don't know if anyone else watched this live but dirk shouldn't have made that final round. he got away with a shot after the buzzer sounded. ray should have won.
Reggie Miller said shooters get tired on their 3rd rack. Damn if Ray had made at least 3 of those shots on the 3rd rack (or one, plus a money-ball), this contest woulda been all his. But oh well, he's already won it before. Dirk owned this thing (Nowitski is my dude!)
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
damn, he shoot just like me. Weird...maybe that was my problem last year. Cause I'd jump to damn high and some of my shots would be off. But damn, I'll remember this...lol
yep it is one of the best in the NBA. can you believe (actually this isnt surpising TBH cause people on youtube are idiots) some people on youtube think they can shoot better than ray allen? ridiculous right? then again, they are also the same people that think james white is going to be better than michael jordan ever was lol.
he is using his left thumb to push or spin the ball, and the right hand he is just shooting with, I don't know if that's two- handed shot, but we can say so ;)
dude your right, bcuz im studying and practicing ray's stroke, you have to use your left thumb to be able to put some more force to it, but he does not spin in just push it....
your opinion about ray's stroke is right and i agree with it, but naitsno's opinion about his left thumb is also right, he pushes it with his left thumb but not spin it to put more force to it, it just look like he's using both hands bcuz he's been shooting the ball like that for years that he doesnt need much force from his left thumb anymore..
well, dont you think that 4 left hand fingers are enough force to stabalize the ball? he kinda needs that left thumb to balance the ball by pushing it.
I agree 100% with u. if u use left thumb the ball will spin sideways, thats how i used to shoot because i didnt have much strength but i got more strength and i shoot only with my right hand
you do know the nba's 3 point line is further than college line which is furthur than high school. i bet that if you take one or two steps back from your high school line youll miss 75% of those
THE most beautiful jumpshot I have ever seen. He shouldve been in this years 3 point contest. He struggled and still shot .39% from three and he shoots a lot of them. Kapono barelely plays and Kobe wasnt taking/making as much as he had in the past. Boobie gibson deserved to be there but so did Ray Ray. Hopefully We will get to see him in next years 3 point contest...
Fake, he missed some.

if he pushes the ball with hes left hand thumb...hes shot is gonna get messed up
