    Thats what I thought so too..then I picture someone jumping towards me taking a shot...if you jump left to your opponent you'll tend to lean more left therefore your shoulder should be more to the left and elbow should be even further from the opponent...unless you stick it out. thats why I think it may be intentional and like to see the vid.

    I don't think dragic is that kind of player...they seemed to have a good rapport with each other during the pre-season games against the spurs.

    I watched an old game from last season when the rockets played the knicks (pre-linsanity) and when lin got some playing time (it was a blow out) and went near the houston bench, dragic and some of the guys were whistling at him and trying to crack him up a little :)

    Why would the title offend the Houston Fans? I don't get it. I can ONLY see it pissing off the Phoenix fans or JLin haters...

    Give it a rest. Why would someone who doesn't like Jeremy have a problem with him taking a shot to the face?

    The title isn't offending any Houston fans. The title strictly implies you are seeking attention. As in, you are an attention w**** and want attention. Did I dumb that down enough for you? :eek:

    When you’re trying to create contact, it doesn’t matter if you’re left or right hand, you lean to the defender. From what I remember, Dragic did intentionally have his elbow sticking out more than his normal shooting form. But to say he intentionally trying to hurt Lin is a stretch. How the hell did he know Lin’s face will be there?
