    But to the question? Curry without a doubt.

    Ray Allen is still a great shooter, but he's past his prime. And given the fact Curry shoots from anywhere. Off the dribble, spot up, it doesn't matter.

    I think Rudy Gay was battling his eyes for most of his career and apparently fixed that this year so his shooting should be much improved.

    No? It's obvious the OP just wants us to answer the question without getting into an altercation with our or somebody elses eyes

    Ill go with Ray Allen. Every time he shoots a 3 I expect it to go in

    wide open

    nash, allen, curry

    defended

    kobe, durant, carmelo


    big difference.. little guys cant just shoot over a defender. and set shooters cant create a shot for themselves... which is a disadvantage

    wide open on a kick out.. i'l take ray allen

    defended by 2 guys and barely being able to see the net.... i'l take kobe bryant

    Considering defense hang all over him, he's the #1 option on his team, he primarily has the ball in his hands, he doesn't get in the lane much, and still shot 45% on nearly 8 attempts. Steph without question.

    Curry is already at legendary level. It wouldn't surprise him to see him cement himself as the greatest shooter ever.

    Allen is all-time great. He is merely on the same level as Dirk, Durant, Irving. Curry is just on another stratosphere.

    I'll still take Curry over those guys. He has no issues breaking his man down for a three point shot. He was the main scorer for his team last season and shot over 45% from three the whole season. He's a career 44% three point shooter.

    Stephen Curry: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lf-TF09iTP4 <-Awesome mix about how people always underrate him because of his size.

    I would take Melo or Durant over Kobe. Both are bigger and can shoot over the top.

    Melo and Kobe have a better post game than Durant though

    Yet Durant scored more points per possession in the post than either Kobe or Carmelo last year. Or maybe it was just Carmelo...I can't remember which exactly. I think Kobe might've actually been a little higher, but I know Durant was at or very near the top among perimeter players in that regard.

    Point being, Durant's postgame is a lot better than people either realize or want to give him credit for.

    You think Durant is a better post scorer than Melo and Kobe?
