I feel the opposite way man. Ray Ray's shot is almost perfect. It's so fun to play with. My only complaint is Pierce's shot. There hasn't been a single game that has gotten it right.

Pierce actually has two different jumpshots, one is like the sig in Live and the other sometimes he takes alittle step forward with his right leg then he goes up for the jumpshot.

The interesting thing is... Pierce actually came to EA for mocap and that's his actual data.

I'd love to hear Moses' response.

Wow. For some reason it seems sort of a fast release for Pierce. It also seems like he's not getting up under the ball enough when preparing for the shot.

That boggles the mind a bit, but do you remember it animating that way on your computer?

Here is the video of Paul Pierce motion capturing for them...

My response is it's not the way he shoots in real life, at least to me, someone who watches him night in night out. He barely gets off the ground when he shoots, and he kind of puts the ball in front while he lets it go. I just feel like in video games it's difficult to see the actual release point.

He crouches over, that's what I'm trying to say. That's not part of the game.

The 0:27 second mark of Haval's video is what Pierce himself gave them.
