  Ray Ray and Klay Thompson, both have the exact same form on each shot, amazing.
  Kyle Korver, Steph Curry, and I like Ben McLemore.
  As for the old school, Im going with Peja, what a shooting form he had.

  Actually Kobe’s shot is extremely flat (and I’m a Kobe fan). So is KG’s… way non textbook. Both work OK but those are shooting forms I wouldn’t teach kids at all.

I think I underated Kentavious Caldwell Pope, he should be number 1 in my list, because not only is the motion is perfect, the actual rainbow he throws together with the splashing noise, footwork and hand movement after releasing the ball.

My all time favorite shooting stroke was Larry Bird – just right of his head and effortless. I swear he could stand at half court and shoot that, change the arc, stone cold shooting assasain

Although he hasn’t panned out in the nba my favorite stroke to watch was always Jon Diebler. It just always seemed like it was going in whether he was 5 feet away or 35 feet away.
NBA wise though, my list would be:
1. Steph Curry- so smooth and so quick. 2. Ray Allen- I couldn’t tell you if a shot was from this season or 2000. So consistent. 3. Jimmer Freddette. 4. Kobe. 5. Jamal Crawford.

Chuck Hayes free throw shooting. Easily.
But on a serious note, I could watch Steve Nash pull-up off the dribble for days. His shot is beautiful. And watching Dirk operate is just awesome as well.

No love for Melo? Every part of his body seems squared up to the basket when he shoots.
Top 5 goes like this
1. Steph- So pure or a shot, watching him in person his trajectory of the ball looked like it had no chance of missing
2.Melo- already said why above
3.Damian Lillard- dude just flicks his wrist and it goes in
4.JJ Redidk- straight up form
5.Ray Allen-Never seen someone get so much elavation so effortlessly

I’ve always loved Joe Johnson’s shot. Really smooth and always squared his shoulders and it was usually after shaking a defender.
