     who in your opinion has the best jump shot form in the NBA, NCAA, or even at the local gym you play at. It can be anyone. (however if you do choose someone you personally know, like at your gym, do choose someone from the NBA or NCAA as well.)

    ill start. 

    my favorite shooting form has got to be STEVE NASH! love his jumper. and yes he is my favorite player tied with stephen curry.

    I’m gonna go with dirk, not just because he’s been killin it in the playoffs, but he’s got every shot you can think of… Fadeaways, turnarounds over either shoulder, three’s, even those one-legged jumpers he’s mastered and it doesn’t matter who’s in his face. Ray Allen is the best 3pt shooter ever, but dirk has the total package

    Allen for sure, he gets such good elevation on his jump shot, and really shoots with his legs, rather than just his arms, which I remember Ray saying a lot of kids do these days.

    I journalist once approached Ray Allen and said to him:

    "Ray, everyone in the world thinks that you have the best looking jumper of all time, but I’ve got a problem with that. Great Shooters have rotation on their shot — you have none"

    Ray Allen: "Why does the ball need to rotate?"

    Journalist: "What kind of silly question is that. You should know better than anyone, back spin on the ball will give the ball a better opportunity to go in when it hits the rim."

    Ray Allen: "My shots don’t hit the rim!!!"

    Love it!!!

    I always loved Jeff Hornacek’s shot. He may not have have been the best of all time, but it was a sweet shot.

    Ray Allen, good form, good footwork, squares up well, doesn’t float too much,  good elevation, sweat release and follow thru.

    I hate shots like Boozer’s, that take the ball too far back and sling the ball, terrible form.

    It has to be Ray Allen. He can literally hit any shot on the floor at a high percentage. Dirk can too, but I give the edge to Allen because his quick release and elevation give him the most lethal 3 pt shot in the league. No game is over when Allen’s team is down by 3 or less.

    Others:

    Dirk, Nash, Curry (obvious)

    Al Horford (midrange only)

    Anthony Morrow

    Matt Bonner

    @ Taylor. Yes, Matt Bonner has one of the best jumpers. He said who has the BEST jumper, not the one you jerk off to on youtube.
