can't tell if people are being serious or not, so i'll leave this here
If average joes can't even score a point against the arguably slowest player in the NBA playing half-assed, what chance in hell do you have against a guard or small forward? Even if you were to be left wide open, I think some of y'all underestimating how quickly these dudes close out.

they werent even average joes...one dude was on syracuse squad last year..and anyone who plays ball knows, only the 'real' ballers get scholarships...even fewer get d1 scholarships...
no way any of us score in the NBA....unless somebody up here was moonlighting as a NTer but is really a d1 caliber player...but i doubt thats the case...
dudes in here wouldnt even score in a mountain west game..i guarantee it...
anybody who played high school ball can tell you that the jump from high school ball to mid major college ball is HUGE in terms of speed, athleticism, length, skills...
the jump from the mountain west to the ACC being even greater...now go up allll the levels until you reach the NBA....the last man on the worst squad on an NBA roster will hit yall local courts and look like jordan..splashing/dunking everywhere...and thats a dude that gets 0 burn..

Im saying man. Its good to be confident in your abilities but scoring in an nba game is not as easy as you think. Look at austin rivers who was a star at duke and went top 10 in the draft. In the nba hes barely making layups.
If you ever go to an nba game, at half time they let a contestant shoot open shots from all over the floor for money and some people brick these shots just from the pressure of thousands of people watching. You think its gonna be easier with the best basketball players in the world guarding you?

^^^ my point exactly. NBA role players drop 5-8 points avg their career. What in the world makes you think an average person could do that even for 1 game? The these dudes wouldn't drop 2 points in an and1 mix tape game let alone the NBA lol

here's my logic.
i went to iowa state from 03-07. i played against guys on the team all the time. in the 4 years and many players 2 made it to the NBA. getting buckets on them in a pick up setting wasn't that difficult. i can catch and shoot from anywhere. so if four transition opportunities presented themselves and i played with a great passer, i could knock down that 18 footer. in the halfcourt i'd have problems.
also, my senior year was KD's freshman year. we had a walk on named Chris and he was the designated KD stopper. he holds KD to 17 points on 6-16 shooting (KD just had an off night, but on paper it looked like he locked up.) fast forward to a month later and Chris is picking me up full court and i'm giving him buckets. sure there isn't nearly as much motivation as guarding the 5-7 kid. but still.
i could make the short corner jumper in transition.

I'm 6'5, 230 Lbs.
Played Varsity basketball and football at my high school in the Bay area.
Played intramurals all 4 years of college, pick up games 3-4 times a week.
Still currently play 2-3 times a week.
Now I'm 29, no where near as athletic at 21. But I honestly think in the right situation I could get a couple a bucket or 2, my mid-range J is probably the best part of my game now.

Average 5ppg???? In that case, you should go hire an agent, because you have a million $$ career waiting for you.
