That’s just my set jump shot. My natural release is much quicker and I actually get much more height off the floorSlow release
Ball leaves your hand lower than your chin
I remember awhile back when I was working in a youth detention center I was observing the kids shooting basketball in the gym. Not an actual game, just shooting.
You can tell most of them were terrible at ball just by their jumpshot form. But there was 1 kid who stood out to me. He stood out because his jumpshot form looked "professional". Very nice form. I could tell just by his shot form that he had organized basketball experience. I later talked to him and it turned out that he played on his Varsity high school team.
You can tell alot off rip just by how a person shoots the ball. I mean some people look flat out stupid when shooting a basketball. Hell, I guess that would be the MAJORITY of the population would if you randomly gave them a bball and told em to shoot.
I know there's dudes in the pros who got funky jumpsuits but most times they aren't "shooters" or they're big men whose hands are too big for the ball.
So how does your jump shot look? Would we assume you could ball off the strength of your jump shot form or would we assume you're trash on some
Perfect hand placement
Middle finger always the last one to touch the ball
Slight leg kick like Kobe
My jumper look good but I’m a perimeter defense player. If I was a foot taller no doubt I would have been playing in at least the d league or overseas
I played ball so my jumper is by the book, textbook form. Lead foot to the basket, body tilted to the side, elbow lined with the basket, ball released from the fingertips. I struggle finding the right lift on my shot tho. Also im a lefty so pullups from a left hand dribble are tough.
I think most people who have a funky jumpshot never tried to shoot it the correct way so when they do it feels alien and unnatural to them.
man i was at the gym last week and hit a game winning three and this asian dude on the other team comes up and tells me i shoot like paul millsap. i was like that's such a random comparison, millsap's shooting form isn't unique enough to be notable... so i ask the dude if hes saying i have good shooting form.
he gives me the and says hes never seen paul millsap play so he doesnt know, and then he just walked away
gotta say brehs i still do not know what to make of that interaction guess i shoot like paul millsap
Kobe rolling in his grave looking at this. You let him downGUARANTEE I GOT THE BEST SHOT ON THIS FORUM
BEEN STUDYING HOW TO DEVELOP A PERFECT FORM SINCE I WAS 7
IF I DIDNT SMOKE SO MUCH WEED N FUCC AROUND SO MUCH IN HIGH SCHOOL, ID BE GETTIN PAID FOR THIS
