WHERE'S LSU'S CHRIS JACKSON? THE BEST SHOOTER IN BASKETBALL EVER! WHY DO THEY HATE SO MUCH ON HIM?As a freshman at LSU Jackson avg 30pts per game! In his second season avg 28 then went to NBA.Look at free throw pct: Bird=82%; Pete=77%; Jackson=87% including 91% in his 2nd year!In his 3rd game at LSU he dropped 48pts! In his 5th game at LSU he torched Univ of Florida for 53pts! He had numerous 50pts 40pts+ outings. Where is CHRIS JACKSON on this list?#1 BEST SHOOTER EVER= CHRIS JACKSON!

@budlite8 - Jordan won with the help of Worthy and Perkins , Matt Dougherty and Steve Hale - all excellent college players. Jordan got one player of the year award but both Worthy and Perkins had better college careers.

@jlcon99 - Pete's shooting % was never that high. He had 43.8 FG % at LSU. He was a great ball handler and overall magician (before his time) that he made opportunities to shoot on his own. He wasn't allowed to carry and palm the ball as players of today are allowed to do.Larry Bird scored a lot but shot well over 50 % from the field (53.3) , a la Austin Carr who shot 52.9 from the field. I loved to watch Carr and Bird in college but I must admit that Pistol Pete was more exciting !

Finally , a commentator with some credence. Austin Carr , who holds the NCAA tourney points per game record to this day. He averaged 34.6 points per game while at Notre Dame. He shot 52.9 % from the field -81% from the line. Many of his shots would have been long NBA threes but there wasn't a 3 point shot at that time.Before UCLA began their 88 game win streak - their last loss was to Notre Dame in January of 1971 courtesy of Notre Dame and 46 points by Carr.

Bird è stato il miglior giocatore bianco di tutti i tempi, il più completo, ho visto basket per 40 anni in tutto il mondo...

@scoobes11 Totally agree. The Pistol is in a league of his own. There's the pistol, and there's everyone else.
