^^^ 35 of the 45 titles in the history of 3-pointer basketball were won by teams led by expert jumpshooters or fundamental bigs..
Unlike ball-dominators or "down-hill" players that impose spot-up roles (not 5-man basketball), the skillsets of fundamental bigs or expert jumpshooters allow the ball to move, which allows the development of great chemistry and a great-performing cast, aka great team.
Btw, it isn't coincidence that the goats of basketball combined the best of both worlds, aka expert jumpshooting and fundamental post game = Bird or MJ (and his clone Kobe).. These are my top 3 all-time.
