Larry has the most beautiful right hand movement ever, neck to neck with Steph and Peja ... But about Bird mechanics you could feel the ball rolling on the fingers
Kapono was a machine, one of the best (maybe top 3) in this contest (I think he has the record for more points cumulated in 2 three-points contest’s finals in a row (with previous system with no money-balls rank and no 3 points ball). Steph Curry won 2 of these contests, I hope he will win at least 1 more, to tie the record of 3 three-points contest won of Larry Bird and Craig Hodges. He would definitely confirmed that he is the best 3-pointer of all-time (if it’s not done yet).
Are you telling me the best shot record is still from someone in the 1980s? Yet we are in the era of the best shooters? They had to give 4(8 more points) more money balls to beat his score. That is a shame.
Isn't it because of the sponsor AT&T and before cell phones the phrase "long distance call?" That's gotta be it. Announcers used to call the shot 3-pointers during regular season games. "Long distance" was obviously a play on words to accommodate AT&T who was the sponsor.
It's not exactly about winning the 3pt shootout event, it's about being clutch as being clutch it is. Bird is one of if not the best clutch shooter i've seen so far. Him and MJ🤷
"I'm looking who's gonna finish second!" I would pick for a game LB against any (any!) of the others any day of the week and twice on weekends. And would be a no contest.
@@DanielF892 nah, bird is not that good in shooting compare to the recent shoppers. I mean look at his numbers, there are hundreds of players passed bird in shooting category.

As good as Kyrie looked at 42:00 he only made one more point than Bird’s 22. Reminds me of Dan Marino. Tom Brady made an improvement but it wasn’t by much given the 30 year gap.
Nzinn73 One of the best offensive players certainly. Not one of the best defensive guards. I love Curry but saying he is better than Giannis is something a warriors fan would say. Lol
Todays shooting 3s Carying the ball like throwing the ball to shoot like curry, which is not good to see, not like the Bird style true pure shooting skills basketball.😂😂😂
I was always yelled at by coaches for using my left thumb to help push the ball off...I've noticed about 4 guys that did the same thing bout halfway through this video.. 🤔
Yeah thats some oldhead ass thing for coaches to be teaching. Nothing wrong with using your left thumb to help the ball come off the release smoother aslong as that ball is going straight. Some people flick their whole left hand with the thumb, that is the problem with shots going all over the place, flicking the thumb but left hand is straight don't cause problems
@@dipper5835People like Danny Manning and Andrew Toney always looked to me like they shot the ball with both hands. They both never ended their follow through with the goose neck right hand.
Daquan cook totally got skipped over in '09. Just like the non existent all star game of '99 seems the past 20 years to end with the last year of the decades which is the year the ends with a 9 been bad luck in the nba all star game.
This video only shows the championship round of every year, there's the preliminary round before this so stamina and fatigue comes into play, most of them average 20-25 in the first round, Curry used to get 31 in which year I can't remember.
God loves you and I do too and he sent his son Jesus to die on the cross for our sin.Give your life to Jesus before it’s to late. Jesus he is the way,the truth and the light.If you want to know how reply with how!!!!
all the furor this week over JJ Reddick's comment that Bird is not top 3 all-time three point shooter...well, apart from all the statistical evidence that Reddick is correct, Bird's underwhelming performance in the 1986, 1987 and 1988 3 point shooting contests pretty much supports what Reddick said. Compare any one of these years with Curry...there's just no comparison.

It seemed like Larry bird had like 40. On the first one
Actually he had a score less than 30 counting money balls.
@@zepyoisthebest2373 he had 31 when money ball was on the second rack
@@lazymonkey413 and he wouldnt have put his money Ball there since it wasnt his hot spot.
I thought i was tripping 😂
@@zepyoisthebest2373 there’s 5 racks with a total of 6 points each rack .
After the first 3 point contest, Larry went shouting “I’m the 3 point king! I’m the 3 point king!” Pretty awesome haha
Hodges has the record for making 19 straight that’s crazy
if this was today with the moneyball rack and the 3 pointer craig would’ve had 35 +
This video proved that everyone in the 80s and 90s would dominate today 😂
I think Stephen curry participated the most number of times!
Bird didn't miss a shot in 2 racks, damn 🔥

When They Best Shooters I’m Pretty Sure They Meant Best Shooters In The Game
Bird didn't miss a shot in 2 racks, damn
Curry best 3pt shooter easily
Larry Bird: hold my rings
24 without a 3 point ball, or moneyball rack is crazy!
Bird was a beast 14 straight
Stephen Curry did not win in the 2012 three-point contest. He won the 2015 three-point contest
Stephen Curry 2021 3-Point Contest.
I can't believe in 2001 is when they started calling it a 3pt shot. Be 2001 they were calling it a long distance shot.
chick hearn coined the term 3pt shot along with a ton more phrases we use today including slam dunk look him up hes legendary announcer
