RJ or Vince , in one Game RJ takes stupid shots with like 20 seconds on the shotclock an in the next it can be Vince. Both can have a very questionable shot selection.

For the Pistons, it's probably Jarvis Hayes. He's clearly been told that his role is to come off the bench and score, but I can't figure out why he takes some of the shots he takes. I'm fine with him shooting with his feet set, but he's terrible off the dribble or driving it to the hole. And yet, it seems like every time he gets the ball, he's just looking to get off some kind of shot.

I would've said Tmac, but at least he makes some of them. Rafer's been shooting shots he has no business taking lately. Rafer should not be shooting the 2nd most number of shots on the team (lately, around 15 a game) with right around 1FTA per game. That 8-11 from 3 against the Lakers really went to his head.

Speaking of Head...he's a bit of a chucker too, but I've got a man crush on him (who wouldn't, he's HEAD) so I don't mind it that much.

The wolves really do not have one. If anything we want our players to be more aggressive then they are.

Maybe Snyder.

Jackson and Baron are both prolific chuckers, but I've got to give the nod to Baron because he could/should be doing so many better things with the ball, especially since he's our PG. One of Jackson's primary roles on the Ws is to be that fearless chucker.

For Detroit, it used to be Flip Murray, whose shot selection borders on sinful, but he's gone. Hayes and Juan Dixon fit the bill nicely, though.

Hughes.
Hughes Hughes Hughes.

Some people might say Gordon, but at least he makes some of these tough shots he takes, whereas Larry Hughes takes Kobe Bryant - level difficulty jumpers but he's got a below average jumper.

You could say Nocioni too, but he doesn't really take a lot of terrible shots.

Rashard McCant is the biggest chucker on the T-Wolves, but it's more of a good thing than bad.

Well House and Cassell can be chuckers, but usually they take the shots off of good ball movement or they make enough of them.

Rondo sucks at shooting so although they aren't bad shots he misses thema and it seems like chucking.

Ray Allen is a ballhog wiht the shots, earlier this year he was shooting at a 39% clip so he was a chucker for a 1/3 of the season.

It's kinda hard to pick out a chucker on BOS's offense because halfcourt were always passing to the open man.. but if I had to pick one it'd be Cassell. House comes close to Cassell in "chucking" and Rondo comes close in terms of just missing shots in a row to a "chucker"

house's job is to chuck up shots so i don't know if he really counts

rondo doesn't exactly chuck but he always seems to rush his shot in the games i've watched

There is not a single BIG MAN chucker worse than Kris Humphries. It is unbelievable how stupid/selfish he is.

I don't mind T-Mac's tough shots as much as Rafer. T-Mac keeps the other team honest. People will double him even when hes cold because they know he will try those crazy tough shots. When he brick the shots, the rockets are still in the game. The doubles leave the other team volunerable to offensive rebounds. And when T-Mac make those shots, it changes the momentum of the game completely. Demoralizes the other team while energizing the rest of the Rockets. T-Mac's hot streaks almost always help the rockets build leads. They have like a .800 winning percent when Tracy goes for 30+ (I think).

Rafer on the other hand.. when hes hot, he keeps the rockets in the game. Usually doesn't help us build leads, but its cool when he makes them becuase the other aspects of his game are decent. But when hes cold, it really makes you wanna kick him in the balls.
