My point to the OP was that the players arms moving up has nothing to do with the habitual shooting motion. I know a TON of guys who believe this is true  |
Fair enough. I'm not sure I agree that arms moving upward is
never an indication of the shooting motion. You have to make a subjective decision about the intent of the player and arms moving upward (while holding the ball) could definitely help make the decision.
