The NBA regular season is a quarterway through, and the Warriors continue to be in good shape, winning 126-95 today to the Magic and currently ranking first in the league with 20 wins and 4 losses. Throughout the game, Curry felt revived, he shot 8 of 16, including 7 of 13 three-pointers, cut 31 points, 3 rebounds and 8 assists, which was the biggest contributor to the Warriors' victory. It is worth mentioning that Curry has now shot a total of 2958 three-pointers, which is getting closer and closer to Ray Allen in the NBA's historical three-point list, only 15 three-point difference, that is, curry can surpass Ray Allen to become the three-point king of history as long as he shoots 16 more three-pointers.
After the game, Curry was interviewed, and a reporter asked about the historical three-point king, and Curry said that he understood the current situation and knew that he was about to break Ray Allen's three-point record, but he also tried not to let this matter affect the consistent way of playing. When asked if he wanted to break the record in the next game, Curry smiled and said that everything was possible, and the reporter still did not spare, and then Curry said to wait until the record was really broken. A total of 785 games, shooting 2958 three-pointers, so how many three-pointers did Ray Allen and Miller hit in the same game?
Ray Allen was Curry's greatest three-point shooter before, and in the 1996 Draft, the Timberwolves selected Ray Allen with the fifth overall pick in the first round, and was subsequently traded to the Bucks, and for 18 seasons in his career, Ray Allen played for the Bucks, Supersonics, Celtics and Heat, winning two championships, including one at the Celtics and the other at the Heat. In the final moments of the 2012-13 Finals G6, Ray Allen shot a three-pointer to help the Heat pull back a set to win the championship against the Spurs. In game 785, When Ray Allen scored 2,106 three-pointers, he was a lot less than Curry.
Miller was Ray Allen's greatest three-point shooter before, and he was Curry's old predecessor, in the 1987 draft, the Pacers selected Miller with the eleventh pick in the first round, and after entering the league, Miller played for the Pacers for 18 seasons, which is the typical representative of one man and one city. Unfortunately, although Miller is loyal, he has never tasted the taste of the championship, and the most memorable thing in his career should be the "Miller moment", scoring 8 points in 8.9 seconds at the key moment of the playoffs, magically reversing the Knicks. In game 785, Miller had 1,385 three-pointers, less than half of Curry's.
It can be seen that Curry's scoring method is more focused on three-pointers, he averaged 8.7 three-pointers in 17.5 shots per game, accounting for half; Ray Allen averaged 5.7 three-pointers in 14.6 shots per game, less than half; Miller averaged 4.7 three-pointers in 12.6 shots per game, accounting for about the same proportion as Ray Allen. Curry, Ray Allen and Miller, all of whom are the most successful three-point shooters of their time, are in the top three of the NBA's all-time three-point list, one wave is stronger than another, Curry's career is longer, and it is clear that his three-point shooting number will far exceed that of his predecessors.
