It is the most desired and lacking skill in the NBA - the ability to shoot from the perimeter. One of the worst-shooting teams is the New Jersey Nets, who shot 37 percent in the NBA Finals against San Antonio.

The Nets took a player many labeled the best shooter in the draft in 6-foot-7 Kyle Korver of Creighton with the 51st pick in the second round and then traded his rights to the 76ers for an undisclosed amount of cash.

Nets general manager Rod Thorn issued a statement in response to questions about Korver and why a team that can't shoot would trade the best shooter in the draft to an Atlantic Division rival.

"He's a good player who can really shoot the ball, and we really didn't have any spots on our team and Philly made a good [move]," Thorn said.

Granted, Korver shot 48 percent from three-point range as a senior and 45.3 percent for his career, but doing it against Missouri Valley Conference teams and duplicating that in the NBA are two different things. Still, it's curious that the Nets didn't have room for a proven college shooter.
