How Many Shots

it all depends on which 'star' player your talking about.
someone in kobe's position should be at least taking a quarter of the shots, because there is no one else to do so.
wheras teams like the suns, spurs etc dont need their stars to take 20-30 shots a night, every night because their teams are stacked with players who can score and a team who has multiple scoring options will beat out a team with just one... however they can always go for that many shots in a given night if needed to do so

Punctuation please? I had to read that three times to understand everything you were attempting to say.

It depends on the situation that the player is in. Kobe needs to because no one else on his team is capable of it. Vince, not so much, because he has a better supporting cast. If he's hot, give him the ball, if he's not, don't (unless it's Kobe, or AI of the past).

Vince should be taking around 20 shots a game. He's got some all-stars around him he could dish it to.

i was talkin about any star player

VC around 20.
Pierce around 25.
Kobe 30 or so.

Vince Carter should be taking 17-20 shots a game b/c he has other capable scorers around him. If other guys are hot then he should be more composed w/ his offense & feed the 'hot hand'. If it's close in the 4th then that's when he needs to take over. But when a star is hot it's a different story. Give'em the damn ball a lot. If he's struggling he should make conscious attempts to get others involved instead of trying to do so much even in Kobe's case.
