It's a wonderful, wonderful video, and a really great memory of the universally beloved Bol, who passed away in 2010. Everything is perfect: the way Bol barely leaves the ground for his jumpers, and takes them from well beyond the arc; the way the announcers go from impressed to incredulous to delirious; the increasing buzz from the crowd each time Bol pulls up; the reactions from players on both teams, especially Bol's close friend and old teammate Charles Barkley.

The talking stick, also called a speaker's staff, is an instrument of aboriginal democracy used by many tribes, especially those of indigenous peoples of the Northwest Coast of North America. The talking stick may be passed around a group or used only by leaders as a symbol of their authority and right to speak in public.

That is about the worst shooting form I have ever seen. Reminds me of Jamaal Wilkes.

That's what you got out of it? Who cares. Bol wasn't playing basketball for his shooting. And Wilkes could really score.

Sorry. I wasn't trying to be over critical. Should have said something positive to go along with the other observation. Its really one of my faults. I look at stuff like that and see details rather than the overall intent and idea. Apologies.
