It is a game-changer that could either bring the team back after being down by a lot or seal the game away as a dagger shot. It is the kind of shot you need to spend hours of work on and several days of repetition to master, or at least hit at a good clip. In the history of the NBA, a lot of games have been won and lost because of the three-point shot.
And in league history, not many players have been able to match up with the incredible three-point shooting of Ray Allen. With almost 3,000 career three-pointers made, Ray Allen is one of the finest outside marksmen the league has ever seen from a historical standpoint. He was one of the few players of his era that lived from the three-point arc, as his mindset was always to shoot the ball from the outside as much as he could. But Allen did not do so just because he wanted to.

NOVEMBER GOOD READS********
I picked 5 stars because this book is amazing! Its inspiring in many ways because Ray went from nothing to something. This book can teach you life lessons and it can teach you about basketball. I think someone else should read it if you are interested in basketball, or you just like to learn about people and their life. To be honest, I do not think anything should be made better or worse in this book. In my opinion this book is the perfect basketball book considering I am into basketball myself. Another thing that I like about this book is that Since Ray was exposed to multiple sports and was a "natural talent" at basketball, I like how the book made it essential that Ray plays basketball rather than any other sports Ray participated in or liked.
