AboveLegit Posted February 13, 2011 Report Share Posted February 13, 2011 Do you ever see anyone beating his record? One guy that I think has a chance to come close is Stephen Curry.. He had 166 three's in his rookie season, compared to Ray's 117 his rookie season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flash Posted February 13, 2011 Report Share Posted February 13, 2011 Curry is he can have the same longevity that Allen has had over his career. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Makaveli Posted February 13, 2011 Report Share Posted February 13, 2011 I would go with Curry too. One of the best shooters in the league. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ManOnTheMoon Posted February 13, 2011 Report Share Posted February 13, 2011 Curry if he stays as healthy as Allen has throughout his career. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Truth Posted February 13, 2011 Report Share Posted February 13, 2011 Curry has no chance. I'd say Durant even has a better chance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flash Posted February 13, 2011 Report Share Posted February 13, 2011 Durant has a great shot too, but a his game develops (he's only 22) he's going to be able to get his points closer to the bucket. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Owner Real Deal Posted February 13, 2011 Owner Report Share Posted February 13, 2011 It depends. Curry may have to become more of a facilitator...he's shown that he can run an offense and pass the ball well, and if Monta ends up being traded, Curry will handle the ball much more, create more for his teammates, and his three-point attempts will fall. Durant doesn't hit them as efficiently, so I don't see it happening for him. Kyle Korver would get close if he was getting more minutes and shot attempts. He's a top three shooter in the NBA (Ray is better this season, and I'm sure I could find someone else). Curry will most likely get up there, but it all depends on the role he has to play later in his career. As a facilitator and a pure point...no, he won't set the record.

deestillballin Posted February 13, 2011 Report Share Posted February 13, 2011 Curry. Hes just in what his 2nd year and he is already scary from behind the arc. Korver with a close 2nd. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Check my Stats Posted February 13, 2011 Report Share Posted February 13, 2011 (edited) Allen was averaging anywhere between 7-9 threes a game in his prime, and was always hitting them at around 40%. I don't see anyone in the NBA right now that I think can or will do that. Durant is the only guy with the green light to really take enough to get close. And the difference between guys like Allen and Redick, Korver, etc, is that Allen could get his, those guys are spot up shooters.

Owner Real Deal Posted February 13, 2011 Owner Report Share Posted February 13, 2011 Allen gets almost every three he makes by running off of screens, just like Korver (and Reggie Miller). The difference is that Allen has played 35-40 minutes a game, and was once the primary scoring option. Korver will never have that opportunity. You rarely see Allen go isolation, then drop a three. Very rare, even when he was in Seattle and Milwaukee. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Legacy Posted February 14, 2011 Report Share Posted February 14, 2011 Anthony MORROW. Real talk.this. Morrow can easily break it if he takes as many attempts as Allen has. Curry is most likely though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fish7718 Posted February 14, 2011 Report Share Posted February 14, 2011 I don't see how Curry is more likely than Gallo, Gallo is the same age, has more 3's right now and takes more 3's, and is an offense that will always call for him to take 3's.

AboveLegit Posted February 14, 2011 Author Report Share Posted February 14, 2011 I don't see how Curry is more likely than Gallo, Gallo is the same age, has more 3's right now and takes more 3's, and is an offense that will always call for him to take 3's.True, but it's more about longevity, I see Curry having a longer career than Gallo. Just look at Peja, he's in the top 5 in three's, but he could have been much higher had he not been injured so much. Guards tend to have longer careers, and Curry has the stroke that can keep him in the league for a very long time. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lemon Posted February 14, 2011 Report Share Posted February 14, 2011 (edited) Dorrell Wright can. But to be honest, no one will probably touch it. On second thought, ya, Steph Curry has a chance to break the record provided he has Allen's longevity.
