    This goes back to what I mentioned earlier. Webster looked great but was a flop. Wilkes looked baboon-butt-ugly, but had great success. Is there really an objective criteria for what is good form?

    It’s overrated. It’s nice to watch a pretty shot, but Reggie millers stroke wasn’t exactly textbook.

    This debate is a lot simpler when applied to baseball. Unlike baseball pitchers, basketball players with bad mechanics rarely give themselves career altering or ending injuries.

    Ant and Grant have really quick release on their shot.

    Josh Hart and Jerami Grant both have excellent shots and have scored beautifully, including scoring game winners!

    Kevin Martin had the best shot mechanics I’ve ever seen.
