I'd go with Miller. I also liked Chuck Person.

I forgot J.R. Smith. He loves to catch and just shoot it.

Re: Who's the best catch and shoot player?
Both JR and Chuck weren't catch and shoot. They were more stop and pop, especially JR.

Re: Who's the best catch and shoot player?
not really JR has always been more catch and shoot. The more you get him to dribble the less accurate his shot is. Its all based off that hop step, the same hop he takes into his set shot. If you ask him to pull up off the dribble without a step back the percentages drop immensely. Originally Posted by hateraid

All-time probably Reggie, although I'm surprised nobody mentioned Bird, he made a living off it.

Re: Who's the best catch and shoot player?
My picks are the same as many people here but I gotta say Melo is pretty underrated in this department

Glen was my favourite player in the league behind Jordan back in the 90's. First NBA jersey I ever bought as well. Originally Posted by catch24

Re: Who's the best catch and shoot player?
Old thread and all...But what the hey...
I am biased having watched the Bulls in 90s but Paxson, BJ, and later Steve Kerr were great at their craft.
I respect Peja's ability as well.
Reggie and Ray are obvious picks as their career 3s show but to me it's the above 4 I mentioned.
