Peja ,Jordan , Ray Allen are the only ones who can miss and its still beautiful watching them shoot.

[@omni201]

Peja was one of the deadliest of all time in my opinion simply because although players train to be able to shoot threes from all sides, many of them end up favoring a side/angle, excluding Stephen Curry, Ray Allen and Peja. He was deadly from all angles

Yes. The confusion seemed to stem from the change of rules between the 2002 and 2003 competition. Stojakovic was involved in a tie-breaker in 2002 as well, only that one lasted just 24 seconds. In 2003, the buzzer still sounded at 24 seconds, leading Stojakovic to believe his round was over, even though it was supposed to be a minute. The NBA decided it'd only be fair to re-do the round on account of their own mistake.
