off the top of my head...the following people say yes:

    Wilt
    Jordan
    Bird
    Kobe
    Oscar robertson
    Jerry West
    Gervin
    Nique
    Tmac
    Iverson
    Durant
    Elgin Baylor
    Lebron
    Wade
    Pistol Pete
    Dirk

    Or they would have during the various seasons all shot under 50% while being considered on an all time great level and scoring 25-38 points a game.

    Well technically free throws are shots... Sooo if you took for example, someone like Kobe, and simply asked how many shots did they make out of the shots they took in game then you'd come up with 56% so... chances are whoever you think isn't a great scorer because they missed more than they made, actually probably made more "shots" than they missed.

    Jordan isn't a great scorer then, career average of .497. Chucker

    Should you be called a winner if you fail at over 50% of your championship opprotunities?
