He is not one of the best midrange shooters in the league. He might be a pretty solid one, but he's no where near the best. Just go through the superstars, Nash, Kobe, Pierce, Tony Parker, Wade, yadda yadda all better midrange shooters.

You dont watch him enough. He is.

I don't disagree that I don't watch him enough, but I've seen him enough to know that he's no where near the quality of the top players in the league when it comes to midrange shooting.

I could claim that Rondo is one of the best at going to the hoop in the league, I could even spout out stats to prove it. However it would be biased because he's one of my favorite players.

This should be a Zach Randolph appreciation thread

Sure. Treat it as such.

Ellis is very young and very talented. He is a top 5 player quickness wise. He scores more points in the paint then Dwyane Wade. Hes a very good young player, and hes only getting better.

Which further proves my point about his midrange game.

Rondo scores a ton in the paint. Pretty impressive. hes also a pretty poor shooter on a very good team. he isnt gonna hoist up a ton of jumpshots. Most of his points will coem in the paint.

Not really. It just proves he has other strengths. He has a damn nice midrange game. I agree that players like Wade, and Parker are better. But hes near that level. And hes getting better.

Dirk is the best midrange shooter in the game

[White Boy]

The Cavaliers are not entertaining at all.

[Spencer]

Hes a different player without Jackson. Hes also completely healthy. Last year was a lost year. Even when he played last year he wasnt 100%.

I think its Kobe.

[White Boy]

Kobe is the best midrange shooter in the game.

Pierce is damn close as well.

Imagine Lebron at PF with some nice athlete around him. Theyd be sick. Getting Shaq was dumb. He onyl really helps against Orlando, whcih will be important in the playoffs but every other game hes useless.

There's no think in that. Dirk shouldn't get credit for being tall.

[Pacman]

yeee

[Spencer]

Id say Dirk is top 5. I love Parkers jumpshot too.

[Pacman]

want 200 tonight

[Spencer]

Also. In 3 years Morrow will be regarded as the top 3 point shooter in basketball.

[Spencer]

Matt GL @ the game with your blue head.

[White Boy]

If Rondo was on a shit team he'd be a 20ppg scorer. There isn't a PG in the league that can guard him going to the hoop, he'd shoot 15 times a game as well. He also might be crazy which is hindering his game, especially his FT shooting.

[Pacman]

morrow is sickkk

[Pacman]

he better be invited to the 3 pt shootout

Dwight shouldn't get credit for having hops. Wade shouldn't get credit for having the best first step in the league.

Please

Hes a great young player. I just don't think hes a player that would be better with less of a supporting cast. I think he gets better looks because of KG, Allen and PP. I also think if he were the top option on a team that teams would focus on letting him shoot jumpers.

Zach Randolph shouldnt be credited for being so good he doesnt need to pas.
