Observation/Question RE: Anthony Parker's 3PT%

[Dyabolikal]

Anthony Parker's career 3PT% now stands at .442 with 214 career 3PT FGs.

As far as I understand, 250 career 3PT FGs are required to earn a spot in the record books for 3PT% (as was the case earlier this season when Jason Kapono became the number 1 most accurate 3PT shooter of all time).

Does this mean that if Anthony Parker remains close to his currect percentage and hits another 36 three pointers that he could be in the top 10 all time by the end of the season?

If he kept his currect percentage he'd be number 3 ALL TIME behind Kapono and Steve Kerr

Sorry if this is all rather obvious, but I hadn't seen any mention of this yet.

parker is dead on when he is open.

that would be great having the two of the top three pointers in the history percentage wise.

Am I the only one who thinks Parker is NOT money from the elbow at all and misses a whole lotta shats from there. I believe he is absolute money from the baseline.

Question: am I crazy/retarted?

You are quite right..but he has improved tremendously this year. The clutch shot against the Wiz is a good example.

I heard Chuck mention AP is an 80% ft shooter last night. Hard to believe, it seems like he always misses one or both of his shots, (in the few times he gets to the line)
