Players who like to go glass

[Beluba]

Doods, we're trying to come up with a list of players who like to shoot bank shots (eg. Duncan & Wade.) Are there other players you've noticed who should be on this list? Thanks for the help.

Shaq likes to slam the ball off the glass with his little one handed jumper/hook....

Duncan..


But are you guys going to make it Random, or button controlled like 2K... I would prefer the latter....

Kobe Bryant
Lebron James

I know Kobe likes to sometimes use the glass on Mid-Range jumpers. Also I was watching Lebron play the Lakers and saw him use the glass a couple of times.

To be honest you see more veteren players use the glass more then the younger players but I would like to see players that are underneath the hoop use the glass 100% of the time.

Re: Players who like to go glass

Most everyone in the NBA uses glass, it just depends on the situation.

The 2 obvious are Duncan and Wade

Duncan is more of a use the glass off a jumper from the side.
Wade is similar but he also uses the glass while driving and creating contact or fading away, Kobe is similar in this the way he uses glass.

Everything else would just be, and should be used in context... its not really a "Oh Ben Gordon "uses glass" because i seen him do it 3 games ago"... he just used it because thats what that particular situation called for.

I also agree with rockchisler, its more of a veteran move as well... but even then not all veterans do it often.

Come to think of it does anyone in the game use the glass on lay ups?I was just thinking how Rose does alot of lay ups off the glass.But i don't think i seen anyone Lay up the ball off the glass?

Re: Players who like to go glass

Bosh uses the glass once and while. Not anywhere near Duncan. But he does have that shot in his arsenal. He usually only shoots when he faces up his man and goes straight up and down. He doesnt shoot it while fading away or spinning off like Tim Duncan does.

Are you guys implenting some kind of use of backboard rating

Re: Players who like to go glass

Dwight Howard has been working on a bank shot for the rare chance he doesn't dunk.

yes. and sorry for the confusion... we're looking for a list of guys who tend to go glass when shooting jumpers (obviously, from valid locations.) glass usage for layups is already being addressed.

We will most likely make it contextual.

I dont mind contexual as long as players that do it in real life do it in the game, I dont want to see Ramon Sessions or Nicholas Batum doing it every other time down the court.
