Why is Korver an All-Star?

Richely you do realize that the only years the 3 point line has been shortened was from 1995 to 1997 right? Every other year since 1980 has been exactly the same.

And put Bird in the same role as Korver and see if he couldn't match or better his percentage. Bird was the focus of ENTIRE defenses. By the same standards you could say that decoys like Robert Horry, Steve Kerr and Graig Hodges were better shooters than Bird which is ridiculous!

Why do people wanna bring up guys like Kerr and Hodves to compare to Korver when Korver shoots way more 3s than them? He's pretty clearly far superior to them. Korver is easily the best 3 pt specialist ever and i don't think you can argue against that.

Kerr and Hodges also didn't play in the soft zone/3 pointer happy league like Korver does!

I understand his value in TODAY'S NBA but let's not over do it

Well, we don't really know Korver's clutchness though. Kerr has been clutch on the biggest stage of all and has like 4 or 5 rings (yes, he was on better teams, but regardless we know he is clutch and we don't know if Korver is or not).

Anthony Morrow > Korver

Korver's shooting %'s will take a humungous dip in the playoffs when defense actually focuses on stopping him.

He'll go from shooting 50% from 3 to like 32%.... it's gonna be very sad

Well, it didn't happen last year.

The hawks had Anthony Morrow and he made no impact on this team.

The Bucks are on pace to improve by 31 wins, from the worst team in the league, to playoff team 2.5 games behind HCA. The Hawks deserve a ton of respect, and 2-3 all stars is understandable. But 4 for them and zero for MIL is ridiculous imo. Especially when ATL is the prime example of elite team basketball, as opposed to a team that wins by overwhelming talent.

Its an easier jump from bad to mediocre than from mediocre to elite.

Kover is averaging 4 rebounds and 2 assists a game it seems people are overrating shooting and making him look like a better player then he is.

How can you overate 50/50/90?

That is just shooting there is more to being a good player then shooting like rebounding,assists and defense.
