Michael Redd

From Dennis Velasco, for About.com

Redd has one of the more beautiful shots in the NBA (left-handed too!) as it looks as fluid as water. Thanks to that poetic shot, Redd is one of the NBA's more dangerous scorers, mostly and naturally, from the perimeter. He took over as the main scorer for the Milwaukee Bucks when Ray Allen took his shot to the Seattle SuperSonics.
