EXACTLY....

SO MUCH EASIER TO HIT
CATCH & SHOOT...

WHY IS THIS 36 YR RECORD
THAT WAS DONE TWICE
BY THE SAME GUY STILL STANDING?

I ALREADY TOLD THE OTHER CAT
YOU CANT EVEN HARD CONTEST
THREES IN THIS ERA WITHOUT
BEING CALLED FOR A FOUL
SO THESE ARE ESSENTIALLY OPEN SHOTS
EVEN OFF THE DRIBBLE
WHICH IS WHY GUYS TAKE SO MANY.
:devil:
:evil:
You completely ignored my point about more volume? That hard contesting is a cop out

You hoop so you should know taking step back threes off the dribble require far more skill then catch & shoots. The fact players now are hitting them with more accuracy & volume is all you need to know.

THATS ALL REPETITION.

IF YOU CAN SHOOT YOU
CAN MAKE ALL THOSE SHOTS
WITH PRACTICE.

STEP BACKS DIDNT
REALLY EXIST UNTIL MJ.


STEP BACK/SIDE STEPS ARE
POPULAR NOW
BECAUSE ITS THE EASIEST WAY
TO CREATE SPACE FOR
AN OPEN SHOT.

ITS NOT AS TOUGH AS YOU THINK
AND DOESNT COMPARE TO SOMETHING
LIKE A FADE AWAY IN TERMS
OF DIFFICULTY.

HESITATION PULL UPS
AND 1, 2 PULLS UPS ARE
MUCH HARDER TO MASTER
IN TERMS OF CREATING SPACE
WHICH IS WHY YOU BARELY
SEE THEM ANYMORE OUTSIDE
OF GUYS LIKE KD/KYRIE/KAWHI.

EVERYONE AND
THEIR MOMMA THROWS UP
A STEP BACK NOW BECAUSE
ITS VERY SIMPLE.

:devil:

this dude is not bright, jesus. what an idiotic thread.

so far this season in the nba, the average is 35.3 threes a game at 35% this season (which is actually the lowest % it's been in years). in 1986, when the record was set, it was 4.7 at 30%. clearly a massively higher volume at a much better percentage - league-wide. clearly proving a vast improvement in 3 point shooting overall.

feel free to continue looking like a total fukking dumbass but it doesn't matter how hard you try, what craig hodges did shooting off racks for 60 seconds in an annual contest does not negate that fact.

The 718
That shyt was always garbage prove me wrong when was it supposedly lit :mjlol:

Was it the year a nikka did a lay up or the year someone windmilled into the floor :skip:

Which dunk was lit someone dunking from the FT line for the umpteenth time or dunking with a blindfold on they can clearly see from :mjlol:

There’s only been maybe a handful of contests worth a damn in the 30 year history
Yeah people forget the dunk contest fell off so hard in the 90s they actually scrapped it in '98. Vince Carter revitalized it and we got a couple good ones in the mid-00s, then it fell off again.
