A good shot percentage is different for each position.

Point Guard: The average point guard shoots 40%. A point guard that shoots a good percentage will be around 43%. An excellent shooting percentage would be around 45% and better. Obviously, guards like Tony Parker who shoot primarily layups and floaters will have higher shot percentages than those who prefer to shoot long range shots.

Shooting Guard: The average shooting guard shoots 41%. A shooting guard that shoots a good percentage will be around 44%. An excellent shooting percentage would be around 46% and better. If a shooting guard is mainly an alley-oop catcher, they will have a higher shot percentage than Kevin Martin, who draws fouls and shoots the ball more often.

Small Forward: The average small forward shoots 40%. A small forward that shoots a good percentage will be around 43%. An excellent shooting percentage would be around 45% and better. Small forwards come in many different shapes and sizes, so percentages will vary.

Power Forward: The average power forward shoots 42%. A power forward that shoots a good percentage will be around 46%. An excellent percentage would be around 50%. Power forwards are almost always near the basket and collect many rebounds, thus are able to get easy scoring opportunities.

Center: The average center shoots around 44%. A center that shoots a good percentage will be around 47%. An excellent percentage would be around 50% and higher. Centers, like power forwards, are near the basket a lot.

You score by throwing the ball in the hoop. depending on where you are when you shoot the ball. at the circled line is a three point. the straight line before the three point line is the foul shot line, which is one point, but only one point when the umpire stops the game and has the person that got fouled stand on the line to shoot. inside the circled line is two points.

The system for scoring in Basketball is that each shot that is within the 3 point line is worth 2 points, and anything beyond the 3 point line is worth 3 points. Shots that are made from the foul line are worth 1 point.

Preferably, like 100-0. But if your reffering to most popular scores, most goalies in the NHL have GAA's of between 2 and 3. So I'd say the most likely score would probably be 3-2. But this varies greatly from league to league and age division. Just look up recent games in the specificalities that you want to know.

in my opinion I think the number 12, 18, 20, 22, 8, and 30 are pretty cool numbers.
