Looked great with zero hesitation, like the type of game winners/last shots many great players have taken and made very Jordan-esq. I was thinking and realized though, he doesn't try those often.
Normally he likes to pound the ball deep in the backcourt and drain the clock at the start of a possession, than while still on the ball make a move usually wants a drive but if his defender is quicker sometimes settles for a shot. If he can catch and shoot like that, why aren't more plays written up for him to do so? It makes the defense have to chase him when he flashes across the floor for an open look. He doesn't have as good a first step as he did when he was young, but he still is a runaway train when he's got momentum so wouldn't that be the best way for him to get open looks on shots?
