Surprising Sports Stuff

This man lead the NBA in effective field goal percentage in 1988-89, at 60% shooting, had two other seasons in the top 10, and finished 75th all-time.

I just discovered this. I feel like efficient scoring isn't included in his reputation at all.

They didn't really worry about that stuff then. He didn't take many shots. Scored almost exclusively on dunks and put backs

...

Took like 3 shots a game. All on putbacks.

See, that part isn't surprising.

looks like you just discovered the English language too

Seven a game the year he lead the league.

Who fucking cares? Points are points.

Offensive rebounds are a lost art and a lot of people just slop the put back up anyway.

Rodman would murder in the modern league. 20+ rebounds a game easily.

>Points are points
Yeah but do you want someone who can hit 4 of 7 a night or 15 of 30?

15 of 30 no question. To shoot 50% on 30 shots per game, factoring in a couple are 3 pointers and a few free throws you're looking at a guy averaging 35+ ppg on 50% shooting, you'd be an idiot to not take that

The guy gave the game a different aspect just like Bill Laimbeer.

He's also Kim jongs butt buddy

Rodman was a freak. Mulatto twinks like Curry could not play in the Dennis Rodman era.

Supposedly he fucked that up pretty good a few years ago when he last went to NK and made a complete fool of himself like the alcoholic he is.

See the documentary "Dennis Rodman's Big Bang in Pyongyang".

drayboon wouldn't last 5 seconds against rodman, fake toughness

rodman would eat him for breakfast

Robyn Regehr is actually brazilian.
I have no idea who the fuck he is either, but he was born in this shithole.

he has a high percentage because he took high percentage shots, not because he was some shooting god. that's what they're saying you moron

>He lost his mother, his younger sister and his fiancée in a car accident in July 2003. Exactly one year later, his father died of a heart attack.

sounds like a porno

where the fuck are wilt and bill ruselel?

he did his best to distract from his awesome ability.
And Jordan loved that, cuz Jordan is a pig.

Rodman marrying himself was probably the lowlight of pre-Iverson NBA.

>The Founder of the Chicago Bears, George Halas, Once trained a dog to run onto the field during games in order to cause a stoppage when his team didn't have any time outs remaining.

damn
poor guy

In this seasons Champions League, Messi had a 50% chance conversion in the group stage. To put that into perspective, if you're one of your teams main goalthreats(you shoot a lot) and you get above 25% you're considered to have elite tier finishing. By comparison, Luis "best striker in the world" Suarez had 18%.

Past the groups Messi had 8%, but thats a story for a different thread lol.

This stat wasn't available until the 70s, Wilt played two seasons under it and his TR% was good but nothing special.

>Offensive rebounds are a lost art

Do you watch Tristan Thompson play?
