Help settle a small argument, not going to post other names.

So Stephen Curry is basically the undisputed best 3 pointer of all time, but if we had to pick a number two surely we go with Ray, 40% 3%, 2973 3 pointers, was considered the GOAT before Curry and plenty of clutch ones. Thoughts?

yes

it's also hilarious going back and looking at some of the numbers

99-02 he shot 43% from three, only was taking 6 a game

he led the league in TS in 01 at 61% lmao

that's also why it's really important to look at relative to the league averages, the early 2000s to mid 2000s were nasty ball, so even like a 57% ts was huge at that time

Dame's been at a season of 64.5% ts, but his highest TS+ was 111, Ray's was 118
