not to be a stickler Bill but was it not Letestu that shot the puck that MacDonald Blocked. I just have a bet with a buddy of mine on this? Does anybody have a clip of it by chance?

Be the first to admit I now zilch about basketball but how can 2 #1 overall picks not have the ability to shoot the ball? - nastyflyergirl
Fultz could shoot up until he decided to alter his form. They claim it's a shoulder injury, but that's clearly bullpoop.
Simmons shoots with the wrong hand. He's a natural righty, but he emulated his dad who was a lefty.
Simmons is less of a concern because he doesn't need to be a great shooter to be a very good player. Fultz needs to be though.
They're both very young and it takes a long time to develop in the NBA. Sports science is huge in the NBA and has prolonged careers of so many players now. That makes it harder for rookies to make an immediate impact because it raises the level of play all around the league.

Explain to me how Fultz, a natural shooter, (frank)s up his shot so badly in all of a couple months that a month+ with the team can't even fix it. Because it was fine even back in SL. It's revolting to look at with that weird hands high push. I hope the injury has at least something to do with it. Because that's bad if it's bull. It'd be like teaching Laine how to shoot like Voracek.

while the same team has won multiple super bowls and stanley cups a lot of teams feel like they have a legit chance to win and same with baseball. thing I don't like about basketball is you know all of what, 2-3 teams have a chance to win it all?

-Crying about making 250k a year is weird to me. You want to fix society? Make a maximum wage as well as a minimum wage. See the greedy pigs cry about that. - flyer_nutter

It's hard to change a shot that much in such a short period of time too. My guess is he tried to make a slight alteration then things went off the rails.

I read two separite things, no idea if either true. He came intp camp with an alterred shot that he was working on outside the organization. That would be really bothersome. 2) he has a shoulder injury that morphed his shot as he was playing with it and obviously over compensated. 1st shot tonight looked fine despite not going in.

He needs to watch as much video of white people shooting as possible right now.
