Message: [QUOTE="BBallF, post: 3516923, member: 10435"] A pure jump shot is one where the release is while you are suspended in the air. CW has one, Crystal has one and Feesa is probably the best example. Even Liv’s fall away is a jump shot. Megan would shoot it only when she was under the basket and I don’t see many of those in the WNBA on put backs or drive moves because of the size and athleticism underneath. From 6 to 15 feet she would shoot a modified version of her three. Why do you think she underperformed against the Big 3? It was a top flight defender and size underneath and the lack of her ability to create her own shots off the bounce. The most common and best shot off the bounce, with a pick for example is a jump shot. Lobo says she is the best shooter in the draft and I agree but the defense in the pros is a lot different and open 3s are not that easy to come by. There are a lot of 2/3 players there who are bigger and stronger than her. My point is that she does not have a complete game like Feesa for example and the extra year would have given her that if she continued working. [/QUOTE]
