Stephen curry averages 9.9 Attempt per game and his 3 point % is .424

Kyle korver averages 5.2 Attempt per game and his 3 point % is .44

Do you know who has never won a three point contest? Kyle korver. Yes, Kyle korver, the guy that banks in more open three than anyone else has never won a three point contest.

Stephen curry at the 2014/2015 all star games made 27 open threes. 27.

I want to believe korver was in the three point contest that year wasn't he? Curry beat him to his own game probably

MitrikDenholm:
Give korver and curry 10 uncontested 3s. Korver will make 9/10, Curry probably less. In terms of accuracy, Korver beats just about everyone in the league. But korver needs screens and plays and what not. Curry doesn't, he creates his own shots and shoots off the dribble. That's what separates him from just about everyone else.

MitrikDenholm:
Shelf your stats man. Korver holds the league record for 3 point shooting in a season.

And are you seriously using the footlocker 3 point contest to judge who the 3 point shooter is?

Decale:
Relax, Korver only makes 50% of his open 3s (not 9/10), unless you're talking about practice; which we all know Curry made 76 consecutive uncontested 3 point shots

In terms of accuracy, Curry's career 3 point percentage >>>> Korver.

This season, Klay Thompson >>>>> Korver.

In uncontested shots, Durant >>>>> Korver. All facts straight from NBA. Undiluted...

If you have Korver and Curry on the same team and a clutch 3 pointer is needed, you'd give it to Korver, right? Or to the "best 2 point shooter" whose highlights are made up of game winning 3s?


So where's your logic on Korver being the best 3 point shooter in the league?

Just save face and rest. It's not a must to win an argument...

Decale:
Jason Kapono and Anthony Morrow have had better 3 point shooting than Curry.

They're the 2nd and 3rd best accurate shooters in the league

Decale:
Since all of us are all mad, Jason Tatum short career has proven him to be a better 3 point shooter than Curry...

MitrikDenholm:
I have learned not to be baited into debates with knuckleheads especially considering the silent majority here are all knuckleheads like you. So I will simply just disagree with everything you typed up there and focus on arguing with more worthy minds. In this thread I don't argue, I teach and it's frustrating when your students are all boneheads.

Donlittle:
The 3 point contest is as uncontested as a 3 pointer can ever be, and kyle korver was in the contest also, wasn't he? Why couldn't he make those open shots?

Reggie Miller, Ray Allen all better 3 point shooter than kyle korver.

Do you know how crazy it is to be the first option on offense and still shoot a good amount of 3s and make a good amount, and also when it counts?

Kyle korver was the fourth option on that atlanta team, of course his three points percentage will be ridiculously high. He didn't make them when it counted though

MitrikDenholm:
You are attacking twirly fvcking dumber twirly fucking dumb. He brought up stats not me.

Decale:
Coming from someone that said and I quote

"Korver is the best 3 point shooter in the league and Curry is the greatest shooter of all time"

Korver is better because he has the single season record of 3 point percentage and he shoots better uncontested shots"


I don quote am. You go dey alright last last

MitrikDenholm:
Are you really going to stick with this?

Klay has beaten curry.

Devin has beaten klay.

Kyrie has won it before.

So has Kevin love and Marco belinelli.

The 3 point shooting contest has a lot to do with luck nerves and strategy.

I'm done with this argument. Frankly I am out of patience with you lot.

Isn't the 3 point contest uncontested? I am letting you know uncontested threes don't mean anything.

if curry and kyle gets into a shootout, would you put your money on curry or kyle korver?

MitrikDenholm:
Guess who else has never won a 3 point contest? Reggie miller. Imagine the kind of simpleton that will actually stick to this argument.

Donlittle:
This has nothing to do with miller, this has everything to do with kyle korver and curry.

You are talking about uncontested threes.

If you don't know, reggie probably shot an higher amount of contested threes than kyle korver through out his career. He was first option on offense unlike kyle who was what? fourth?

MitrikDenholm:
Have you ever watched a 3 point contest little one? You're on a timer. And there's this thing known as money ball. Strategy and luck factors in. Again, imagine the kind of simpleton that will stick to this argument.

Donlittle:


how do you call someone the best uncontested 3 point shooter but he can't win the 3 point contest?

na koboko we suppose take flog this guy men.

The guy talk say na luck and nerves

But a certain James Jones don win the uncontested stuff

Donlittle:
So kyle korver doesn't have strategy when shooting uncontested three pointers in a three point contest?

Your best 3 point uncontested shooter doesn't have strategy?

Donlittle:

MitrikDenholm:
LOL. Keep dodging the argument. According to these clowns Marco belinelli is a better shooter than Reggie miller because Marco won one and miller didn't.

Okay

These are the best NBA minds nairaland has to offer.
