Is players like Josh & JR Smith, Jennings, who shoot mid range shots that make you 
Josh Smith should get a tech every time he shoots outside the paint.

LMA tryna bring it back, Bosh might be the best mid range shooter in the league.
Curry shoots it well too but he shoots it well from anywhere on the court.

very few 4s can hit a midrange j. either they want to extend their range to the 3 line or cant score except inside.
david west is pretty solid
ibaka is improving
mo speights is money

Blake is starting to get pretty consistent with his 15-17 foot jumpers.

Demarcus really came into his own in the midrange during the least 6 weeks of the season.

Nah man this dude who balled with me often had a phase where he would only shoot contested shots and fall to the floor after and yell out KOBE SHOT! His favourite player was and is Kobe and he did that for a solid two years.
Mid range shot discussion: Rip Hamilton and Steve Nash, well Steve Nash for every shot period.

Blake takes the slowest, most deliberate jump shot I've ever seen.
He's like a pitcher at the mound.
But yea he's been knocking it down, like Game 2 where he hit pretty much everything.

i wish westbrook mastered the mid range shot instead of shooting 3's off of the dribble with his legs kicked out

I think LMA shot the most midrange shots in the NBA. He should learn how to shoot 3s though. Not to say he needs to take tons of them but similar to Ibaka (38.3% from 3 this season again on limited volume), it's a nice weapon for end of quarter/clock situations and spaces the paint out. Shotcharts from the 13/14 regular season. I included Bosh and Ibaka as well because they are also prolific at it, not just as big men, but period.
Here's Ibaka
Bosh
Aldridge who took 799 such shots, more than some entire teams

:x @ Bosh percentages from mid range, dude is filthy.
He need to be taking as many shots as possible over there in that right corner.
LMA definitely should add a 3 pointer to his game, Ibaka is doing that at 24 so imagine where it will be when he's 27. I bet Bosh wish he added it earlier too.!
Oh it's coming, Brow have it all.

Unless you're shooting 60% from mid range, start shooting 3s. That's what the numbers say at least

Shooting 60% percent from mid range is beyond unrealistic.
Matter of fact, shooting 60% from anywhere besides free throws isn't realistic.
