Desmond Mason and Chuck Hayes are currently tied for 1st place

not really an ugly form but pretty unorthodox...

Anthony Mason's one-hander back in the day is in the same category

Rick Berry on his free throws.

Really bad...

Rick Barry was awesome indeed. He still goes around and teaches his way of shooting the FT.

Anyways, here's a random question. Any news on Chris Paul and Dwight Howard willing to join the Heat squad yet?

Dwight Howard is already playing for a better team, so there's no point in him doing it. And Chris Paul is going to the Knicks.

I doubt they'd be willing to play for the minimum when they contracts are up in 2013 (and with the uncertainty of a lockout looming, I doubt they opt out after this season) so unless they're getting traded for LeBron, Wade or Bosh, they're not going to Miami.

Damn... Jamaal Wilkens does a "soccer inbound pass" to the rim

It allows for better range.

If you're a first rounder in your rookie contract, and you get traded in say, your second or third year, are you still a Restricted Free Agent after your fourth?

As long as the team option was exercised I don't see why not.

Have there been any player injured in an all-star game?

I seem to remember Brad Miller tweaking his ankle one year, offhand I'd say the 2003 game.

2004, my mistake.

What's the point of issuing a technical foul for hanging on the rim?

What's the point of issuing a technical foul for hanging on the rim?

A false idea of sportsmanship we have in sports in America and saving the teams/arena money. When 200 something pound men hang on a rim, its eventually gonna break.

When was the last time the Lakers had the #1 draft pick?

1979.

What's the reason behind Jose Calderon's drop from 98% free throw shooting in the 08-09 season, to 80% in the 09-10 season?

Poor free-throw shooting.

Thank you captain obvious.

What answer were you expecting?

Not the one that you gave me.

Calderon was injured for most of last season but played through it. Injury hurt his shooting, and made his already bad defense even worse.
