Crazy graphic about how the game has changed

What does top 200 mean?

Top 200 shot locations

how you define a location is important to the graphic

Who are you asking? The guy who linked to someone else's tweet?

just pointing out that the answer to Cougarrr's question is not as simple as

The only context I have is the graphic. The graphic certainly points to that

BertoChavez

so do you think it's misleading? I think 3 pt shots are up by 23 since 2000.

I don't. I think the parameters of the graphic are not ideal, though,

RE: It actually is true. Virtually all non-paint 2s have disappeared.

Here is an article (with simple graphics) on the rise of the 3-pointer

Can somebody get this man a heatmap. Judas priest.

shimmy

1/15/20 8:12pm

I'd say the centroid of the body location for any given shot, then a buffer

Top by most taken? Most made?

And not for the better. Now it's like watching the pre-game shootaround, only

Thats clearly a game changer

Agree. I really miss baseline turnaround fadeaways.

And all 10 players in the paint . . .

Sounds like your BIL made a weak argument, and you shut him down. Congrats.

Game Changer

You're right. Jumpers off a flex curl up to the free throw line are much

Why Tyler Haws didn’t make it into today’s NBA, in chart form.

His thriving is relative. The Spurs are a borderline playoff team.

Booker...though he gets to the rim and ft line a lot as well.

PHXSUNS31

1/15/20 8:22pm

Well, that and he isn’t athletic enough, quick enough, good enough at defense

kansascougar

1/15/20 7:36pm

True. Also reasons why jimmer isn’t in the nba despite having a range that reflects that chart.

And normally 4 of 5 guys on the floor can legitimately shoot the 3 as well.

mudpupper

1/15/20 8:00pm

I don’t really care about how shot selection has changed. I just dislike that

Philosoraptor

1/15/20 8:55pm

I find 3 on 3 with two guys standing in each corner waiting for the kickout

No more baseline jumpers. Or any mid-range jumpers.
