Sticky throttle

So this started happening about 2 months ago, the throttle doesn't stick when I let off it, it feels like its stick when I push on it when I am accelerating from a stop. could it be my TB, or TPS, to much carbon build up in the TB? its just when accelerating everything else is fine going down the road and my foot is on the gas but its just getting back on it feels like something sticks and i cant figure it out, so let me know your thoughts are on this if anyone else has had this problem

undo the cable from the throttle body, then move the throttle by hand and make sure it moves freely while still remembering it is spring loaded. then, move the gas pedal while the cable is disconnected and make sure cable and gas pedal move freely. that should help find the problem.
