I nominate Green for his nice floater tonight.
Danny Green's floaters have been terrible, all year, definitely one of the moves he needs to prioritize during the off-season..
this could be even worse then the video where dwade stole ginobilis manustep, renamed it 1,2 step and passed it off as his
Danny Green is allergic to finishing in the paint...![]()
Is Tony Parker responsible for all the new age point guards having floaters? I remember when Parker first started going to the floater consistently, the only person commentators could compare him to was Mark Jackson . . .
+1
I have pretty much count a miss everytime he does a floater. I give him props at least getting to the lane, but sometimes he doesn't finish strong that's why he uses the floater. At the same time he has a weird release to it, and seems to give it too much arc.
Green shots floaters like he's been practicing on the moon are something. It ain't nothing for him to miss a floater by five feet.
TP definitely was the innovator
theres a few tp clones coming out now
i remember watching jeff teague in the playoffs last year and he had the exact same playstyle
one commentator even called him tony parker 2.0
I think Shawn Marion and Antawn Jamison both have very nice floaters.
Off the top of my head Parker, Rondo, Rose, Jamison, Wade and Marion have reliable floaters
Maybe because they call tony parker's shot a tear drop? Tony does his floater in a very different way.
Since we're on the subject of floaters, I nominate DeJuan Blair. His Whataburger diet produces lots of chunky floaters.
The advantage of the floater is you can get closer to the rim and then loft it over the shot blockers. The other options are going for the strong finish or stopping before you reach the rim and shooting a jumpshot.
I have to admit, my current skill set is more geared to the DeJuan Blair Whataburger floater than the Tony Parker floater....
I'm not bragging when I say my floaters never hit the rim.
Just sayin'!![]()
Without a doubt. 04 season was when he started shooting it with regularity, right?
Manu is responsible for the euro step in the NBA too, people used to bout it, now dwyane wade does it every game
I think it was earlier than that. He had no way to finish in the paint as a rookie in 2001. I think he busted it out the next year.
I also lol'ed @ no tony considering he essentially pioneered it
I don't know about the NBA but I dropped one in the toilet the other day took me about 10 flushes to get that sucker down. Would not go without a fight.
Approved.
Best floaters = the one's that Bonner leaves in the toilet after each game.
As Spurs fans, we should appreciate Gary Neals floater. His is money.
