    Kevin Martin get a LARGE amount of FTs a game. Do you think he could still be a 20 pt. scorer even without his crazy ability to draw fouls?

    No, because then when he's getting fouled, instead of getting the call he's just not going to make the shot.

    Martin is one of the pure scorers in the NBA. He has deep range, a pull up game, and a very quick first step to get to the basket.
    Why wouldn't he be a top-flight scorer if the rules changed to no free throws?
    More importantly, I understand your boredom but what does this have to do with anyting?

    Um...okay then.

    While we're at it, let's talk about whether Kobe would still be an all time great if he never entered the paint his whole career.

    well free throws are part of the game.
