Big Ant asked in SportsBasketball · 1 decade ago

Out of all the great jump shooters in the history of the NBA, who was the purist and most accurate shooter?

My opinion is Pistol Pete Maravich.

    It could be Maravich. I saw him a number of times and he was often incredible.

    It's a matter of opinion. Jerry West and Oscar Robertson were great.

    Reggie Miller, Chris Mullin and Mark Price were each as good as probably anyone.

    My vote goes to West, Miller or Price, but again, it could be Pete too.

    Ray Allen. I want to say Dirk just cause im a mavs fan, but Ray Allen is just pure of a shooter. He is second all time in 3's and still going. Hes hitting 38.9 % from behind the line. He has such a great technique he has to be the best shooter not just now, but ever.

    The highest 3 pt percentage for a career is Steve Kerr who shot .454 from the field . He also hold the record for season best at .524 for a season. The best I ever seen was Reggie Miller .

    yea ray allen is a good shooter....but he is only good off the screen

    steve nash creates his own shots, so he is at the top of my list.....

    but mark price probably was the most accurate and pure with his jumper

    I've gotta say Reggie Miller in his prime.
