biggest ballhog of all time not named kobe bryant?

Question

someone who toke 50 shots to get 50 points

Answer 1

Allen Iverson, no doubt, When he was in Philly, he did literally jack up around 50 shots to get 50 points. For some games, his field goal percentage would dip into the 20% and 30% range. How do you think he led the league in scoring for a number of those years.

Answer 2

Kobe, Jordan, and Iverson are all ballhogs (along with T-Mac, Carmelo, and other players), but they are all score points, so coaches allow them to shoot up a storm. Aside from Kobe, I would say the biggest ballhog in the league today is Gilbert Arenas. Among post players, I would say Zach Randolph is the biggest ballhog. He's a black hole, for sure. The ball goes in, but it never comes out.

Answer 3

Michael Jordan......is...the Biggest "Ballhog"..ever!!!!!!

Career average 23 shots a game!!...(Kobe only averages 19 shots for his career)

In 15 years he shot the ball..24,567 times.......a record for a 15 year career!..

he shot the ball a record 49 times in ONE GAME!!!

he led the league in shot attempt's a record NINE Times!!!!

His second year he was injured for most of the season...so when he came back what did he do?????...he averaged a whopping! 28 shots a game for the rest of the season!!!!!...he scored 63pts in one game...and LOST!!!


Here's proof Mj was a "Ballhog"......

1993 with Jordan.... Scottie Pippen averaged 18ppg on 47% shooting......Horace Grant averaged 13ppg on 50% shooting!

1994 WITHOUT Jordan... Scottie Pippen averaged 22ppg on 49% shooting!...He was Taking MORE SHOT'S and shooting a BETTER percentage!!....Horace Grant averaged
15ppg on 53% shooting!..all there averages went up!..without MJ..................HOW is THAT?..you might ask...after all..
The theory was that Jordan drew so much defensive attention that his teammates got to take wide open shots and benefited from Jordan. It sounds good on paper, but wasn't true in reality. Jordan played in 1993 and retired in 1994. Nine players played on these two teams, and these 9 players, as a whole, shot a Higher!!! percentage without Jordan than they did with Jordan, even though the defenses were focusing on them. This was not a fluke. this occurred over the course of 164 games. That is enough to determine a trend.

The short answer is that players like Jordan (ballhogs) do not make those around them better. Jordan has always been more interested in scoring his points than in helping his team - he practically said so himself.....

2 easy!

Answer 4

Another KOBE HATER , dude if anyone in the nba average field goal above .500????? doesn'T matter how many times u shoot the ball , if u guarding 2 or more or the best defender on the other teams even u taken 100 times u have to shoot the ball ... i believed KOBE shot over 40% which is better average in NBA ...thats mean he got skills to shoot the ball.

Answer 7

Answer 8

World B. Free often started shooting from the parking lot before he even got into the arena!

Rick Barry was one of the best players and shooters ever! It's not ball-hog if they all go in.

Answer 9

Allen Iverson (he got the scorer mentality)

Stephon Marbury (one of the most selfish player in the whole world)

Steve Francis (was there for the show and not for the win)

Answer 10

Brent Barry's old man... what was his name, Rick? Used to play for the SF Warriors and jacked up shot after shoft after shot.
