Who is the “greatest shooter” in Cavs history?

Do Not Sell My Personal Information
Agree with this. Doubt it's enough to get him on the list but...

JR Smith's ability to make circus shots, the type to make a coach's head melt if they didn't go in - was something to behold.
People may remember other parts of that game but without JR's shooting in the third quarter of game 7 Cleveland would still be looking for its first championship since 1964. When all is said and done he might be the figure from the championship team that is remembered the most fondly by Cleveland fans.
 
Without looking at stats my answer is Kyrie was the most talented shooter while Price had the best overall career. Price was the gold standard free throw shooter, for instance, but he couldn't hit circus shot after circus shot like Kyrie did against the Spurs, let alone that Finals miracle.

Gonna give Boobie a shout out as well because he was the first great shooter I watched. Not just Game 6 but that incredible Rookie game MVP performance. There was something about his form that was just beautiful.
 
Yeah I can’t really say because I wasn’t a Cavs fan pre-2001 but Kyrie would be my pick, and Boobie at his peak was special
 
Obviously after last game the answer to thsi question is Ricky Rubio,
