Bill Sharman's 88.3 is more impressive when one realizes equipment in the fifties was far less consistent. Also, the equipment has improved a lot since Barry shot 90% underhanded.
@@ColonelSpankysLostBattalion The ball manufacturer and testing improved significantly since Sharman. The rim since Barry and just the expenses put into the game. The floors are of course much better but doesn't really effect free throw s. The Boston Garden was infamous for dead spots and the myth is Bird knew every imperfection making it into an additional defender.
People don't understand how much fundamental and focus/shooting skills it takes to make free throws, usually after getting fouled. And I noticed two things, MJ was so great that even thou he isn't known to be a fundamental shooter, he made it on this list for shooting freebies at 0.85%. Also, Ray Allen is too impressive for someone who was able to adapt his game and became a great shooter.
It's impressive to see Jack Sikma making it onto the list during the late '80s; the guy was a center!
love how all these videos have Steve Nash's flag as South Africa when the dudes Canadian

What equipment improved? The ball? The hoop? The backboard? The floor?

Interesting how those legends stayed in it.
WOW💯👍🏿👏🏿🔥
0.8% is less that 1 of 100 shots taken. You took ‰ instead of %
There must be some extra qualifier here. Surely somebody in NBA history got in, went to the line once and sunk them both, then got cut.
Dude? Why did you put Croatian flag with Peđa Stojaković, he is Serbian.
We got prime boys we got prime we got prime
People forget about Mark Price
My fav as a kid
His jump shot was perfect. So fundamental
Where is Shaq
0.8% is not the same as 80%
You are correct. I can make .8% with both of my eyes closed. And facing the opposite goal.
you are missing to Shaq
Curry
Steve Nash came to Canada at age 18 months old, grew up he and learned his basketball here……………HE IS CANADIAN!!!!
