Around SBN: Explaining Jeremy Lin's Early, Surprising Success

C.C.'s breaking ball

Is it a curve ball, slider, or a slurve? Or does it sometimes look more like a curve and then sometimes more like a slider or slurve?

Also what's the range of speed of Westbrook's slider? Does he throw it much?

Answers would be well appreciated.               .                                         .                     .                       .

I've always heard slurve.  That pretty much covers all three options.

Re: C.C.'s breaking ball
I'M not sure what CC calls his breaking ball, but Byrd's renamed his the Vulcan Ball of Death.
