Players usually always play to a certain rhythm when they are trying to score, and it's always very close to the same amount of time or less.

And he’s extremely efficient as well and doesn’t try to force bad shots. Which is why I still say in my opinion he’s the greatest shooter of all time and yes I know majority of people will say curry but he really does take a lot of bad shots and when he’s cold he’ll still chuck up 3’s and go 2/18 but Durant on the hand wouldn’t dare keep chucking up shots like that he’ll just try to get to the basket or midrange

[@xDJblaze757x]

He's not strong. Several people reported he doesn't lift weights. No knock on him, he's an offensive juggernaut, but he has no physicality in his offense. This is why I give the nod to Melo in the scoring department. Melo had the right and left, deadly one dribble pull up, but also had the nasty physicality of a solid post up 4. Melo had the nastiest post work I'd ever seen
