    But I agree OMR - Tmac's shot is way too flat, esp lately.

    The best shots are the one's with good arc - Rafer has been pretty good at getting better arc this year.

    Juwan looks better this year than last, but occasionally goes flat.

    Padge and Head seem to get good arc.

    Now can we talk about who can make a layup?

    Vspan
    Hayes
    most consistent

    Rafer and Head need to improve a lot. Esp Rafer. I would like to see Head move more the rack.

    Others all seem spotty at times. Surprised as a team we always seem to shoot layups worse than our opponents.

    Maybe VG should lay off more D practice and try some intrasquad layup shooting in a game type setting?

    Also Yao should still dunk more when he is up tight on the basket - none of this namby pamby layups or short jumpers which he miraculously misses too much.

    1. Novak
    2. Padgett
    3. Head
    4. Yao
    5. Battier

    These are the only players I consider shooters based on their shooting form and ball arcs.

    Clearly if you read what I wrote

    I wasnt talking about accuracy

    IMO I think Tmac's shot looks better, not talking about fundamentals, purely on a look-wise perspective..I think Tmac gets the nod

    I guess we will have to agree to disagree

    I would rather shoot like Tmac than Novak

    Plus Tmac's fadeaway looks real good...I havnt seen NOvak do a fade away yet...
