somebody found a strange quirk in Lillards jump shot

What got me is how fricking easy it is for him to shoot the ball that distance.

That was a beautiful shot. He sprinted like a long jumper and his legs were like a slingshot. shot it more with his lower torso than his shoulders or arms. Pretty cool technique

I am of the notion that most of his misses are length of shot not aim. I think this might actually help him direct the shot. The ball is already moving towards the basket then his fingers guide it. My shot was much improved after I nearly destroyed my middle finger during football practice.

My middle finger got bent backwards and from then on it flexed more and my shots went straight. I almost always got front rim on my misses afterwards. Basically I got a more even contact with the ball.

Breaking down tape of a game w had a few years ago, there was a kid on the other team who did something similar. He was also a pretty good shooter from deep, so maybe there is something to it?

You know who had one of the quirkiest Js around, that Ferengi lookin' Reggie Miller!

Keith/Jamal Wilkes would bring the ball behind the plane of his shoulder/head (making it impossible to block from the front), wrap his big hand around it in a circular motion to cock the gun, and fire. John Wooden said, the results were so good, that the greatest fundamentals coach didn't mess with it.

As long as it goes in like it does I'm even fine if he shoots it from his asshole
