Reggie Miller

Reggie Miller was the most clutch three-point shooter in NBA history before Stephen Curry rewrote the record books. His 8 points in 8.9 seconds against the Knicks in the 1995 playoffs remains the single most iconic shooting performance in postseason history — a sequence so absurd that Spike Lee's courtside reaction became as famous as the shots themselves.

Miller spent his entire 18-year career with the Indiana Pacers, a one-franchise loyalty that is increasingly rare. He retired as the NBA's all-time leader in three-pointers made (2,560), a record that stood until Ray Allen broke it in 2011. Miller's ability to run off screens, catch and shoot in rhythm, and hit the biggest shots in the biggest moments made him the prototype for the modern movement shooter.

What made Miller special wasn't just his shooting — it was his psychological warfare. He thrived on hostile environments, feeding off opposing crowds' energy and using trash talk to get inside defenders' heads. His rivalry with the Knicks, fueled by his battles with John Starks and his trolling of Spike Lee, was the NBA's most entertaining personal feud of the 1990s. Miller's Pacers never won a championship, but his shooting legacy shaped the three-point revolution.
