Top 5 GOAT mid-range scorers?

[russwest0]

Wade has a great midrange game also
UD use to have a awesome midrange jumper but after he got hurt it's been M.I.A

Didn't Haslem go like 8 for 8 in midrange shots one game last year in the ECF?

Wade's a great player but I wouldn't say he has a great midrange game. He's been improving on it basically his whole career but he never had an elite shot.

01 - Oscar Robertson
02 - Dirk Nowitzki
03 - Alex English
04 - Jerry West
05 - Walt Frazier

Honorable mention: Steve Nash, Hal Greer

Great list.

I find it completely odd that nobody has Oscar Robertson on their list.

He's arguably the greatest mid-range shooter in basketball history. I'd estimate that about 95% of his baskets were scored from mid-range, and his accuracy/efficiency was tremendous.

If anyone made a living off the mid-range shot, it was Oscar Robertson.

No one remembers him

People need to do their homework.

Exactly. I seriously doubt that any knowledgeable fan here has ever heard of Oscar, or that he had the only triple-double season in NBA history. Same with players like Wilt (100 points in a game), and Russell (11 rings.) Completely forgotten.

Carmelo Anthony deserves to be said in this thread.

[necya]

when i think about mid range, i think strangely about glenn Robinson, Jerry West, Bernard King, Horace Grant and Sam Cassell during the 2004 season haha
