Larry Bird is the word, if you haven't seen that one.
I've seen the music in it result in some, but not all, people having to mute portions of the audio. So maybe just have some royalty free music playing instead. It's just highlights so audio isn't really necessary.
@@artvandalleigh7894 Thank You for the video suggestion.
Ya forget Larry shot man 3 pointers. JJ and his estrogen kids shoot shorter 3's. So STFU.
Never compare KD to Larry. That's blasphemous to Larry.
Bird is not only one of the greatest shooters he is on the Mount Rushmore of Basketball. This is like saying LeBron is better then MJ. What a Douch. Todays NBA is garbage, soft and unwatchable.
shooting guard Reddicks lifetime career states:
12.8 pts 2.0 reb 2.0 assists doesn't look like he was very good at shooting or guarding.
Reddick is not good enough to even appear in the same room as Cousy and Bird.
Your top 3 don't do it in the clutch like Bird did. Taking nothing away from those 3
You can't argue about numbers with J.J. Redick? You can, of course, and I'd love to ask him how a player who has earned nearly $118 million for averaging a mediocre 12/2/2 has the nerve to call Jerry West or Bob Cousy "plumbers and firemen."
12 in The League ain't mediocre by a damned sight. That said, you never argue with a stupid person because it's impossible. JJ is a stupid person. All this "volume shooter" talk is absurd because it ignores context. At best, it's newspeak that's used by people who say, "giving" and only know "literally" as a modifier.
Bird was open because he MOVED AROUND SCREENS WHILE HIS GUY WAS HOLDING HIM.. watch the highlights again.
You're saying Tatum and SGA aren't like Kobe or Iverson, but someone who witnessed Larry Bird's entire career would say the same thing about Bird as Mad Dog is saying.
Larry Bird is the FIRST player to weaponize the 3-pointer. He's the FIRST player to do it.
Bird was THE BEST 3-point shooter at the dawn of the 3-point era. Period. In his prime, he weaponized it in a way nobody else did. In his era, he led the league in 3-pointers taken and made several times.
Tatum and SGA are not at all like Bean and Chuck. That's immutable fact.
And no one person talking about how far back the 3 was when it came in. Way further back
the amount of DISRESPECT for legends in the nba is absolute bs. It has to stop. I'm a huge hockey fan and not once ever did I hear or say things like oh well Wayne Gretzky played against farmers and hippies. His Era was trash. Like f off guys. These guys built the pathway to what these players make and have. Have some respect for the past. Without them we have nothing and honestly the way each major sport has become they definitely had it harder and worked harder than players now. These leagues were vastly rougher and more fundamental
Bird was the founder of the 50 40 90 club. Not a member the FOUNDER. He was a beast and used the 3 pt. shot for winning and to win contests.
NBA teams didn't average over 10 3-point attempts per game until the year after Bird's retirement. Individuals approach that now and have changed the context of the shot by virtue of that volume. And Larry was open so often because he moved better without the ball than anyone ever, one of his superpowers.
Larry Bird was the Greatest All around player of all time...shooting, rebounding, assists, steals, blocks...he did it all and he did it better than anybody...BETTER THAN ANYBODY!
I agree with you said. If you are basing on percentage Larry was shooting about 40% in an extremely physical era. I think 45% is the best in NBA history. I think you can say that Larry was the best 3 point “clutch” shooter in history. Which also makes him a great 3 point shooter.
larry is not on either list. if ppl think he is a great 3 point shooter its cuz he did it when it COUNTED as opposed to spamming it all game.. the other spammers were not as effecient in the clutch time.. but as far as GENERATING 3 pointers, Bird should not even be on that list. he played 100% WITHIN THE FLOW of the game, he was NOT launching 3s. he was an ALL AROUND PLAYER.. NOT JUST a shooter.. tho he was a GREAT shooter. but he was great at almost all aspects of basketball. You can say he wasn the most high flying player.. but a bucket is a bucket.. you can say he was not a GREAT defender but he WAS a great TEAM defender and A GOOD man defender. Good Man defense, decent athlete (quick hands and reaction time tho) GREAT at EVERYTHING ELSE.
Question: How many of these shooters from this current era do you think are actually telling the defense exactly what they are going to do, before the play starts, and still do it and score? Because we know for a fact that this was done constantly by Bird. And yes, he did it before out of bounds plays where he was going to shoot a 3 pointer too.
He's Lebron's guy JJ was on 6 teams averaged 12 to 15 points a game get the hell outta here
Id take LB over Steph in a three pount contest even today...
The conversation is really moot anyway lol. It really doesn’t matter if Larry is considered to be a top 3 point shooter or top 5 of all time. Larry killed everyone from any place on the court. He was dangerous with every shot from the paint, mid and 3. The game was different back then. They didnt need volume threes to win championships back then so I have no issue if Larry is not on that list. We know he killed with the 3 when needed and it’s fair to say if volume threes were needed back in the day then Larry would be on that list. Larry has a case for just being the best shooter of all time anyway so that is fine with me.
