Ugly Shot!

Sometimes, I wonder how some players make shots with their unorthodox forms. There's no other way to explain it other than they're used to it. Here are some of the more nonconventional shooting forms in the NBA.

I have provided this video before. But look how ugly that form is by Tim Hardaway. Spike Lee even points out to it. Ugly knuckleball action.

Joakim Noah's is somewhat similar. Thanks, @khoffman1313

Bill Cartwright shoots high. WAY HIGH.

And... well... Shawn Marion... I don't even know what to call that. But it goes in.

When you want to talk about freethrow shooting... well, Chuck Hayes' freethrow is like Charles Barkley's golf swing. I'm not sure if he actually shoots like that when the action is on but he doesn't seem to shoot further than 5 feet, anyway.

I'm sure there are more players with strange shooting forms... but those are the worst that I can find at the moment. But, hey, if it goes in, then you can't complain. But then again, Chuck Hayes...

UPDATE: @NBAplayerlolz with the contribution. How about Anthony Mason? Check 1:36 in this music vid with the repetitive melody.

Follow me on Twitter. My name is @TheNoLookPass. At least, MY shot looks normal.

    I'd give (dis)honorable mention to Kevin Martin:

    Ronnie Brewer's is pretty funky as well. Can't find a good vid of it, though.
  • On one side, Kevin Martin's shot looks normal. It looks like he does everything right. But on the other side, it just looks funky. His shot looked very normal on one of the videos of it.

    I haven't paid too much attention to Ronnie Brewer.

    TYRESE Evans also has a pretty funky shot.
