No mention of his 3-point-shot abilities

I'm surprised there isn't a few sentences of his exceptional three point shooting abilities. I remember for a while he had made either the most 3 points shots in a game (8?), or had tied the most, something like 7, 8, or 9 in one game. Just as well he was viewed as such. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 110.74.195.199 (talk) 08:28, 27 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Correction to exaggerated/inaccurate phrase

There is a line containing "remains among the all-time league leaders in three-point field goals made and attempted". That is so massively inaccurate that I'm disappointed that someone got away with it. Ergo I made a small change.

Reason: at least as of 2020 he is not even in the top 50. Many of those have not played since 2005, and from 51st place down to Mr. Adams there may be even others above him, so it possibly would have been considered an exaggeration 15 years ago. Source
