Rank as mid-range shooters: Glenn Robinson, Allan Houston, Sam Cassell
Three of the best mid-range shooters from the Deadball Era (late '90s & early '00s).

Re: Rank as mid-range shooters: Glenn Robinson, Allan Houston, Sam Cassell
I'm going:
1. Sam
2. Big Dog
3. Houston
I'm guessing most people will have Houston first, but I feel like he wasn't the same shooter off the dribble and was more of a catch and shoot guy. Big Dog was a scorer and could get his shot multiple ways. And Sam from what I remember was a fairly deadly pull up shooter.

Cassell was always incredibly underrated.

Houston's 2000 season in the 16-<3 was 54% on decent volume so I guess I'd go with him. His profile is pretty similar to big dog's otherwise. Cassell might have been as good as the others but I'd put him a bit lower just due to lower volume shooting in general.

Very close.
Houston was a better catch and shooter than Robinson but Big Dog was a better isolation shooter.
I would say :
1. Houston = Robinson
3. Cassell

Sam Cassell is excellent coach, I understood everything he said the moment he said it.
