>>150736980Obviously not, he transformed the way the game is played
>>150736980From a statistical standpoint, no one was better than Steph Curry. However, a strong argument can be made that Pete Maravich would be in the conversation for the greatest shooter of all time if he had played in an era with a three-point line. Maravich was known for consistently making long-range jump shots. Retrospective statistical analyses have demonstrated that if a three-point line had existed during his career, his scoring average would have been significantly higher, placing his offensive output among the all-time greats.

>>150740404While their statistical profiles may not be comparable, an argument can be made that Pistol Pete was as transformative as Steph Curry. In fact, his impact was arguably even more profound, as he didn't just change the game—he helped create the modern style of play.Maravich is widely credited with pioneering a creative and flashy style of dribbling and passing that has since become a fundamental element of contemporary basketball.

>>150736980Maravitch would have been the 3 point king but the 3 point line didn't become a thing until his final season until he was broken down and playing limited minutes. But that one season he shot 67%. And again, that was the one foot in the grave due to age and injuries version of Maravitch. Prime Pistol Pete with a 3 point line probably shoots like 50+% with high volume. It's a fucking tragedy that the dude who was built to shoot meme shots didn't ever really get a chance to play with a 3 point line.
