Coaches need to teach them to use the back board. I remember Dale

Solomon used it all the time, and he was great with it. It gives you a little more wiggle room on the shot. Straight shots need to be more perfect.

Scottie Pippen was the most consistent bank shot specialist I've ever seen**

You have to call the bank and the players just don't want to do that.**

San, thank you. I asked the question, because agree with "wiggle Room."**

I also think you don't need as much " touch : on your shot, you can shoot

Watch old film of Havlicek, he was a master of using the backboard.**

Doom Haynes of Memphis used the glass a lot too.**

Shooting the ball off the backboard just isn't sexy.

HOFer, 5x champion and 15x all star Tim Duncan thinks it's sexy!

And shooting an 8-footer straight in is?**
Pylons • 01/09/25 09:31 AM ET
