    Cool The best long-range shooter in the NBA's HISTORY is on the Rockets roster.



    That's the face of the best shooter in the NBA. And one of the best in the history of basketball.

    Troy Daniel has made a D-league record, 240 3 pointers in just 48 GAMES on 40% shooting from 3.

    http://www.basketball-reference.com/...anietr01d.html

    To compare, Steph Curry, one of the greatest in NBA history made 272 3's in 78 games.


    I don't think Curry could even make THAT many 3's in so few games.
    Say what you want about the D-league, but guys are playing for checks and guys are hustling for their careers.


    Now Daniels, in actual NBA games right now, is shooting a ridiculous 48% from 3 on 12-25 from 3 in just 5 games playing 15 MPG.

    He's on pace to make more than 900 3's in a full season. Now I know he wouldn't make that many, but he'd easily break the record if he were playing for the sixers a full season.

    Best 3 point shooter in the NBA by far. It's not close.

    He's our quiet X-factor.

    You seriously think he's a better shooter than Curry? That little scrub would have his ass sent back to the D-League if he was guarded like Curry.

    ****ing Rockets fans...

    As a pure shooter it's 50/50


    So how many well known NBA shooters do you think are definitely better than this guy. I don't see Mike Miller even coming close to his feats for instance.

    Korver? He's a low volume shooter.

    Ray Allen? Not even in his prime.

    You're ****ing kidding yourself if you think this guy is just an average NBA shooter.

    Oh no, he's literally poor to average at everything else but shooting. But he's shooting 48% in the 5 straight games so far from 3.

    You can't just ignore that..................

    And he's done well enough to get signed by the Rockets guarunteed for two full seasons. He's not just a call-up............. Has has one elite skill.....

    enough for this scrub to steal lins playing time in the horrible morey ball system.

    Well, this is a start. I can reply to this.


    Lin is almost definitely playing 28+ minutes a game. McHale definitely doesn't trust Daniels. He'll probably get 5-10 minutes to chuck 3's and we'll see where that goes.
