Ant led the league in missed shots last year



He’s off in the lead so far this year with 19. KAT is in 2nd with 17. I hope he starts to become more of a passer and selects better shots this year.

Amen.

    We’re off to the races with hating everything this team does

    And Kobe Bryant has the most missed shots in NBA history with 14,481 so not really a useful stat!

    I find this interesting in a non hating way. I actually had no idea it was true.

    The 5 highest scorers per game in the league played in 66, 66, 58, 68, and 63 games. No one that scored more points per game than Ant played in more games.

    It’s an intriguing/interesting stat, but empty when his shooting splits were solid. It’d obviously be very alarming if he had the most missed shots AND terrible efficiency, but that wasn’t the case.

    Interesting but there’s a reason people use shooting metrics to judge talent other than total missed shots

    4th in makes, 2nd in attempts. Luka was 3rd and 3rd. Tatum was 2nd and 1st. Basically it’s super normal to miss a shit-ton of shots when you play a lot and are the number 1 option.

    Sure it’d be nice if the makes ranking was higher than the attempts ranking, but it’s pretty damn close, and a great sign of things to come that he was right there with Tatum and Luka – especially considering he was 21 years old.

  8. I thought it would be a few years before people started hating on Ant the way they do with KAT, but looks like we’re already there!

    Wonder if this gets posted if he would have had a 30 point high efficiency game yesterday.

  10. Everyone will be judged fairly objectively somewhere, might as well be here.

    Most misses in a year is always a top 5 scorer. Michael Jordan owned this stat multiple years. Ant←Jordan confirmed.
