I shoot free throws like Marion, I can't seem to sink them with the same form as my normal jumper, which is nothing like Marion's. They may be free but they aren't necessarily easy.
Thing is he has a shitty shooting form which converts 81.3% career Ft percent higher in playoffs. Which ironically is a higher % than D wade .769 and Lbron .759
@lillolboy Rick Barry had underhanded free throw, and Jamaal Wilkins' one isn't textbook either (search 'Red on roundball). Then you have some that fakes the layup on top before releasing... if it suits you, and it gets the result...
I pretty much shoot like him. Thats what happens when your 4 years old and shooting on a 10 ft hoop. I never had the little kids hoops, or a 8 ft hoop or anything I always shot on 10 ft. The main thing is, is being consistant. I shot almost 50 % from 3 in this league I played In, and it was mainly all ex college basketball players so it wasn't with people that wasn't any good. I think I have a quicker release this way, and still have rotation on the ball, but my coaches still hated me lol!
@38speshul I love people who comes on here being a tough guy behind a computer screen. You probably don't even play sports your just hear to run your mouth. Keep talking shit maybe someone will care!
@lucm159 it's not like he's a guard. his jumpshot isn't that important. he mostly drives and draws fouls. and he always shoots high percentage shots, and he can defend any position. and is a solid rebounder. and he's insanely athletic.
@matanone His FT% when he was with the Suns was good. Shaq has a better looking shot, but he's barely 50%. Marion has an ugly shot, but that doesn't matter as long as he makes it.
i know it works for him, but still how do even end up shooting like that? I swear if I could ask one question to any nba player, I'd ask Shawn why his shot is so fucked up.
he probably developed that himself growing up. i think he shoots like that because he finds it comfortable and it works. bit like michael redd how he flings it over his head. it just works
look at his release... he doesnt have that ideal flick at the end that makes the "goose neck." it was talked about during this years three point shoot out
cause i was so bent out of shape when writing a comment. how about you do at least some critical thinking and see that i was engaging in a conversation with someone... 4 MONTHS AGO.
Its sad to see 7 footers in the nba scoring 3's while people like shawn marion and chuck hayes who's heights are perfect for the gaurd position cant shoot properly.
yea? really ?how manny guards his height dunks like him, and gets a rebounds like he does, you should watch some other vides of marion,definatelly! matrix rulezz!!!!!!!
So your basically arguing that you shouldnt be complete??? You either rebound and dunk or you either shoot perfectly but cant do anything else?? And dude, 90 % of nba players above 6 feet can dunk. Failed argument. Not saying he sucks, just proving you wrong.

The four biggest factors for free throws are no side to side motion, use your finger tips, lots of arch on the shot and lots of backspin.
Marion has all of the above.
