I just found the flaw in my jumpshot yesterday. My major problem was power transfer aka fluidity. I have a very good form but shooting even from inside the free throw line felt oddly strenuous, I feel like my arm is doing all the work. After trying several things like tilting a lot like Steph Curry, shooting with palm like Damian Lillard, none worked. I have a smooth one motion shot. I figured yesterday that all I needed to do was dip the ball to about above my knee level and just shoot with normal form. Suddenly I became a super sniper, I shot two CONSECUTIVE almost half court shot, shot CONSECUTIVE free throws and 3 points shots. Shooting the ball now feels effortless. If shooting the ball doesn't feel effortless, then something is wrong somewhere in your form, figuring it out is the main thing to fix your form. It took me two days of training alone (one day per week) to figure it out. This is because I never have time to train only to play. Go alone to the court, try different things till you figure it out. Best of luck.
Dawg i had the best jumpshot in the world it felt effortless i made 13 threes in a 30 min pick up game and now its gone and im trying to find it again it feels wrong now.
Bro this man was not lying I play as a defender in basketball and I want to improve my shooting and I did what he said and I made 5 shots which is a record for me
I find it can be tricky to find the flaw. You wouldnt always think that to shoot further you need to rotate slightly to allow room for your shoulder most people would think "oh i need to jump harder or push with my arm more" it gets tricky to find if you aren't out there practicing out there everyday with creativity
Depends which is causing the flaw. If the ball isn't going in a spinning motion or j t the direct direction then your hands too close to your other hand if your not shooting high enough or it feel strenuous when you shoot your feet are squared up (so tilt them). If the flow isn't right then you need the ball to move with your body. If arc is a problem use one hand to shoot directly under the basket make a certain amount then move to the free throw line and make a certain amount helps with accuracy, consistency and improves arc/form. Also I don't know if everyone does it but find out the best finger too roll off is it's usually index, middle or split
Completely agree with everything said in this video, dominion was so disappointing and my biggest issue with it was it didn’t feel like a Jurassic movie I hope with this new one we get darker toned lost world Kinda stuff like you were saying.
Yesterday I literally mastered it completely and the only thing I understood was to jump only with my feet and concentrate on straightening my legs completely. Only in this variation, my throwing technique did not change and I was able to easily throw it to the ring while hovering in the air
The problem for me is my thumb flick and when I shoot my thumb puts to much power to the ball and always hits the back rim and I don’t know how to fix it
I’m just inconsistent ya know? I’ll shoot proper form tons of shots then when I play pick up games I’ll start messing up. I think under pressure I ain’t so good lol. But I’ll get better
My problem has been palming the ball too wide on the way up resulting in the wrong fingers guiding the ball. Just starting to figure out that I shouldn't grip the ball so hard and just lightly follow through on the shot.
Wassup man so I just figured out i have the ability to write with both hands, so I’ve been shooting a basketball left handed my whole basketball career, and now im starting to switch to a right hand… do any of y’all got any tips
I have a big problem when I’m shooting, when I shoot my head goes all the way up for some reason and makes my jumper look ugly and it turned into a habit since I was younger, is there anyways you can help that?
the thing with my jumpshot is when i play at my home my net is 8ft and when i play on my school net which is 12ft (everyday for 2 hours) I usally get a wayyy worse form that when i play on 8ft can u tell me how to fix it?
My teacher said when u run and score don’t squat just run and when ur close to the hoop ur left foot is one ur right foot is two so when ur close one two score and it increase my score
So ive recently started to fix my left hand position while i shoot ( i was releasing it way too soon and i lacked stability) but know ive fixed that and i dont miss as many shots as then
my problem with shooting was that when i shot the ball i would shoot with 2 hands. i tried to force myself but then tried to shoot with a soft ball on a kiddy hoop so that now i can shoot properly
I almost have my shot figured out but i need more consistency lately ive caught myself draining 30 foot jumpshots but then i also struggle to hit simple free throws
I suck at basketball but everytime I pull up for a jumper it always goes in, that’s the only shot I can make 😭 my mid range jumper is lethal i never miss 😭
How do I improve my jump shot because when i shoot my shoulder feels like it's hurting a but like it's tired and should my elbows be close to each other or far away from each other
