Skewed discussion

The old question, "Who is the best shooter?" has been greatly malformed by the 3-point line. It has become, "Who is the best at shooting from a prescribed, narrow strip of court, knowing beforehand exactly where he will be shooting?" Back in the good old days, before the 3, shooters shot from the place which was the best shot, and that place changed from moment to moment depending on the situation in the game. Shooters had to be good at shooting from anywhere, not just from "Here."
