    Mo Pete did that earlier on this season while driving for a layup. He got fouled and still made the layup while blindfolded. Richard who?

    was that a shot or a layup? If its a shot thats impressive.

    Mind you we have all done it havent we? Blind folded ourselves at the freethrow line in mess abouts, but damn, any player to do that during a game. Mo pete doing it with a foul thats awsome.

    But is it just me or rip is really really skinny ?

    He is really skiny, and I know about skinny at 6'0 and 135. I think it was a close shot becuase of hte guys standing around him. Its still very impressive

    Was Rip fouled while taking that shot? Most likely someone slapped him in the face/forehead and the headband slipped down.

    Sick shot, but from there it doesn't look like he was fouled. Looks like a clean shot to me.

    That's pretty good, a sign of a good shooter. But to be honest, when you really look at it, it's not that hard. If you have a clear visual of the rim and when you shot, well at least when I shoot once I get a good visual of the rim, the rim is not longer in my mind it's all on how I release the ball. Such as in how, soft/far. It's still a pretty good shot nonetheless.

    Nice, but I liked Mo Pete's shot better.
