籃網球星Kevin Durant在推特上與THE ACTION NETWORK的主編Matt Moore就中距離投籃問題展開了激烈辯論。
Matt先是說道:「當你有50%以上兩分球命中率的時候多出手兩分是沒問題的。但是當這個數字下降,它就會起反作用。 」
If you are shooting 50 percent on 2’s, even with the eFG drain, then OK, fine. Getting 1.0 points per possession is objectively good.

When you dip is when it starts to be counterproductive.
Durant回擊道:「有時候空位出手的機會來了,難道也要放棄中投去投三分嗎? 」
隨後Matt回應道: 「嘿,Kevin!手術恢復得怎樣!你覺得當進攻時間還剩2秒的時候也不該出手遠投嗎?當然,你是Durant,你可以無死角投籃! 」
Sometimes it’s just the open shot. Why pass up an wide open look to shoot a semi contested shot?

Durant說道: 「別針對我,我見過有球員放棄空位中距離去投三分或是強行突破的。」
為證實自己的觀點,Matt給KD發送了一份數據分析折線圖。
So there’s this data point, and this isn’t some complicated metric, but it shows how players have shot mid-range over time. Even when they took more mid-range shots, they shot basically the same percentage.https://t.co/NLuWf5aUJC

It just hasn’t really changed.
KD回應道: 「當我們討論打球時,誰他X的會拿折線圖出來分析?」
Who the fuck wants to look at graphs while having a hoop convo?
