Shawn Marion makes me sad

Okay, if you knew me, (and I am assuming no one does) then you would know I am a huge basketball fan. The most beautiful thing in the world to me is the sight of a pure shooter shooting a jump shot.

Sorry, Eva Mendes, you're #2 on my list.


Anyways, back to my original thought. Right now, I am watching the New Orleans Hornets play the Miami Heat. A tear came to my eye while watching the game. Not because the game was that good, or because I had something in my eye, (which is my usual excuse), but because of Shawn Marions disgusting jump shot. Shawn Marion has one of the worse jump shots you will ever, ever see. Typically, you don't see jump shots that ugly outside of youth basketball camps, much less in the NBA. How Marion actually gets that atrocity of a jump shot to go in the basket and not get it stuffed back in his face will always be a mystery to me. Right now, I am calling out all of his middle school and high school coaches for not fixing that abomination earlier in his career.

But kudos to you Shawn, for making millions of dollars in the NBA, and having a jump shot that looks worse than mine.

True, true ...

However, I've learned a thing or two.

The players who got the down-right ugliest jump shots ever actually makes baskets often, more than the beautiful shooters make. It's a mystery, but it works ...
