Why didn't you tell me Hornacek was a career .496 FG shooter? You never talk about that.

How close were he, Stockton, and Korver to having a .500 FG, .500 3P%, .900 FT season?

What about .500 FG, .400 3P%, .900 FT season?

(Even if it wasn't with the Jazz, like Korver's 2014-2015 season.)

Did Mark Price do any of these? What about Chris Paul?

Last year of his career, he was 3 makes away from 50%, though he did average less than 2 attempts per game: Jeff Hornacek 1999-00 Game Log | Basketball-Reference.com

Also, that was the only year he shot over 90% from the free-throw line.

Chris Paul only has one year over 50% on field goals. Not over 90% that year on free throws.

Good find.

If Hornacek wasn't a 90% shooter from the foul line, then he shouldn't have been featured in the Spalding commercial, doing his FT routine. Yes he had a memorable routine, but I want 90% FT shooters featured and memorable.

Thanks for looking these up.

I guess 50% FG, 50% 3P %, and 90% FTs is the new magic season then.

Steve Kerr and Steve Novak did it. I didn't even have to add the filter for the 50% season, because the 50% 3P% and 90% FT automatically removed sub .50% FG players.

Novak only attempted 8 FTs though, so I should remove him.

So really only Kerr has done it.

If I remove the requirement of at least 40 3-point attempts, then Darrell Armstrong did it, also in the same season as Kerr.

He only attempted 4 FTs though, so he shouldn't count.

Mark Price was 2 made 3's away, and 6 made FTs away, from a 50% 3P, 90% FT season in 1987-1988.

Between the two years in total, I think he is.

Is the commercial in the year that he shot 95%? I don’t think so cause that was his last year.

No, the Spalding commercial I'm thinking of came out a few years ago. It showed a lot of different players' FT routines.

No, a lot of them weren't 90% foul shooters either. It's just that I really want a prominent Jazz player to be a 90% foul shooter.

This gives me an idea for another day to see you at the biggest discrepancy between 2% shooting and 3% shooting. I don’t know how to exactly look that up besides sitting maximums and minimums. I am better at game finding than season finding.

No, you're great at finding everything. That's why we've had so many successful search threads, since at least 2008.
