    T-Mac.Kobe is a great shooter, don't get me wrong, but Kobe isn't the guy to be a perimeter shooter.He sure CAN make perimeter shots, though.

    I've seen TMac his a regular jumper 7 feet behind the arc. It was in 03-04, against the Lakers ironically. TMac has more range than Kobe, but Kobe is a better midrange shooter

    T-Mac.. Kobe is a better fadeaway 3 pt shooter.. but T-Mac can hit those off balance 10 ft behind the arc shots.

    You know what before this season i would've said tmac.But i personally have seen kobe hit like 10 30 footers this season. Kobe's range has become waaaaaaay better this season.

    TMac. Kobe has made some long 3 pointers but Tmac has made his hair share of 30 footers. The guy has great range.

    T-Mac definetely. He can really knock down some three's as where Kobe is more of a in close jump shooter/dunker/lay-up[er]! lol

    we all say t-mac 'cause we've seen it more often.. and he wouldn't take that shot if he knew he couldn't make it. so i have to say t-mac.tracy mcgrady's shot is ugly though.

    Ugly? I think it is pretty. Smooth and linedrives right through the basket.

    Tracy actually does have a few bad habits. on better basketball shooting, they went over bad habits and he has the same one i do. He flicks his thumb with his off hand to get more power on the shot. If you look closely, you can see it.

    Yeah, but it still looks nice as he shoots it. He bends his arms past 90 degrees and fades away, but it looks really smooth and flowing.

Smooth and linedrives right through the basket.</div>*hemhem* a shooter like me can tell if a shot is ugly or good looking.nah i'm just playing but you like the look of his shot? i mean.. take the ball away. and then look at him shoot. it's so ugly. even ask reggie miller. one of the greatest shooters.well i base a good looking shot as the form, shoulders square to the basket, shooting hand under the ball and the guide hand forming a T with the thumbs. when you release you flick the wrist and pose, making sure to do the "hand in the cookie jar" thing. when you jump you should be landing where you started jumping.at least that's what they told me. [​IMG] lets see.. some good looking shooters have to be kyle korver (of course), ray allen (of course), michael redd, cuttino mobley.. and every other left hander.. oh yea and mike dunleavy.

    Don't get me wrong, his form is far from perfect. But, it just looks pretty, despite all the shooting flaws. It just has that smoothness and effortlessness to it that makes it look cool. And when the ball goes through the rim it always hits back rim because it is a line drive, so it makes a cool little entrance through hoop (can't explain it, the net looks like a Nike swoosh when it goes through).

    Are you sure mike Dunleavy is left handed?And Michael Redd's form is actually disgusting. He brings it close to behind his head.I would say cuttino mobley has perfect form. Ben Gordon also has very good form.

    Ray Allen to me has the most incredible form in the NBA. Another guy who's ofrm is pure money:Mo PeteHe's just left handed, making it look weird sometimes, but take a close look, and it is straight up textbook

    I am going to go with T-Mac. Kobe is a good shooter but Tracy is just better ranged than Kobe.
