Michael Porter Jr. said: Confident "Shooting" world, aiming at the throne of the scoring king

On September 2, Nets forward Michael Porter Jr. threw a "confidence bomb" in the basketball world. He was full of confidence in his shooting ability and bluntly stated that in the league, only Curry was better than himself in the shooting, and many other shooting experts were at the same level as him.

In Twitch live broadcast, Porter Jr. did not hide his confidence: "Curry is the only elite shooter I have identified, and his shooting is better than me. Like Clay and Durant, we are at the same level. If he was in the training hall with Duncan Robinson, he might be able to shoot similarly to me. The same is true for Trae Young and Lillard, but Curry is the only one who is obviously better than me." These remarks undoubtedly show Porter Jr.'s high recognition of his shooting ability.

Potter Jr. is not blindly confident. His performance in the regular season last season is remarkable. He averaged 18.2 points per game, 7.0 rebounds and 2.1 assists, shooting 50.4% from the field and 39.5% from three-pointers. Such data really demonstrates his strength in scoring and shooting, and provides some confidence for his remarks.

It is worth mentioning that Nets executives had high expectations for Porter Jr., saying that he may be close to becoming the league's scoring champion next season. This not only affirms Porter Jr.'s ability, but also further ignites fans' expectations for his performance in the new season.

Porter Jr. compares himself with a group of top scorers in the league, which may cause a lot of controversy. After all, Clay, Durant, Trae Young, Lillard and others are all stars with outstanding achievements in shooting and have shown unparalleled shooting ability in different game scenarios. But Porter Jr. dares to express himself, and this confidence is valuable.

In the new season, can Porter Jr. go further in scoring as he said, approaching the throne of the scoring champion and becoming a dazzling scorer in the league? What kind of sparks will he and top scorers such as Curry collide on the field? In any case, Porter Jr.'s confidence statement has added a lot of heat to the topic of basketball in the new season. Let's wait and see if he can prove his strength in the "shooting" world on the field with practical actions.
