    Ok Blazer Ben, I can't stand it any more.

    HE'S is a contraction of the two words HE IS .

    The word you have been trying to use is HIS , which is the possessive pronoun you mean to be typing.

    Not trying to be mean or anything, just trying to help you out.

    Yeah I have been noticing that too. Before he used to do it once in a while but now he does it like every shot.

    I do that myself sometimes when I play :)

    TMac seems to have the greatest elevation and hangtime on his jump shots of anyone since Jordan?

    Don't forget the difference between less and fewer.

    I'm not complaining. I love every basket he makes. I don't care if he throws it like a baseball pitcher as long as it goes in. But I just didn't see any greater arc on his shot.

    definitely noticed it. i think it's more of a rhythm thing... and as a couple of people have said before, an elevation thing. the more elevation he gets, the less of an arm shooter he has to be. since he doesn't have to exert as much force with his arms, he has finer control and a "softer" touch... it's something to do w/ the size principle and the recruitment of muscles...

    regardless of the reason, he's shooting better... giving him more opportunities to take it to the basket, not that he's ever had problem w/ that. did you guys see some of those passes down low to deke and hayes last night against the sonics??? and the one step back move against the french rookie?? jeez, just hope his back holds up the rest of the year.
