I don't know who won, because I got exhausted after the first 6 minutes of watching this, but those dudes have near perfect strokes. Some comments say it was 67 to 65 Kyrie.

-Both have one-motion mechanics. clean.

-KD's release is higher and quicker.

-Kyrie's guide-hand is insanely consistent, but it propels forward along with his shooting hand's wrist snap. I have never noticed that in 8 years of watching that dude. That would interfere with most shooters' accuracy, but it works for him. KD's guide hand is pretty as hell...stay perfectly still for the most part. However, it can flare out now and then.

-KD trusts his mechanics more than Kyrie. When he misses, he shoots with the same intensity. If Kyrie misses too many in a row, he will make a slight adjustment to his base, whether making it more of a set shot and actually jumping into the shot.

-KD don't shoot well at all when he gets tired. Kyrie remains pretty much the same.

These dudes make it look so easy :dead:

Yeah.If a regular cat shot like that at LA Fitness, he'd be a local legend.

My personal record is 21 3's in a row, but that was from the high school/college line.

Then I remember reading an article about how Wesley Person used to routinely hit 90 outta 100 3's in practice.Shyt'll make you feel inadequate.

I'm a gamer, tho.I shoot better when my adrenaline's pumping & I'm being contested.
