Did his form change all that radically, or was it a case of repetition building muscle memory?

Also, I seem to remember hearing something about Larry Bird having to recraft his shot after he broke a finger.

Just saying, learning a new shooting technique isn’t unheard of. It’s not horribly common, but it has happened before.

I think about guys like Shawn Marion and Kevin Martin. If changing shot mechanics was easy - they would have done it.
