That Bill Cartwright comment went over alot of heads 😁

[@UNDERGROUNDSKOOPTV]

This is the closest jumpshot to Rashard Lewis ive seen to man

[@ldk8]

Shooting in game speed is different than shooting in practice. His release point and follow through is exactly the same

[@jojoprocess2820]

You not really saying anything. Shooting in practice doesn't mean you should have a weird hitch where you bring the ball forward. He's proven hes a good shooter tho so theres no reason to get worried about it for now.

[@micho3038]

@@jojoprocess2820yes it does. in practice, he's focusing on form, doing it correctly, doing it slower, all of which affects the shot. in game it's different. it's faster, his mindset is different, and the feel is different. stop thinking too hard about these off-season videos & wait for the season to come back before making judgement calls

[@yvesleveque128]

When you've been shooting a certain way your whole life, in real game speed those mechanics is going to go right back to what it was. Probably is a way of sharpening his mechanics so that the elbow stays tucked in. Trust me that shot that he has isn't going anywhere because of muscle memory

[@yoCBOOGiE]

Kevin Martin & The Matrix shots are different and they got buckets

[@WestbrickFansGotNoBrains]

Tyrese and mikal both had long wingspan so they shot very differently from normal ppl. Ppl with kong wingspan usually struggle with set point or have extreme 2 motion shot. Kd learnt to counter that by putting the ball across the face(kobe highlgihted this) or havw a set point slightly to his left side of his face.

STOP SHOWING YOUR IGNORANCE AND LET BRIDGES PLAY HIS OUTSTANDING GAME 🏀🗽🏀

[@CarlosRodriguez-tk7hv]

not a hitch , more a torque release for spin and control . pure shot.

[@CarlosRodriguez-tk7hv]

notice the hand placement @ waist level prior to shot.

[@citizenx3801]

@@CarlosRodriguez-tk7hv Add a 0.07 mph wind resistance from uncontrolled fans' Arena wave, the ball could deflect about 1/4 inch at 30 feet. Talk about Mikal's 3pt precision. That's Godly. 🙌🏿

[@jojoprocess2820]

Nah thats clearly hitch, especially on the 2nd shot. Has no benefit to his shot but doesn't really matter too much tho since hes proven hes a good shooter

[@Dee-gf7yp]

Terrible take just terrible awful actually if you call that a hitch cause the man shooting flat foot shots show me that man shooting in runs shooting like that you have no footage of that

[@hunnidkray534]

Always been in his shot what are you sayin brotha😂

[@j-us-t_be-in-g]

Bridges has a crazy wingspan, so his shooting form is always going to look weird. This new form looks better. It's much smoother. It looks more clean. His original shooting form a little hitch if you really paid attention to it.

[@nellynel4583]

No worries here. You're focusing on the wrong things.

[@shelladon1044]

Bro dont fix what not broken mikal ...don't sabotage knicks

[@en.4392]

Knix wanna shoot more threes than Boston and the warriors? 😂

[@Junioreality]

It's strange to see a player change their shot to a slower release

[@AdrianScottty]

Lee Brenda Thompson Jeffrey Perez Betty

[@j2dabmusic554]

looks like his shot will get swatted very easily he needs to be wide open

[@jefebeatz184]

Word 😂

[@Bonsai-Sage]

That's a set shot. He's not going to shot like that in any game

[@Lephty17]

Its the same shot..

[@andellbrown1239]

He’s always shot like this. He has long arms.

[@jeffwilson8246]

Definitely a hitch in his shooting form...will struggle to make that with last second shots. Maybe he will use it as a shot fake get defense off theirbfeet and drive by

[@courtlandwilliams4725]

You’ve compared a set shot to and off the dribble shot I believe he always has had that awkward shooting release especial when he's catching and shooting. I do see he is snapping he's rist and using more of a goose neck at the end of his release more compared to season past. But he's shot from watching that full workout video looks improved.

[@40xScope]

Looks like a Sam Perkins style flatfoot jumper. Might be able to create from it or he could be messing around.

[@desmondmckinzie]

bill cartwright im still laughing

[@csy2068]

Noooo 🤦‍♂️
