This is a tough question because there are so many bad shooters on this team. I honestly don't know who to vote for. To be fair, I'll leave out the big guys (Curry, James and Rose) and just list the guys that should be able to shoot from 15-20 feet. By worst, I don't mean shooting pct as much as who do you have the least faith in hitting a shot. Remember when Oakley, before he earned some trust, would shoot a jumper and the entire crowd would start moaning before he even let it fly? That's what I'm talking about.
David Lee
Renaldo Balkman
Mardy Collins
Quentin Richardson
Jared Jeffries
Fred Jones

Jefferies actually seems better on jumpshots than he is at shooting anything from the paint in. To me its probably Mardy or Balk. At least Balk can score in other ways so I went with Mardy.

Actually the guy that makes me groan most when he takes a 20 footer is Zach, but that's for a different reason.

Good point.

I voted for Balkman because most times he shoots a total brick.

Definitely Balkman. Even though Richardson is terrible, everytime he shoots I still have that hope, that slight thought, that it might go in. When Balkman is about to shoot, I wonder why the rest of the team isn't getting back on defense faster

Mardy is by far the worst. He's leading the league in Airballs with Q being a close second. He launched an off target smart bomb against the Warriors. His shot was so bad it was one of those that hit and then kept going penetrating deep with force to the wrong destination.

I actually have more faith in Jeffries to hit a jumpshot from 15-20ft than I do those other 3 guys. How sad is that?

BALKMAN can't shoot at all, if he could he would be a slasher beast.
JAMES DOLAN on Isiah : He's a good friend of mine and of the organization and I will continue to solicit his views. He will always have strong ties to me and the team.

I went in this order based only on how I feel when they shoot a jumper

1.) Balkman-Never seen him make a jumper
2.) Mardy-
3.) Jeffries
4.) Lee
5.) Richardson
6.) Jones
I just hope that people will like me

I think Balkmans shot looks fine and I want him to make it. If he misses I'm hoping he can hit it next time.

When Q shoots I'm like "brick". I'm shocked if it goes down.

When David Shoots I usually let out a sigh and shake my head when he misses.

Collins jumpshot calls for a "geezus!" or a "yikes!" it still has that hitch. Just pathetic.

Jared calls for a "No! What the **** are you thinking!" he is the worst. He's actually changed the mechanics of his shot a little. Still worse than shandon.

Nate is the only player that you can say "swish baby, all day". Damn the Knicks suck.

Easily Balkman.

Agreed.
lol @ being BANNED by Martin since 11/07/10 (for asking if Mr. Earl had a point). Really, Martin? C'mon. This is the internet. I've seen much worse on this site. By Earl himself. Drop the hypocrisy.

i have to go with fishlips, but Balkman is easily a toss up... every time i see Jefferies shoot i'm praying he'll at least hit the side of the rim so we can get a fresh shotclock & hope for a rebound.
After 7 years & 40K+ posts, banned by martin for calling Nalod a 'moron'. Awesome.
