    That's absurd to leave Reggie Miller off that list. He's only nailed the most 3 pointers ever, many which have won games for the Pacers. True, I haven't seen all of those guys play before, but that guy's on some serious crack.

    Isn't that what Reggie does the best? IMO MJ didn't do as good a job in this department as Reggie has done. :p

    All that said, why is Air Bullard left off the list? :mad:

    ;)

    What about him? What about the ability to hit the three pointer while falling out of bounds? Huh? What about that?
    At least an honorable mention?
    Man, you run up into the stands and punch ONE fan... and suddenly you get no respect. Everybody forgets anything else you did.
    Honey, the world gone wrong.

    What about Hakeem.... that 3 in the 95 finals has got to earn him something in that list! :D

    That modern list is really, really bad. I happen to think Kobe is a better player than most other players on this board, but he is not a "great shooter". This guy seems to mix up being a scorer or good all around player with being a "shooter". Kobe, McGrady or Wallace are not 1/10th the shooters that Dell Curry, Terry Porter or Steve Kerr are (all not on that list). These were simply good all-around player who became great all around players by learning to shoot adequately, not becoming "great shooters". To be blunt, this guy is an idiot.

    Not saying he's at the top of this list or anything, and I hate the Jazz, but wasn't Hornacek money when it mattered?

    Hornacek should be there, and you'd like to think that a career shooting percentage of 51% and several straight years of 25+ ppg would get Chris Mullin a mention, too.
