He can even be argued over Curry. He was that good.

curry
klay
kd

HM bird.
comparing shooters today to shooters even 20 years ago is a joke. Reggie and Ray just hit too many 3s to keep them off the list.

The golden 50%/40%/90% gives me the top shooters as well. That kind of skill and discipline (or being close to it) marks the best.

I’d love to hear that argument…

No disrespect to Nash, who I am a big fan of, and who was an amazing shooter…

…but no, he can’t be argued over Curry, and it’s not close.

Curry
Allen
Miller
Bird

Today it is easier to shoot because of spacing and easier to get off better shots because defenders aren’t grabbing and holding

Joe Harris? Ever?? What. The last time I saw him play he couldn't hit a shot in the playoffs even if he was wide open. He doesn't deserve that spot
