KG Never Wanted To Shoot 3s

lol mf got 95 midrange and a 45 three rating 😂

He’d definitely be ruining niggas parlays if he played in today’s game 😂

Midrange was pure and always stepped into the shot

Wait til y’all find out damn near everyone in the 90s did this 😂

remember kids, that shot made him a HOF.....

Muscle memory at his finest, he knew where he wanted to be 👏

The closer you are to the basket, the higher the percentage. This isn't rocket science. Everyone wants to be Steph Curry today. 🙄

It’s his form and footwork. That extra step makes it go in and that foot depends we’re he catches the ball. Js

Because players used to have spots on the court to get it not just wildly jack up 3s KG would literally do anything

@KevinGarnett5KG what the hell, man? You could have been Rashard Lewis on top of what you already were if you just took one extra step back on these.

Not gone lie that shot was dropping every release. Use to love that Dirk vs KG matchup. Dirk was shooting that 3 though.

He had the jumper for it. Only Rasheed, big dog Robinson and Dirk was casting them thangs then. But I say KG, Mcdyess, cwebb and Duncan could have shot more 3s if they were allowed to

It’s because he didn’t play college ball so mentally he was stuck on the high school 3pt line

This is definitely mental with him being right in front of the line like that

statistically the worst shot in basketball. Essentially the hardest 2 pointer you can attempt, for less of a payoff than stepping back 1 foot

No need to force your range if that’s not your game. You can be a stretch 4 and still shoot inside the arch. Garnett can shoot that all day and shouldn’t be left open. Garnett’s prime was peak NBA basketball era

He knew his range I’m willing to bet 90% of y’all hooping today have no idea about finding your range on the floor and staying in it. Just out there chucking from anywhere with no clue.

He gets buckets he not looking for no damn line

Why Shoot 3, when you can get the Guaranteed 2!! Same mindset that Michael Jordan had

but when he did it was electric

This was stupid. If he’s that far out. He might as well. Just shoot a 3.

this shit not strategic its stupid

That’s because he was nails from inside the arc

hes smart, he shot 50% in his career from 2P shots, while he shot 27% from 3

He was stepping into his shot..shooting 3s in the early 2000’s wasn’t a priority like it is today..he clearly had the range to do so if he wanted to

To be fair it’s easier to keep count in twos than in threes 😅

gen z not comprehending the mid range game lol

Ticket in this nba would be amazing

That nigga wouldve won 2 more rings if he shot 3’s he use to launch dem hoes😭

Might as well how close he is to that line😂

my 20 min “top 5 Center” argument is dead if my homies see dis

Karl Malone, Tim Duncan, Charles Barkley all had good/great mid range jumpers but didn’t shoot a lot of 3’s. Different era., different kind of ball.

Billy Donovan would of had KG on the bench

Crazy I was just thinking this a few days ago after watching 100 missed 3s. 1 or 2 steps in would make for more exciting basketball and better games

But we have to admit that his mid range was lethal
