Kidd made most of those 3's on the back end of his career with the set and release shot from the old days of basketball. He should have played with Big O cause his game fit in more with those days. Don't know how he madr so many all defenses teams because his D was average at best. He wasn't stealing balls like Paul.

Bird was a great 3-guard though


He most certainly was, one of the best ever

I don't think 9 of them is a fluke or something.
Only Pippen, Kareem, Kobe, Garnett, and Duncan have more. And that is something voted on by the coaches, not media or fans.
And he's 2nd all time in steals

Since the 2001 season, he only made less than 100 3's in a season twice, and those two seasons he only played 67 games (made 94 that year), and 48 games
In 2002 he started shooting a lot more threes than before, around twice as much, and his % went up a good bit as well. His first 3 seasons in Dallas he shot over 40% in each one.
