Without exception, each shot by Nikoloz Tskitishvili floated softly through the air before disappearing into the bottom of the net.
Arc, net. Arc, net.
Perfection? Not quite.
The net spanned about 10 feet on all sides and surrounded a regulation basketball standard that the Denver Nuggets purchased at Wal-Mart. Make or miss, the contraption spit the ball back to Tskitishvili as he worked on his shot after practice Monday.
``It's my decision to practice more to get better,'' he said. ``I don't want to stay on this level. I want to go up and go up.''
