Message: [QUOTE="Rico444, post: 4528610, member: 263"] It's nice to have the midrange jumper in the toolkit. It's not as efficient as a 3 or layup, but that's generally speaking. If there's 2 seconds on the shot clock and you take a 3 with a defender right in your face because he knows you're going to shoot it, that's not an efficient shot. Same thing if you drive it into the paint and the help defender comes over and you're trying to hit a layup over 2 guys. Sometimes the efficient shot isn't available; the defense knows you're trying to get an open 3 or layup, and they're designed to try to take that away. On some possessions, a wide-open midrange jumper isn't a bad shot. [/QUOTE]
