You can see Jeff’s here

Nash has his FT routine, and licks his fingers dribbling down court.

Not sure what I am missing

Ahh my bad. I guess there are exceptions. Paul Pierce is still wrong. Bust out 2010 and get Pierce to the line. That’s a perfect representation of his style!

Who would care about removing basketball mechanics and player signature animations in an NBA game?

Sarcasm? I’d assume? Lol. I know I’m being nitpicky.

I’ll check on Ewing and Cartwright, pretty sure they’re not right

No worries, I was just unclear as to why you thought every animation had been removed because Paul Pierce’s had been altered. I’m familiar with the 2010 animation you’re referencing. It hasn’t been in for a while now.

PP has always been unorthodox.

You can see here that he doesn’t do his usual exaggerated stance at the line.

Others you’ll find he does. Maybe it was a design choice like removing Kendrick Perkins exaggerated jumper because it’s something they don’t always do..

I think maybe the source of some your confusion is the fact that the free throw animations that display in the Signature Edits menu don't show the whole routine. Hornacek, for instance, still touches his face in game, but it doesn't show that in the Signature Edit screen, where it skips straight to the shooting form.

TlI think you knocked it out of the park. That's probably what happen here. I really thought this thread was about release timing at first . Which I have had a little beef with this year. But I'm not going to live I've enjoyed making the throws this cycle more then any other. It's not too easy but also not too hard. It's a weird feeling.

Ahh good find. I think he put his foot back when he won th4 championship in 08. I’ll have to look at some real games. He must have changed it up later on. I wonder if his old free throw stance is available somewhere in the free throw edits somewhere.

Anyone who knows Patrick Ewing. His routine and release is not right at all.
