Was watching the Cavs game, and my wife asked me if there had ever been a short white guy who was a bad shooter. My initial thought was, "of course. There has to be." But I can't think of a single one. Rubio? He's Spanish though. I can't think of a single white guard ever who was a poor shooter. Anyone? |

I wanted to say Jason Williams but apparently he shot .327 from deep for his career. Respectable. .398 regular fg% though |

Very rarely shoots from the outside in any of his highlights. Drives to the hoop in almost every one. Also had a pretty ugly form in the few jumpers Ive seen him take and has an atrocious career FG%. Just putting two and two together here. I'm sure JORR will be along shortly to explain how he was actually a better shooter than Steph Curry. |

Scott Skiles was not a great shooter. |

Hurley was kind of odd in that he was crushed by a drunk going 70mph after his rookie year. Amazing he continued on. |
