Re: Will Stephen Curry break Ray Allen's single season 3 point record?
If he plays every game the rest of the year, he's going to finish with 78 GP, which is how many Ray played in '05-'06 when he set the record. But, at his current clip of 7.5 3P/G, Curry would tie or break the record on about 80 fewer 3PA than Ray. Of course since he needs to average 4.5 made 3's per game over the final 6 games to break the record, he'll likely take 8-10 3P/G if he's really gunning for it. Also, comparing Allen's shooting percentages in the year he broke the record to Curry's this year: Allen shot .454/.412/.903 and .590 TS% and .544 eFG%; Curry's shooting .449/.454/.897 and .587 TS% and .545 eFG%.
Either way, he's had a phenomenal season. Like Ray, he's really made "the jump" in his 4th season. Allen went from averaging 17-4-4-1 in his 3rd season to 22-4-4-1 in his 4th year. I'm just going to combine his last 2 seasons since he only played in 26 games last year, but Curry's gone from averaging 18-4-6-1.5 last year and the year before, to averaging 23-4-7-1.5 this year.
Their numbers are almost eerily similar.

Retrospectively, would Curry have been a better talent and fit for the 2012 US team in London?
I am LOLing at Deron Williams being on that squad and stink in it up

I think he definitely would have.
Re: Will Stephen Curry break Ray Allen's single season 3 point record?
It would be cool but if he will not accomplish it, it is still good knowing that he is shooting at a good percentage at 3 pt line :). 453%

How can a little boy who doesn't even shave yet be so deadly from 3?

Curry is at a pace to break Ray Allen's all time record if his ankles hold up.
Re: Will Stephen Curry break Ray Allen's single season 3 point record?
Ray's record is 269 from the 05-06 season.
Stephen is at: 261 with 2 games left.
Totally realistic he could beat it.
He hit 9 threes against the Lakers last night.
Re: Will Stephen Curry break Ray Allen's single season 3 point record?

Rest in peace to Ray's record :bowdown:

Most likely to break Ray Allen all time record for 3PT made. If he stays away from injuries.
