You scored before you could react. These 5 are the most ruthless outside shooting experts in NBA history.

In the NBA, three-pointers have become the core weapon for game rhythm and score fluctuations. But not everyone can use three-pointers as a killer move. What is really terrifying are those players who are under pressure as long as they take action. They don’t need cover, regardless of distance or angle. As long as they dare to take action, their opponents will be nervous. These five players are the most intimidating outside shooting in NBA history, and their shooting itself is a tactic.

Fifth place: Ray Allen

Career data: 18.9 points / 3.4 assists / 2973 three-pointers / 40.0% from the hit rate

Honor: 2 championships / 2nd in the history of the three-pointers / One of the cleanest shooters to hit three-pointers

Ray Allen's shooting moves are called "textbooks", with fast shooting speed, extremely accurate landing points, and balanced jumping. Whether it is the ball-holding three-pointer during the Supersonics or the Celtics/Heat’s off-ball running, he can catch the ball accurately. He is not only a stable shooter, but also a cold-blooded terminator. The 2013 G6 three-pointer against the corner was the most important goal in history. He makes people believe that three points are not supplements, but key solutions.

4th place: Reggie Miller

Career data: 18.2 points / 2560 three-point shooting / 39.5% hit rate

Honors: 5 All-Stars / Top 5 in history / The best scorer at home

Reggie Miller is a representative figure of the "psychologically oppressive pitcher". Not only can he score goals, he can also use three-pointers to destroy his opponent's morale at critical moments. The 8.9-sec 8 minutes against the Knicks in the 1995 Eastern Conference semi-finals is the masterpiece. His shooting posture is not standard, but he takes very fast action and is best at shooting quickly after surrounding the screen. He lets the opponent know that as long as he is on the court, it is not safe to lead by 10 points.

Third place: Kyle Korver

Career data: 9.7 points / 2450 three-point shooting / 42.9% from the field

Honors: 2015 All-Stars / Single-Season three-point shooting percentage NBA record holder (53.6%)

Korver is the ultimate of a pure shooter. He does not rely on dribbling or singles, but only on running without the ball + super fast shots, which can create huge constraints on the field. He is the "shooter point" that defensive tactics must be written into the plan. In 2015, he scored crazy data of 12 of 14 shots and 9 of 11 shots in the game. He is the kind of blind reaper who "don't give the ball to him, but if he gives the ball to him, he hits him directly."

Second place: Clay Thompson

Career data: 19.6 points / 2290 three-pointers hits / 41.3% from the hit rate

Honors: 4 championships / 37 points in a single quarter / 14 three-pointers in a single game NBA record

Clay is not a traditional three-point shooter, he is a "explosive tactical terminator". He made 9 three-pointers in a single quarter (9 of 13 shots) and scored 37 points in the whole quarter. He is a master who has no ball around to cover, stops and pulls, runs back and then catches and shoots. He runs accurately and takes clean shots. More importantly, he has the ability to "destroy your entire game three minutes after getting hot." His three-pointer is not a conventional style of play, but a tactical nuclear strike.

No. 1: Stephen Curry

Career data: 24.8 points / 3900 three-point shooting number / 42.7% shooting percentage

Honors: 2 MVPs / 4 championships / First in history 3-point shooting number

Curry is not only the player with the most three-pointers, but also a revolutionary in the sense of three-pointers. He changed the defense style of the entire league, allowing the opponent to extend the defense line and follow him around 9 meters. He can shoot with the ball, step back, dribble, and empty cut, and you can't defend against any method. The 2016 third-pointer against the Thunder was his most representative shot. He did not rely on tactics to get three-pointers, but instead used three-pointers to create tactical space. His shooting is the definition of modern basketball.
