Is Milan our greatest shooter ever

[Drew0311]

Hornacek
Sullivan
tyrus Mcgee
Dedrick
And several others. I have never been so confident anytime some shot the ball.

Yes. /thread

Grayer

In clutch time, gotta be Naz.

 

[Cyched]

If he’s dialed in two months from now, and gets us past the S16, I’ll be willing to anoint him.

I went thru Kenpom's efg% since 2004.
Milan is 71.9% right now, this season.
Second is Tyrese Haliburton at 66.2% in 2019.

 

[twincyties]

He's on pace to break the all time season 3PT% record for the NCAA since they've been tracking it. Long before he was born.

Our next best was high 40s (McGee, I think). I'm not sure Willoughby cracked 45% which is elite, but nowhere close to where Milan is. Sullivan was high volume, but low 40s for his career.

It's not even close if he continues this.

Not many people can have a 4–8 night from three‑point range and have it lower their percentage.

 

[Drew0311]

Btw I forgot Julia’s Michaleke. He deserves to be in the convo

If Milan continues at current rate, he will be tops assuming you're talking about 3-pt shooting. I don't remember Hornacek shooting a high % from 3, though he sure improved it in the NBA.

Stevens is in the conversation with the best. Dude scored over 2,000 career point shooting a high volume of long range jumpers that were worth 2 points

So hard to compare era's

What makes Milan a great shooter is that deadly fade away. Its so fun to watch.

Actually Jon Ness would have been lethal with the 3 ball. But now I am getting into a time where there might be posters who's mom was not born yet. . Jon played a long long time ago

To be fair to horny the three point line didn’t exist when he got to Iowa state for one or two years

Hard to shoot a high percentage when there wasn't a 3 point line.

 

[CycloneT]

Without a doubt. He’s can pass Sullivan this season in career makes on a similar percentage in one less year. If he somehow comes back next year he will obliterate it.

Every year, it was added the year after he graduated

 

[gocy444]

He’s been sooo good this year. I really think he could average 25+ppg if we ran more through him. While his 3 is deadly, I love getting him on the high block.

Jake Sullivan was the best standstill shooter ISU ever has. Overall he's top 2-3. It was nothing for him during warmups to hit 90 out of 100 3s. Nobody could beat him in a game of horse.

If he couldn’t do it in a game, who cares. Lots of guys are great shooters with no one guarding them.

Grayer

Jeff Grayer? We said shooters not scorers

 

[Big_Sill]

Season, yes

1) 3 pt %
2) # of makes
3) 3 point line being moved back compared to most others

This will likely be the best 3 point shooting season in ISU history. It may be the best in NCAA history.

The # of makes combined with the % is just insane.