Yes better than KD. You are just to young you did not get to watch him play
You have to understand that bird and the Celtics really took advantage of the big three and their passing and movement was the pioneer of basketball back then. And the fact that Bird had to implement his 3 ball in his career and still was a great shooter, just goes to show you how great he was. Just imagine if he practiced his whole childhood with the 3 ball..?
Larry Bird is the best. You lack context and experience. How can you know when you weren’t even born yet? Listen-to the OG’s you might learn something, or not. Kids these days.
Chris Mullin was a better 3 point shooter than Larry Bird over their respective careers. That is a fact! Even Bird will agree.
I'm a shooter. I averaged over 80% from 3 in semi-pro. 31 points in a quarter. 42 in a half twice. And, statistics don't make me one of the best. JJ has a small point, but Larry Bird was a BEAST. He is certainly top 3. No doubt. Bird would tell defenders his spot, then shoot it in their face. Heart, dog, killer instinct are not stats.
Larry was open because he never stopped moving and using screeens from the inside out. There are no screens or routes beginning in the paint because teams don't start in the paint and move out. Teams today simply start with the floor spread.
Bird could get open because he was a forward. Back then forwards did not leave the paint. They could not keep up with Bird and him moving without the ball. Bird was a unicorn
Who'd they learn from AFTER the game changed? Really?!!!
Larry Was The FIRST To Ever Get 40/50/90 & More Then Once. Look Up How Many YEARS That It Took For Other's To Get Just 1. And You Saying Bird Would Be Wide Open, ha ha ha. Well If You Ever Watched His Games You'll Notice That He Used His BB-High-IQ To Out Wit Other's To Get Wide Open. Because If They Doubled Teamed Him He Would Pass To Other's To Score. Then He Would Let Them Think He Wasn't Going To Shoot A 3, Even When He Had 1 Or 2 Chasing Him. Then Bam He Would Out Wit & Hit A 3. I Really Hate When People Don't Know Good BB Playing At All. Your All Good Just With Everyone Hitting 3's And It's Easy Because No One Can Touch Anyone To Stop It. You Can Be Dumb As A Door Knob And Play Today Because NO ONE Has To Out Think Anyone Else. Sorry There Is No IQ/Out Witting Anyone In This Crap BB Game Today.
If he shot more volume, his percentage would be higher. If you look at most players their percentage goes down with less attempts and up with more. Even Curry
Let's talk about what OP did here. Absolutely padded his time stats with repetitive comments. Never once let the Stephen A comment in one time. Fan boyed his era of Ball without shame. As a reactor this was a D- clip. Boo! 50-40-90 says during that era says it all!
All I can say is that Michael Jordan is considered by most to be the GOAT. MJ considers Larry Bird to be one of the top all time greats. And he played against him. If the GOAT says youre one of the all time greats then that's that. End of discussion.
the point was not being a VOLUME 3 point shooter, the point was he was a GREAT three point shooter. he was the founder of the 50-40-90 club and did it 4 times. THAT MEANS he shot 40% from three for 4 years, btw overall pct. of 38 WAY BETTER than most of todays guys. im through watching you defend an idiot. dont for get to send him a birthday card, can tell you love him goodbye to your video at1:45
Pat Riley quote
" if I had to choose a player to make a shot I would choose Michael Jordan. If I had to choose a Player to save my life it would be Larry Bird "
If JJ Reddick's silly percentages, logic is to be believed..
Steph Curry(.428) is not even the best 3 point shooter in his own FAM ! Seth Curry is better(.435)
AND he's not even as good as his own coach!! Steve Kerr(.454) !
Let that sink in..
You want to talk about percentage? Let's take a look. Who has more 100 percent shooting from the 3 point line.
well only 3 ppl have shot 50/40/90 MULTIPLE times.. Nash, KD, and Bird. Nash did it 4 times.. KD did it twice and almost again. Bird did it twice and almost twice again.. Curry ALMOST did it twice, but currently stands at only once.. so OVERALL, I guess Steve Nash is the best OVERALL shooter in history.. Nash is also 11th in 3point % all time.
id be curious to know how many 3 pointers Larry got compared to total league 3 pointers, compared to the same ratio today...
like yeah, curry got some crazy high total count of 3 pointers, but there are ALOT more made today. Id bet money, that nobody else touches Larry's percent of total 3s in the league at his time(for his winning years). totally guessing, could be wrong... but he was sinking 3s like nobody else at the time.
from what I could find...and I'm not good at this, sorry sorry for any mistakes

He personally made more three pointers than 11 of the teams did that season.
85-86

if you look at their shooting splits, KD and Bird are VERY SIMILAR.. actually they are the oNLY two players in hISTORY (and curry too) to average atleast 28 points WHILE shooting 50/40/90.. but Bird and KD did 50/40/90 TWICE.. and Bird is the only double double guy of the three. sorry for all the responses. interesting video.
