How legendary was Mullins shooting performance in this playoff game

Mullin's shooting this game, and in most games, was amazing. Missed few shots. In today's game he'd be even better and most of those long twos would be threes and he'd have scored over 50.

Magic also with a legendary performance.


Would Mullin be among the best shooters today?

Yes he would

It was incredible, though not exactly unheard of. I would be curious to see what some of Curry and Reggie's best look like. Not sure Dirk's game 1 vs OKC has ever been topped though. 48 points, 12/15 fgs, 24/24 from the line. 93.9 ts%

Incredible, but also have to consider that series played within 117 ORTG. Some of the series in the early 90's went outlier in offensive efficiencies, eye it is necessary, I think.
