Detroit Pistons center Andrew Drummond will always be compared to the NBA's other big men with long buckets in their arsenal, so you can't fault the guy for trying to show that he too can hit shots well outside his normal range.

Bleacher Report just exposed Drummond's lack of rim depth awareness yet again with this clip from Friday night's contest against the Chicago Bulls.

At first glance, the setup was all there for Drummond to make a quick highlight reel snippet out of his shot attempt. Robin Lopez giving him room to work, shot clock winding down, awareness of where the three-point line is… all resulting into a way off-target clunker doinking off the top of the backboard.

Wouldn't it have been safer and easier for him to back down Lopez in the post? Drummond had the advantage on Lopez, to begin with, but instead opted for a flashier finish that ended up being a horrible step-back attempt that nobody expects him to make.

As a dismal 15.2-percent career three-point shooter, Drummond would be better off ditching the long distance range altogether. He's attempting a three-ball once every two games on average this season as opposed to virtually never venturing out beyond the arc in his first six seasons in the league.

The 25-year-old still has a lot of mileage left in his NBA career to improve his shooting range. But with moments like this, perhaps it would be best for him to stay in the post and not succumb to the pressure of having to adapt into the modern-day NBA big man with range akin to his peers.
