Peter Vescey describes Billups jumper as unorthodox actually "an ugly corkscrew" 
was the term he used. I haven't been able to watch any of the pre-season games 
and was wondering if any of you have observed that. Is Billups a bust 
technically? or can he do some things well? Could somebody who has watched him
give a frank appraisal of his skills. Heck otherwise trade him to Denver for the 
player we all wanted Battie. - Mishra
