Has JJ Redick officially succumbed to the temptation of hot-take sports media? Well, perhaps.
Not too long ago, Redick caused a stir by saying Larry Bird shouldn’t be considered one of the greatest three-point shooters of all time. He then foolishly said there’s no difference in physicality between Bird’s era and today’s game. He doubled down on that statement a couple of days after.
“There’s plenty of people that have shot more, made more, and — guess what — made more at a higher percentage than Larry Bird from three,” Redick told Russo. “I’m not saying Larry Bird is not one of the greatest shooters ever. He’s not one of the greatest three-point shooters ever.”
