No, MJs effeciency is correlated more to the volume he takes. Any regular and playoff seasons he takes 2 or more attempts a game he averages decent 3pt effeciency
Whatever biasis you have against MJ don't twist reality to suit your narrative
Buddy, Jordan’s increased three point percentage happened during the seasons the three point line shortened. That’s the entire reason he took more threes in the first place.
Ohayo is one of our more knowledgeable posters on the site. He’s anything but a troll.
But that's just wrong. He had seasons without the shortened 3pt line where he had increased his volume from around 2 and above and his effeciency was decent.
His overall playoff 3p effeciency minus the shortened 3pt line years were also decent and he had somewhat overall decent volume that was meaningful.
That poster was using MJs seasons where he attempted only around 1 or less 3pa in a league where teams were averaging 3-7 attempts a game to make his claim. Which is ludicrous.
After seeing his responses with other posters, I can see now that he wasn't trolling, but rather just very biased against MJ in his analysis and conclusion.
Any serious unbiased analysis would conclude there is no inconclusive evidence of how good he would be if he increased his 3PA volume to resemble the type of number of attempts today....BUT there are signals to indicate that he would be decent.
Other than having seasons where he attempted a certain amount of 3pt in a normal 3pt line, he generally made them at a decent clip......
He was also a good FT shooter and was elite mid range shooter. And this normally correlates to also being NOT a bad 3pt shooter (yes there are some exceptions but that's generally not the rule).
Also, when the line was shortened, he shot them at a good %,, way above the league average...to say that 1 foot 9 inches difference is somehow his achilles heel which makes MJ fall behind the league average is a bit of leap in faith........especially if we consider that he had seasons on a normal 3pt line where his volume was decent, he was also effecient.
So yes your right...he wasn't trolling, his disdain for MJ is just clouding his jusgement
