Opinions,thoughts about this one.You can also explain about this which will be ok and i would like to see lots of posts on this one.You can also make a Top 5 list if you want.Here are some candidates for this thing:Bird,Miller,Allen,Dirk,Price,Rice,Kerr.............

Reggie Miller is the best PURE shooter of all time. The problem with him is, he was never very good at anything else.

I'd say 3 of my top 5 are without a doubt Miller, Bird, and Allen. Mark Price is someone I'd consider as well as Steve Nash. But I would have to look around more before I could do that.

Ok

This is about shooting and shooting only

I will go with Larry Bird

After him
Ray Allen
Dirk Nowitzki
Reggie Miller
Mark Price

Larry Bird.

Dell Curry is another name I could throw out there

I cant believe I didnt mention Dirk Who is the best shooter in the NBA of All Time 5529

1. Maravich
2. (i dont care Razz

)

Maravich best shooter? scratch

since you said shooting and STRICTLY shooting, that takes out bird for # 1. It's between miller and allen for # 1, I will give it to ray allen because he has more of mid range than reggie.

1. ray allen

2.reggie miller

3.dell curry

4.dirk nowitski

5.larry bird

good list ViSA. there really aren't a lot of historical shooters because long range shooting wasn't really a part of the game until about the 80s.

I was looking for some but just couldnt find any. Im still trying to solve my own top 5.

Make sure your list has maggette Very Happy

no hes an awful shooter LOL

all he can do is draw fouls in the lane.

he cant shoot? i was gonna copy his form...i guess not then!

Maggete's the worst shooter on our team...lol

by far

Ray Allen no question about it. He has a release as quick as lightning, very consistent and can shoot from anywhere on the floor, especially 3s.

Ray Allen is the best shooter of all time.

Knave just wondering, how come most of your "greatests" are current players?

if I had to choose, I'd choose Mark Price.... (:

Okay, Okay.. I pick Reggie.

does anyone know how old knave is? im just curious

Ray Allen is the best shooter, past or present.... If he was playing in the 60s he'd still be my pick.

Reggie Miller. Period.

Ray Allen? No. Like Seattle ever did anything OTHER than dump it off to Allen and Lewis for a three Rolling Eyes

Ray allen is definetly a better overall shooter than miller.

Agreed

He's also better shooter then Dirk Sad

but they are beasty shooters Very Happy

Allen is better overall shooter then Miller duo to these things

-Mid range,Ray can score from screens,create his own shot from dribble
-FT shooting
-Three Point Shooting,one day Allen will surpass Miller's record

1. Larry Bird
2. Reggie Miller
3. Ray Allen
