Basically, the title?

Who is the best in terms of Midrange Shooting, Scoring, and Effectiveness?

Is it MJ who uses Midrange as his weapon in Clutch Situations?

Or maybe his carbon copy Kobe?

Or maybe we are overlooking other great players like Dirk, Timmy.

Or maybe 3pt shooters like Steph,Ray, and Klay should be in consideration too?

Or maybe Not All time players but very good players who excel in midrange like Derozan, Hamilton, or Livingston?

Who are your top 3?

Yeah I’ll give it to Dirk just based on how purely his game was built around the midrange. MJ and Kobe are up there with him but they had a lot more to their game as far as scoring in the paint and around the rim. Dirk literally hard carried his team to a ring by spamming 20 foot fadeaways and not doing too much else.
