If you watch Chris Mullin highlights, he consistently steps in from the 3pt line
That would be a cardinal sin in today's NBA. But back then the thought process was simply that a 19 footer was closer than a 22 footer so its a higher percentage shot.

What was the NBA thinking back in the 80s and 90s regarding the 3 pt shot?

One reason those %'s are higher is for the most part they were only shooting

Not if they had actually taken more 3s and practiced them

Maybe players back then weren’t as good as players today

It has taken a generator to develop the skillsets for those shots. Could

Great points. The best example of a one-game sample
