One of the coolest basketball videos I've ever seen...

I'd take Kingsbury over Redick. I remember watching him warm up at games and he would close out his warmups by taking half-court jumpers.

He's the only guy that I've ever seen who didn't change his shot form from that far out, and it usually only took him three or four attempts to hit.

Redick is an amazing shooter, but Kingsbury was the best long-distance 3-point shooter I've ever seen.

My Friend goes to DUKE, so i watch them on tv. But its amazing to see him shoot. he can make like 40 pts ina game and when he shoots he usually doens't misses. thats the best part about watching him.
 
I'm not saying that's not difficult, but it's only amazing because you don't see players do that very often because it's not usually effective at winning games. A lot of players could do that if they spent a lot of time practicing outside the arc. When I played basketball in high school, I could make those shots outside the three point line in my sleep, but I was complete crap at driving the ball inside and coming away with the points. In the end, it's usually your defense and the two-pointers that win you the game. I could even make shots that would arc all the way up to the ceiling, come back down and touch nothing but net, and half-court shots were simple, but I could never win a 1-on-1 game because I sucked at driving the ball.

The one game I DID kick ass at was Sign Out. 🙂