It is OK with you responding. KD and Bird are excellent shooters. It was really difficult to choose who was a better shooter between both of them, but it can go either way, to be honest 💯
That left hand bounce pass on the move to DJ at 16:08 was insane. In fact, this entire video cements the fact that Bird's entire career was one big highlight reel. As for his shooting, how much better would Bird have been had he not broken and permanently disfigured is finger on his shooting hand when he was in college? He has stated that he never had the same feel for the basketball. That's a scary thought. As for JJ, his biggest problem is going to be when he takes over as head coach for the Lakers, because we all know who the REAL head coach is going to be. LOL. Great reaction bro.
Thank you for enjoying the video! 💯
It's wild that Larry Bird never had a great feel for the basketball but still had a great jump shot. It would have been interesting to see how much better he would have been if he did have a great feel for the basketball. Regarding JJ, I think he'll be a good coach for the Lakers. It's mind-blowing to me that Redick and LeBron were born in the same year! 🤣🤣🤣
@@JayHemmsSports Did not have a good feel for the basketball? Hello? What planet are you living on?
13:00 - 13:56
In order to understand JJ's point, he mentions that Larry Bird is one of the greatest shooters of all time, but not one of the greatest 3-point shooters. I believe JJ meant that Bird isn't in the Top 3 or Top 5 3-point shooters, and I agree with that. Initially, I said Bird was a top 5 3-point shooter at some point, but later in the video, I corrected myself by saying that Bird is a Top 10 3-point shooter in NBA history, which seems more reasonable to me. Regardless, Larry Bird is undeniably a great shooter.
Undeniably a great 3-point shooter. The volume argument is stupid. Look at percentages. Bird won the 3-point contest three years in a row, the only three times he entered it. Who do you think would have beaten Bird in those contests? Pick anyone from any era - I'd still put my money on Bird.
I'll bet if only counted the threes in the last seconds of the game, Birds is definitely top 3.
Put Curry in Birds era and Bird in todays era. than tell me who would fair better Reddick is wrong. you can't compare eras, but you can compare the players by transposing them into each others era. back than the coaches didn't want players to shoot 3s so Curry would not have been shooting many 3s just like Bird. Tell me who you think would do better.
No doubt, Bird would have been better.
You stay with JJ no one is or will ever be watching his videos
WOW I'm Just 7:50 Into This & You Must Have A Hearing Problem ! When JJ Said A Volume 3-Point Shooter, Maddog Agreed With That! When JJ Acted Like Maddog Said "Best Top 3", Well He Wasn't Listening Either, Because Maddog Said TOP 5, NOT 3. Looks Like You Have A Selective Hearing Like JJ.
I was highlighting what JJ was saying and summarized his conversation with Maddog. I know Maddog agreed with JJ saying that Bird wasn't a volume 3-point shooter, lol. Regarding Bird being a Top 3 or Top 5 shooter, it really didn't matter to JJ because he wasn't to agree with Bird being that great of a shooter anyway 🤣
@@JayHemmsSports I think you went too easy on JJ.
Can you name any player who has won the three point contest in a row?
And won all three 3-point contests he entered!
have you seen this one yet? Why Michael Jordan is Legend? 4/6 - hard foul liavin25
Steph is number 12 all time in 3 point %
Steph is 1st total 3s for a career... ACCUMULATED..
so steph LAUNCHES the most 3s in history. but DOESNT shoot them at the MOST ACCURATE clip.. Klay is number 20 on that % list.. Ray allen is number 46 on that % list..Ray Allen shot the 2nd most 3s ever.. Klay the 6th most ever.
you can say they are the greatest VOLUME 3 point shooters but overall not the best. the BEST would be at the top of the %es as well, DESPITE volume.. I guess you can say they GENERATED 3s on their own more.. other HIGHER % but LESS used players probably were more catch and shoot..
Steph Curry, Klay Thompson, and Ray Allen are all sharpshooters, each shooting 40% or higher from the three-point range. Many, including myself, consider them the best three-point shooters because of their ability to create and make shots in various ways such as catch-and-shoot, off the dribble, and coming off screens. They also often take highly contested threes from deep range. Additionally, the volume of three-point shots they take needs to be taken into account.
In their careers, Stephen Curry has a 43% three-point shooting percentage while attempting 9 threes per game, Klay Thompson has a 41% three-point shooting percentage while attempting 8 threes per game, and Ray Allen has a 40% three-point shooting percentage while attempting 6 threes per game.
It seems that the players with higher three-point percentages tended to be more catch-and-shoot oriented, but they didn't attempt nearly as many threes as Steph, Klay, and Ray.
@@JayHemmsSports yes. CONTEXT.. but JJ says stats is ALL that matter..
Larry isn't a top 5 3pt shooter of all time. Hell, JJ has a better lifetime 3pt % than Bird. Larry's probably barely a top 200 3pt shooter by percentage in the history of the NBA. However, that's the only area where Reddick and Bird can be compared. Period. Over. JJ is just salty that this moron picked the one area where JJ can talk. Didn't hit enough, though, considering he played several more seasons and wound up with less than half the points of Bird.
Bird barely a top 200 3pt shooter by percentage? Can you point us to a source for this misinformation? I didn't think so. Go do your homework.
Thats ooohs are too much.
Fix your audio sir
