JJ is about to tear up when Stephen A was really appreciating the man's work. Your work doesn't get unnoticed, fellas! Grateful to what these people have done for the game. We have had great moments over the years for sure. Lots of driveway and rec league memories by kids, from these shooters.

[ctkimba]

I respect your 5th pick stephen a. Not much people show korver love he's a pure

Got to meet Ray Allen once while coaching at a Boston College basketball camp. He’s as down to earth as they come. As a young player in college, I wanted to know what the secret to success was. He told me, “you get what you put in. I wasn’t born a great shooter, I was born a hard worker.” He credited his family for that as well. It was a pretty humbling experience for me. I’ll forever be a fan of his.

Please tell me I’m not the only one who absolutely cringed and then died laughing when Molly chimed in and yelled “Jesus Shuttlesworth“ 💀😂

[tdot]

Stephen list is actually good. Best list he's made yet

[rohanchaurasia]

Molly, we get it. Ray allen is your fav player. You dont have to scream it everytime the name comes up.

It’s a shame Drazen Petrović careers was cut short. I think he was the first guy that consistently hit well over 40%. Seeing him play made it seem possible that a guy like Curry could one day exist.

[iCraftyy]

Klay is such an underrated player he never shot under 40% in a season 🤯

[DecAllTimeAlways]

JJ Redick is a humble man to not consider himself top 10. He really isn't to be frank but I enjoy how humble and sincere he is.

Steve Nash is the player with the most 50-40-90 shooting seasons ever, dude was a sniper and would kill in todays game of high volume 3s.

Craig Anthony Hodges (born June 27, 1960) is an American retired professional basketball player and former head coach of the Westchester Knicks of the NBA Development League. He played in the NBA for 10 seasons and led the league in 3-point shooting percentage three times.

[coolhandluke]

How is Larry Bird not on this list?! He hit so many incredible Clutch shots and Won three 3 Point Contests in a row! Which will probably never happen again or be beaten! I think he’s top 5 easily! He was shooting behind the basket, calling his shots coming down the court, hitting turn around fadeaway’s from 3…c, mon!

[erikpuka]

Kyle Korver is an underrated 3pt shooter. Nobody scared me more than that man when rooting against him. When he got a fairly open catch and shoot look - he would make it it seemed like always. Had a higher percentage than Klay Thompson as well with a lot of numbers from a tougher era when it was harder to play offense, the percentage around the league was lower all around, had way less space than Klay cause he played with worse teams and also his stats include numbers from like I said an older era when it was harder and also from an era when he was near 40 and regressed and he still has a higher percentage. Klay was sure the beter player but as far as shooting that thing - Kyle was a sniper. He was born to shoot 3s. He could't do much else in the game of basketball except that but he could do that better than anybody I have ever seen not named Steph.
Btw he made 54% of his threes in 2010. Thats insanity.

[ChrisBasdeo]

Wow I'm actually surprised Stephen A showed some love to Kyle Korver finally some respect, he wasn't averaging 20ppg or the greatest player but Korver could shoot had one of the fastest release and amazing shooting form

[levelwithz]

*As a Duke fan, Im happy to see how well Redicks career played out because in his first couple years in the league it looked like he might not last long but he did his thing. And as despised as he was at Duke this man has become a Class Act.*

*As well as one of the Best commentators out there.*
*Great Podcast too btw.*

[SunsJoel]

Oh how quickly people forget about Steve Nash. A four-time member of the 50 40 90 club, and would have had a fifth time if he would have shot .1% higher free throw percentage in 06-07. He has nine seasons of shooting over 40% from the 3-point line and his career average 3-point percentage is 42.8% . He just didn't shoot them as frequently because he was a pure point guard but do not mistake that for his undeniable shooting prowess. He is undoubtedly in my opinion a top five shooter of all time.

[Exhibit_C_me]

The awkward silence from Molly when Stephen A. brought up Jalen 😂.

[AM-myjk]

I watched JJ warm up in Portland before a game January 2018. This man is beyond dedicated to his craft his career is second to none. Enjoy your retirement!

1. Steph Curry
2. Klay Thompson
3. Ray Allen
4. Reggie Miller
5. Steve Nash

Steve Nash has more 50-40-90 seasons then anyone and he was way more of a high volume shooter/scorer then Kyle Korver. Think Nash nearly averaged 50-40-90 shooting percentages for his entire career which is insane.

[motorcycleartist]

Dale Ellis was hitting 3s in the 80s like players today. Sad ppl forget about him..first player to hit 1000 triples
