:biggums: :wtf:

Shit is insane. Any chance he makes it into the all star game?

Teague and Millsap both deserve an All Star bid over Korver and I really can't see the Hawks getting three all stars, even though they probably deserve it. Korver's unreal, would be the first 50/50/90 season in history iirc.

[Thorpesaurous]

There's only a handful of 50/40/90 seasons iirc. And I think five of them belong to Dirk Larry and Durant.

Another thread about the Hawks.

He should not be an all star, nor should any Hawk. Their success is truly that of a team and not any individual.

Salty.

[Droid101]

Salty.
How am I salty? The Hawks are the most dominant team since the 2001 Lakers. Completely unstoppable.

This is because of superior team play, not any individual players.

Teague is at 18/7 with high percentages

all-star caliber...worse have gotten in

In Hawkland, if you have ever made a negative post about the Hawks, you're a LeBron fan somehow. :confusedshrug:

Kobe Stan?

[Relinquish]

Kobe Stan?

Yes, he's one of the most delusional Kobe stans in existence.

[Beastmode88]

The bulls. :facepalm

[GOBB]

Teague is All Star caliber. Bout it. Doubt he makes it tho. Rose, Wall, Lowry to compete with.

Get real. I'm a Laker fan. I wish Kobe would do us a favor and retire.

Kerr had a 53/52/78 once. I can't think of a player having a 50/50/90 though.

Someone went through the trouble to make a 50-40-90 club wiki page. The leader in the category is Nash with 4 out of a total of 10.

50-40-90 Club:

Nash x 4
Larry Bird x 2
Mark Price
Reggie Miller
Dirk
Durant


Nash had highest 3P% at 47% during the 2007-2008 season.

stephen curry would probably make it if he didnt take a bunch of bad shots
actually he is on pace right now at .499 fg

rose competes in the paraolympics tbh, let's not pick on him. wall and lowry are definetly over teague.

[Young X]

He's shooting 72.6 TS% 38 games into the season. That's ****ing crazy. Shooting GAWD.

Rounding doesn't count. Its been done double the times if you include rounding (like .495 and up).

If you rounded 49.5 and higher to 50 Nash would still be the leader with 6.

Its funny how more select the group looks by rounding .5% up in 1 of the categories... it goes from Nash, Bird, Dirk, Miller, Mark Price to guys like Jose Calderon, Dana Barros, Danny Ferry, Mario Elie, Steve kerr... Korver falls more with this bunch in my head... the others had all around games...

[OnFire]

Steve Kerr was 50/50/78 in 1994/1995 AND 50/50/92 in 1995/1996

Steve Kerr 1994/1995
52.7 / 52.4 / 77.8 (weird free throw year i guess)

Steve Kerr 1995/1996
50.5 / 51.5 / 92.9

Not near the volume Korver is shooting at though. Korver has already shot 49 more 3's than Kerr shot that entire year in 1995. Korver's is WAYYYYYY more impressive. And only 18 behind the other 2

yea i know it doesnt count just saying he has a good chance to hit 50

Obviously Korver gets more shots he isn't playing with Michael Jordan. However, season isn't over either. Not even All Star break.

[Smoke117]

Is Kyle Korver an all star? Absolutely not.

[OnFire]

ATLJONESBRO,

In turn, I will also say that for sure every member of the 50-40-90 club's seasons were more impressive than Kyle Korver's season this year even if he stays on pace. Higher 3P% or not.

Bird and Durant scored over 28ppg their seasons. Bird averaged 1600 attempts in his 2. Dirk 25ppg on 1400 attempts and durant also 1400 attempts. Nash averaged over 11 assists per game, leading the league 3 of the times he was doing all this shooting.

Mark Price is the closet comparison I may give him edge over but he was 18.9/8.4 that season.

[AirFederer]

Kobe could do it if he wanted.

[dirkdiggler41]

Jason Kapono was close in the 2006-2007 season. Avg. 11ppg 49fg% and 51% from 3 point land. Shot 89 from the ft line.

Damn, guy should've shot less two's.

[He Strong]

Just realized he didn't reach any of these marks. I was hoping he would get a 50/50/90 season. :(

He slumped hard there for a while, broken nose didn't help.

Looked locked in for game 1 of the playoffs though, and that's really all I care about :cheers:
