Favourite "shot"?

Postby jonthefon on Wed May 23, 2007 9:05 pm

Which past/present player had the shot which you liked the most?

I liked John Paxson's shot. That style was just beautiful. I wish I could shoot like that.

Well I actually prefer Nowitzki's too, but at the Free-throw line, I use Austin Croshere's method, I hit somewhere between 75-83% of all of my FT's when I shoot like that...

Michael Redd's shots look nice considering that he's a lefties and so am I. He's got a quick release.

Yup, I'm a leftie too and I think also think Redd got one of the smoothest shots in the NBA.

Dirk's shot, but I prefer Marion's method of flinging up the free throw. Works for me. :wink:

I think Ray Allen has the perfect shot. It looks so effortless. Dirk does pretty good, too. But it's a totally different style of shooting. And of course, there's Reggie Miller.

Derek Fisher's lefties. Lebron's and Stephen Jackson's shot, in the way it's over the head.
I love how Kobe shoots and I have no idea how he does it. It looks like the way a big man would shoot the ball over someone in the post, but with the hands positioned on the ball a little differently.
And Dwade's shot because it's like how I shoot.

Shawn Marion and Ben Wallace FTW!!!! :lol:

I like Nash's smooth shot and Nowitzki's fade away, but staying in the air lnoge than you opponent is way better, Jordan's for sure.
