For the last couple of weeks every time i'm watching a game i'm always wondering what happened to KP's bank shot that he was so good at. He's really good at using the glass and for the first month he was using it all the time but i haven't seen him using it much lately except every once in a while so do you think the coaches are trying to get him to use it less for some reason or he's just not using the glass for some other reason??

He wasn't shooting as well off the glass in recent weeks. I think he overuses that bank shot. His shot is way too nice to need to use the glass from further than the basket area.

His shot hasn't been that great lately though and i think he had a sweet bank shot.

Tim Duncan disagrees with you He believes there's never a bad time to use the bank shot. Inside or Out it's always the right time.

Kristaps has been getting the baLloyd in different spots. The defense is forcing him out of his comfort zone and making him put the ball on the floor. Porzingis still gets his numbers regardless. That's a great sign that he's the real deal. You just can't force Kristaps to do what you want because he's good at everything

Tim Duncan always had a very mechanical shot. It wasn't pretty. KP has a beautiful jumper and a soft touch. His shot is too nice to use the glass. You won't see a lot of great shooters using the glass very often. It's like aiming for 2 targets instead of one. KP looks much better when he is aiming for the basket instead of the backboard. Sometimes he seems to get stuck deciding when to use it. Just put the ball in the basket, and there will be no guesswork involved.
