Frist one that came to my mind was Bird. But, I'd throw in Reggie Miller and Ray Allen too.

Anyone ever see Craig Hodges of the Bulls hit 19 in a row in the 3 point contest? ...just, pure and plain, sick.

I want to throw in Dan Majerle for "best long distance shooter of all time". Not necessarily best 3 point shooter, but if the clock was running down and the shot was half court or further, definitely Thunder Dan.

Mark Price certainly deserves a mention and probably had the most perfect shooting mechanics i have ever seen. When my kids are old enough to play i'll be showing them old tapes of Price to learn how to have the perfect form.

Agreed. You don't have to throw it in. It's a fact. He was its best "furthest" 3 point shooter, if that makes sense. He didn't take 3 pointers, he took 3 pointers + 7/8 more feet further back and drained consistently. roll eyes (sarcastic)

Amazingly disgusting.
