Is it even a jumper at that point?

Neither did Laimbeer. No need to jump if you’re that tall unless you have someone like Mobley on you.

Big Z used to jump really high on his jumpers tho. Having that leaping ability never hurt

The legendary Cavaliers big man jump shooter was Mark “The Hammer” West. Guy was money from the outside (Buttcoin).

Or maybe this team just needs some damn spacing so our bigs can actually operate

This and the fact that teams aren't letting him and DG do their pick and roll/alley-oop game for easy buckets.

Larry Bird used to say you couldn't slide a piece of paper under him when he shot a jumper. As long as they go in, I don't care if Jarrett rolls it up there while on one knee.

What is it called then if it is a jumper without the jump?

A set shot. Common in the olden days, 1950s and before.

An "er".

From what I rememer TD barely jumps on his signature bankshot..... that was a sweetshot, I'd imagine not jumping confuses the defender too as they are so used to most players jumping and releasing their shot at the peak of their juump

of course i jest on the "jumper" thing. another guy who barely gets any lift is dirk with his signature turn around fade away shot. and no, it can't be called a "set shot" either. being 7 foot tall negates the need to get any lift on that shot.

This guy has been getting owned by every center he's played for the past month. Terrible defensively and his shitty passes are a guaranteed turnover. No way is he untouchable, his play dropped off a cliff last year and now it's happening again.

So he's human.

Last year he had a concussion so I understand, but recently he's been atrocious defensively. Hopefully he gets it together.

He’s been bad ever since he mysteriously missed a couple games a few weeks ago with an undisclosed illness.
