I like both of these ideas. I just want to see guys not be shamed for taking the mid range jumper. Not because I have a great love for the mid range, but because I have a love for drives to the hoop. Sometimes you have to take that pull up in order to get the defender to respect the drive. Percentages aside, I prefer KD's shot chart from Game 2 to James Harden's
