I don't get the entertainment concern, I get way more into it when a guy catches fire with his jumpers than lay-ups and free throws.

I'd love to watch a guy of this caliber play. 80% from anywhere basically? Just incredible

Now for part 2.
After 15 years in the league, the player retires. Since he was such a great shooter and could score from anywhere, he won 8 NBA titles being the focal point of the team.
He has career averages of 48 points (.850 FG%), 0.5 rebounds, 1 assists, 0 steals, 0 blocks, 2 turnovers 3 fouls.
Accolades include:
-8x NBA Champion
-5x NBA Finals MVP
-3x NBA MVP
-12x All-Star
-10x All-NBA First Team
-15x NBA Scoring Champion
So the question: is said player better than Jordan? All he can do is score from jump shots, but the scoring translates into championships.
It's a tad ridiculous to believe anyone who can manage to be on the court long enough to get 48 points could not get more than .5rpg 0spg and 0bpg, but the whole situation is pretty ridiculous. Anyways, if the guy is able to win you 8 titles and get 5 finals MVPs, I highly doubt he would just get 3MVPs, I would think he could get a 5-6 of them. Also how in the guy only All-NBA 10 times? Seems like the GOAT would make it every year, except maybe his last year if he suddenly had a major decline (I doubt that could happen to a GOAT candidate) or some year where he suffered a major injury. Someone who averages 40ppg is All-NBA every year, because there are not 2 guards, or 2 forwards in any given year in history that would top an average 48ppg player on 85% shooting.

So, we're talking about Super-Korver?
You can market that if you give him Stacey King to yell "HOT SAUCE" every game.

It would be flashy making 80% from 3. Are you kidding me? It would LBJ vs Bucks or T-Mac vs Spurs all over again.
