    I know we've already had a topic like this but I couldn't find it. So who would your top 5 as far as form shooting goes. Who has the prettiest shot?1.Kobe Bryant[​IMG]2.Steve Nash[​IMG]3.Ray Allen[​IMG]4.Derek Fisher[​IMG]5.Chauncey Billups[​IMG]This is all opinion, so there should be a lot of difference between everyone's lists.

That shows how much flick of his wrist goes in to the shot...which makes your shot perfectHis elbow his in, his follow through is amazing, and he squares himself to the basket before he shoots. Its nearly perfect

    what i love is that instead of his right hand going to the right like Wade it gors to the left. i once imitated his shot and i was on fire but how his form is so hard to master i lost it withing an hour or so.

    guys, you're forgetting someone.[​IMG][​IMG]He and Ray Ray have the purest shots to me. Nash's and Kobe's are nice too.

    All I gotta say is how do you not have Ray Allen first on your list Lakersfan? The guy has the purest shot in the league hands down. Kobe and Nash both have nice form but no one comes close to Ray Rays

Ray has a better shot but it's not prettier.

Honestly have you watched Ray Allen even close to as much as Kobe. I bet you if you watched Ray Allen as much as Kobe you would know how much Rays is better. BTW Kobe has the prettiest shot since Jordan? Ever heard of a guy named Reggie Miller?

    I have to agree with lakaboy actually. Everything about Kobes shot is perfect. Ray Allens elbow flairs out in shot. Sure, ray allen is a better shooter but that doesnt make his shot prettier.

    [​IMG]Kirk's is also pretty nice.Also Peja's shooting form does look pretty ugly, but he has a nice quick release off of his fingertips which makes his shot so accurate.
