Cameron Mills could come off the bench cold as a wet rock and light it up. I would hide my eyes when they passed it to him. Thanks to him and fast food i'm on high blood pressure medician.

During my generation, its between Tony Delk, Patrick Sparks, and Jodie Meeks.

**Stardust** · 07-22-2009, 09:40 AM

As mentioned before, Louie Dampier #1. #2 would be Kyle Macy.

Warriors23RJ · 07-22-2009, 10:51 AM

Tony Delk is the best i've seen.

Kevin Grevey, forgot about him.

Jack "Goose" Givens was as good an all-around player that UK has had.

Dan Issel was a big man. He made the majority of his shots under the bucket. We are talking about "pure shooters", read the thread title.

You may be a little too you for Dan Issel, but Issel was a big man who shot 70% of his shots away from the basket. He was Kiki Vandeweigh, before there was a Kiki Vandeweigh. I agree with you, Issel should not be included in this discussion, be cause we are truly evaluating perimeter shooters, but most of Issels shots wee from 15' out. The reason he was such a great scorer is because the big men would not step out and guard him, then he made them pay with his deadly shooting.

So a big man cant be a pure shooter?

**Playboy5** · 07-22-2009, 11:01 PM

Tony Delk

Jimmy Dugan · 07-22-2009, 11:03 PM

The best I have seen in my life time is Delk.

A big man most certainly can be a pure shooter. I just believe Dan Issel wouldn't be considered a pure shooter.

Issel was a major match up problem for other teams.
All the top field goal percentage players were center/forwards which isn't surprising, however #18 on the following link is...lol
