then you should kill at the D1 level because it'll be that much easier LOL delusional
Smh i see youre one of those dudes that are very hard to talk too, you seem like the im right and idc what anybody says type.
The word EASY was never used in my post so please stick to the script, all i said was i could hit a jumpshot or two in a game and youre running around like i claimed to be MVP of the All Star game
.Me hitting one or two wide open js because of ball movement doesnt mean im an all american or a lottery pick.

And I'm telling you that if you think you can drop buckets in the NBA then it'll be easier at the D1 level. If you can drop 6 in the NBA you should have no problem dropping 12 in the NCAA.Smh i see youre one of those dudes that are very hard to talk too, you seem like the im right and idc what anybody says type.

And then comes the "if I'm wide open" responses. Ok , why not say I could drop 50 if you were wide open, you're wide open after all right? Lol.... you guys

no an open jumpshot is an open jumpshot , all id do at the D1 level is hit 1 or 2 open jumpshots as well.
Listen if you got an issue with dudes saying theyll get 20+ pts i can understand that but the situation ive presented is definitely feasible.

LOL, lebron has quarters where he scores 0 points, but you'll be money
while you're at it tell us how you could knock out a UFC champ if the conditions were right
a wide open 3 is a wide open 3 brah. and what does lebron scoring 0 have to do with lebron getting double teamed and kicking it out for a wide open shot.
they way you talk you would think we are watching greek gods on the hardwood

You're wildly underestimating how quickly/easily the most sub-par NBA athlete would close out on your your slow-a** release. You're all envisioning scenarios where the other 9 players on the court are playing 4-square in the opposite corner of the court while you chill by yourself practicing your wrinkle wrist.

Probably 1 point. Dudes would try to D you up so tight. Only chance I got is if my defender is guarding me so tight he bites on a pump fake and fouls me.

You talking about taking wide open 3's why not wide open dunks or layups? Is the garbage you're saying finally setting in yet? Do you even have the range to sink an NBA 3 all alone? Do you have the cardio to run for more than 3mins at full speed? Do you have the strength to run through the defender? Do you have a quick enough release to not get swatted? Are you tall enough for you to be able to shoot over anyone over 6"4? Are you fast enough to get open for longer than a second? Is your release high enough to shoot at the apex of your jump without a defender altering your shot? If the answer is NO to any one of these then you're NOT doing ANYTHING.
But, if you want to play your fantasy game where none of that matters and for some reason you are the only player on the floor then hey,... You'll drop 30

99% of this thread talking about wide open kick back shots from 3 after the guy passing to you got doubled and your talking about layup's and dunks. but yes i could make a fast break layup/dunk. you sitting here talking like steve novak is putting in nasty cross overs and out running dudes to get his WIDE OPEN threes in the corner

first off we are talking about nba threes here, secondly nba players close out so fast that even if you get an open shot, if you take more than a second to set up your shot it will no longer be open

but you honestly think not one single NTer could get a single point. which is what im arguing. im not saying a NTer would make a difference and i didn't say they could average 5 points a game. but to say out of the hundreds of people that think they could get a few points off open looks are stupid and not one person will make a open 3 is just ludicrous.

That same dude Novak would go to whatever gym you play in and drop 50 without a problem. You give NBA dudes 0 credit for what they're able to do. To us it a game, to them it's all business. If you want to come up with the best case situation to score fine, lets say you're on the other side of the court under the basket with everyone else on the other side and all you have to do is throw it in. Cool! Yes you'll score! That's like sayin I could score a goal in a pro soccer FIFA match if the goalie fell down on the opposite side of the goal and all the defenders for whatever reason arent trying to stop me.......Obviously no point in going back and forth any longer. You win

Its funny how most of us complain that nba dudes play such soft defense but listening to some of you guys, it seems EVERY player in the league plays defense like iman Shumpert or Tony Allen and thats far from the truth. Not every single shot in an NBA game is contested, sometimes they dont even close out.
Yes Steve Novak would wipe the floor with us, but this thread isnt aking whos better than Steve Novak so again please stick to the script.
You guys are underestimating the many different nba scenarios that lead to points, plenty of great looks come in transition or turnovers as well so the defense isnt always on your hip like you make it seem.
And that soccer analogy just shows how flawed your logic is, were talking bout clean looks which happen quite often in the flow of the game. How many times during a soccer game does the goalie fall down and the goal is unattended ridiculous.

In the NBA Novak looks like he sucks. I real life against normal people Novak would look like KD. What I'm saying is that if you think Novak looks like he sucks, but compared to him you're complete trash then once you step on the NBA court you're gonna look like a paraplegic and do nothing. Is that so hard to grasp?
You guys win, y'all would average 10 points a game because of the open looks you'd get. Never mind all the players that don't make it to the NBA after a life time of work. Never mind the players in the NBA that get 0 playing time, never mind the players that have 10 years of nba experience and only average 7-8 points a game. You would get open looks an drop buckets.
I bring up different situations because you guys are bringing up all these "well if this happened" situations that ultimately leave you untouched for however long you need. Why not make it even easier and just have nobody near you and have you right in front of the basket as well?

The question is hypothetical.. I don't think this is meant to be taken seriously.
We know guys sitting at the end of the bench waving their towel around like Patty Mills would drop like 70 at the local gym.. but that isn't the question.
And obviously none of us would ever even make it in the NBA let alone the D-League..and not even make it in a Division 3 college team.

These type of threads should be banned at this point. It's starting to piss me off to see ppl overrate themselves and underrate how quickly nba players can cover ground.

maybe i missed it, but who said they'd average 10 points a game? and why exactly is it so outlandish for a regular human being to hit an open 3 pointer, or is that something only d1 athletes and pros can do?
saying "i can hit 1 open 3" doesn't mean claiming to be able to score 6-8 PER GAME.

I think some of you guys are ignoring some elements of the hypo that would have to happen. The real answer if, for some reason we were given a chance to get minutes on the court is that we'd score zero points, because coach would immediately see how buns you are and pull you after 30 seconds.
I think the proper hypo is this: If we were guaranteed to get starter/6th man minutes for a decent stretch of games and must at least go through the motions on D (meaning you can't just not get back on D at all and camp out under their basketball the whole game), how many could points you put up? This is the only way the hypo works--with any other parameters, we'd immediately be benched and never see the court again
We talk about how even superstars and role players struggle to score points in many games, but I don't think that applies because in our hypo, we can play YOLO ball and chuck threes from where ever, throw up horrible, contested shots--I think I can put up like 5 PPG if I were able to play a good amount of minutes each game with no regard for team play and no fear of being benched

Dude acting like its impossible for a regular dude to have a better jumper than a NBA player...its a guy i hoop with that just simply doesnt miss, got the purest shot ive ever seen...if you gave him a wide open 3 guarantee he knocking it downYou guys win, y'all would average 10 points a game because of the open looks you'd get.

Repped. Same principle goes for if you manage to get the ball ahead of everyone on a fast break. If you can't get to the hoop in one or two dribbles you're no longer open either.
