man, in my memory redd was a much better shooter than he actually was
only shot > 40% from three in his first two full seasons!
yea maybe those stats are a better illustration of how different the game was than a difference in how good i thought redd was and how he actually was, but i was still surprised to see it
kerr had three seasons > 50%! and yet his attempts were never more than 2.9 per game. if you had a shooter like that today, likely he'd be at 5+ attempts per game (see: Joe Harris).
fuck meyers leonard

You mean HOF Finalist Ben Wallace.
hard to imagine Wallace in today's NBA
