... on many of his long 3s, especially when he's shooting on the move.
You'll never hear any commentator advocate for snapping off a shot with a flick release (so, I assume, he can keep his body balanced while he's in space). Any color commentator knows that if they were so much as to mention that movement in anything but the harshest of language, they would get excortiated by the internet. So they just keep they mouths and marvel when it goes in so frequently.
Just like commentators never mention the dozen of times per game players leave their feet to pass and it pays off brilliantly.
The way players play the game changes (almost always for the better, or we wouldn't see them on TV) but the broadcasters don't change with the times.
Bitd, tennis players were forbidden from leaving their feet to hit the ball by their coaches.
But every pro player today does exactly that on almost every topspin forehand they hit.
