Firstly, love the work you're doing, feel like not many are else are looking into hoop with such a deep, scientific lens. Seriously appreciate it and so many people are going to benefit from this. Just to clarify my understanding: is the main takeaway here that the guide hand should have 1. Space between non-fingerpad parts of hand (palm especially) and the ball [if so, may I ask why do we try and have space there; wouldn't having more of the guide hand surface area in contact with the ball help with controlling the ball before our shot? Not trying to question your ideas, just trying to explain my understanding and where I'm perhaps wrong] 2. Fingerpads should be gripping the ball? Just want to know before I get some shots up myself and experiment with this. Once again, love what you're doing tho man
Just adding onto this; I saw the Shorts you did for this idea too and the examples from Tobias/Caitlin Clark; I'm not sure if I was able to see space between the non-fingerpad parts of their guide hand, and the ball => was this just camera angle, my eyes not working, or is the main takeaway from this video about the tension between guide hand fingerpads and ball, rather than the space between guide hand + ball?
