2141071, all midrange is bad.

this doesn't mean that every individual midrange shot is a bad one, but that teams who take a lot of them are bad on offense.

stats for every shot taken this season:

at rim: 64%
3-9 feet: 38%
10-15: 41%
16-23: 38%
threes: 54% (eFG)

anyone arguing in favor of midrange shots is flying directly against all evidence to the contrary.
