Jmood, relax and take your happy pills. Everytime your on here you have something to bitch about. It must be that time of month, so go put your fat pants on and have some chocolate.

God, its so easy to tell. You see a bunch of girls in sweat pants on campus....

jason kidd & vince carter (does he kiss the ball now?)

yeah J-Kidd still do the Kiss thingy, he stopped it a while back last season but his percentage dropped so he went back to it and ever since it's been pretty inconsistent.....Vince still kisses the ball

I always laughed at Larry Johnson's, because it always seemed like he was going to lose the gum he was chewing.

When I shot free throws, I bent down really low and rose up to take the shot. No idea why, it was just comfortable, and I made like 85% of them, so it worked. I'm sure it's the same with all of the NBA guys, they find something that is really comfortable and shoot that way.

Van Exel said at Cincy that he did it that way becuase he couldn't shoot close shots. I think he was kidding, but he's comfortable, and makes a good amount of ft's so who cares?

Hornacek's "wiping of the face" was actually his way of waving to his kids.

You don't think its arrogant he shoots a free throw from 18 feet instead of the given 15 feet? Why not adjust and shoot...............eh forget it. I'm arguing with jmood. Nevermind.

When you play 21, that's where ft are shot from so I would assume he does it because of that.

Gilbert Arenas by a country mile. It takes a full 10 seconds before he actually shoots it, but will flick out a 3 pointer in 0.2 seconds falling sideways that always seems to drop in.

Re: Who's got the most gimmicky free throw routine?

do you guys have a routine?

I don't really have a routine, I just straight up go to the line and bust those shots.

-I do three slow dribbles, looking down at the ball, legs bent slightly

-Line the ridges up properly in my hands

-Look up at the basket and do a smooth up and release motion

-Ball swishes through the hoop
