You let me know how that impacts his shot and I'll start listening to you.

Wait til yall see how possible 2017 lottery pick (UCLA commit) Lonzo Ball shoots the rock.. he's sure to be a polarizing prospect on Jazzfanz.
Jordan Clarkson was one of the guys with re-worked shot form that created some pre-draft buzz over it yesteryear, To me that guy this draft is clearly Norman Powell.
After thorough review Norman has really worked on the hitch and sped up his release, something thats taken years to develop(just go back and find the HS footage, its ugly). I'm buying what his draft workout was selling.
People hate anytime I use this comparison. Powell reminds me of Qyntel Woods, he's strong as an Ox with quick feet. hich imo the Jazz could use even if he's buried on the bench. Norman's also the type who would run thru a wall for his coach, no questions asked.

With that said, Andy Larsen mentioned on Twitter that Dekker missed quite a few shots. Which shouldn't be surprising, he's not that great of a shooter. He is very versatile though, and is one of the few wings that dunked on WCS this year. He would have excelled in Sloan's offense for sure. I'd play him more at the 4 in this style of offense. Kind of like a Harpring that's better at finishing and more athletic. Not sure if he played football though.

I always liked Powell just cause he was good at getting to the rim, and that usually translates pretty decently.

Hard to buy what u r selling when u compare him to Woods. If I recall he didn't last long in the league.

I do like Powell by the way

With his lack of follow-through consistency as well as that weird arm swinging action afterwards, it would be difficult for him to make consistent 3's in the NBA imo.
2 prospects both misses 3 wide open threes in a row. One has a weird swinging arm action, the other shoots it consistently each time, who would you bet to become a better shooter long term?
Exactly.

My point is he doesn't do that in games. And he's flinging his arms after he releases the ball. That isn't going to affect his shot in any way
It might get him in offensive foul trouble though won't it?

Again, how does swinging his arms afterward affect his shot? You've talked about it so much, that I'm assuming you actually might have an answer this time.
