    Yeah, but maybe three players in the modern NBA can do that. Give Reggie Miller, Larry Bird and Dale Ellis (or whoever) a few seasons and they might be efficient from that range too.

    Career 3pt Shooting

    Reggie Miller: 39.5%
    Dale Ellis: 40.3%
    Glen Rice: 40.0%
    Mark Price: 40.2%
    Jeff Hornacek: 40.3%
    Dell Curry: 40.2%
    Dennis Scott: 39.7%

    Those are just a few guys that come to mind.

    and that was without taking 1000's of 3's a day like players today practice. They didn't have offenses that were built to get them wide open 3's.

    It's hilarious how teams/players back then were hesitant to shoot lots of three pointers.

    The modern NBA is way smarter/tougher/more competitive.

    The 90's had its faults for sure but Give me that physical archaic bball over this joke of a league any day. The nba sold out and got rid of defense to cater to the casual fan and now it's just manufacturerd garbage in general. You must be a casual if you actually love the way the nba is now. It's a joke dude.
    He would only say the era were lebron is at, thats the best, most talented and toughest era ever. He will say the modern era is the best until lebron retires, then by 2027, he will say the current era is garbage. Lol
