To clarify, my original post is calling his shot a strength
Not necessarily his "mechanics." No one cared about that, he's been an incredible shooter from his rookie season

Sorry guys, but there is a night and day difference between Leifson and Seljaas.

Good observation. Looks like a good high school shot but not

Then again, some guys make it work. I just don't think it will happen though.

Horrible mechanics, yes. But he made them consistently in HS, could be a pleasa

Are we talking about making open shots or creating open shots?

Leifson has been hitting in practice too but yeah i agree, you don't just find

That may be true. Seljaas wasn't really Seljaas either until we saw him do it in

Good point.

It'll take him half the season to get up to speed, but it took Seljaas a while.

Man, Seljaas has an absolutley pure stroke. We're gonna miss him this year.

I agree they're not the same, but that's not the reason why they won't be

I would have said height and length were the biggest differences coming into

Leifson is no Seljaas but he's been consistently hitting that shot all summer. Hats of to BYU coaches for not trying to

Yup

He might be more like a Mike Rose who did something like this I his first

He is not a good defender like seljaas and not as good at shooting

Seljaas was NOT a good defender. He worked his butt off & got better.

Not that he's Curry, but isn't that what they used to say about Curry's shot?

Which part. That he had terrible shot mechanics?
Shteve

Uhh, no. He's somewhat re-written the book on mechanics, but his form is...

Find me one article where he was criticized for bad form

"Unorthodox" is probably a better adjective than "bad." Here's a bunch, though..

I understand and agree with you... my original point was just that maybe Liefson

if it goes in I dont think the coaches give a darn about his shot style

The 0 for 7 at the end was somewhat understandable considering he played

How are your shot mechanics?
