The
Basketbawful History Committee would like to officially recognize
Dominique Wilkins, the first NBA player to miss 1,000 shots in a season (1,038 to be exact, in
1984-85).
You think he's going to shoot it?Dominque reached this dubious milestone again -
twice!! - in
1985-86 (1,011 misses) and
1987-88 (1,048 misses), paving the way for a entire generation of selfish shotmongers and bricklayers, such as
Jerry Stackhouse,
Allen Iverson,
Antoine Walker, and, of course, our favorite ballhog
Kobe Bryant. Thanks 'Nique!
