He's great because he can do those things. Bad to us, because we have no chance in hell at making them. Great for him. "But it inexplicably goes in more often than not." That's called skill. Most of the guys on this list miss the dumb shots they take, or hit just enough of them to encourage more. Just because Kobe can take and make shots most mortals can’t, does NOT make them bad shots.

We are talking about BEST bad shot takers. Some guys are not on the list because they just take ill-advised shots without being good at them. I think some people are missing the point here.

I like to call him the Drunken Master, because of the way he staggers into the lane and flips a spinning, no look reverse layup that somehow drops in- all while flailing his limbs around with a pained expression like he got shot or something. Unorthodox? Yes. Effective? Most definitely. Hey, what about Manu?

This article really says how good these guys are if you think about it. Anybody can take bad shots but only some can make them. Hell, you can go to any park, YMCA, rec game, and see cats that routinely can't make easy, good, or even uncontested shots, let alone circus shots.

He takes the worst shots I've ever seen and it doesn't even look like he's trying to make them most of the time. He's the only player that I have ever seen take a contested 3 with his team up 2 AND there's under 20 seconds left in the game Jamal Crawford!
