game? Do you realize that defenses don't just stand back and allow to survey the floor and shoot from the most optimal spot on the floor?

If you really want to nerd out with the shit what is the difference on percentages between spot up 3's and 3's off the dribble?

Shots at the rim and spot up 3's may have a higher percentage because they usually involve being set up by at least on other player. But there are times in an actual basketball game where a player can't wait to be "set-up" and has to make a play on their own. All the people I listed in my post above may not have great "metrics" by your standards but they all have CHAMPIONSHIPS and that is what it's all about.
