This guy tells the viewers the surface stuff 6:17 "the best way to get time on your shot is to come off screens"...wrong, the best way to get time is to be a screen setter. The screen will always be open, either on a dive to they basket or the step out. Why? Because defenders always react to the person coming off the screen, never to the person setting the screen. I always teach players pick, dive, step out and pick
I like what he said about coaching youth on shorter rims. I was giving a basketball lesson the other day to a child who barely had the strength to get the ball up to the rim. It was extremely hard to teach him good form and run through fundamental drills on a 10-foot hoop, which was the only one available.
I watched this video after getting cut from my junior varsity team and went straight to the gym and put up shots every night. He really motivated me. I made the team next year and was so good I even got a D1 scholarship. Even got drafted to the league!!! My name is Michael Jordan
michael jordan actually never got cut from his team. he just didn’t make varsity as a freshman, but ended up getting moved up to varsity a few games into the season anyways. stay woke 👁
The best thing he said was the different size rims for kids, I remember being 7 practicing basketball on a Nba regulation rim I’m short af weak and have to chuck the shit out the ball just to get it near the basket
So he is saying (1) take more shots inside the arc, (2) keep your elbow in, (3) believe you'll make the shot, (4) have a consistent focus point (the center of the basket), (5) have shorter hoops and smaller balls for kids, (6) come off multiple screens to get a shot off, (7) anyone can become a good shooter (not borne out by experience). But in real games, everything changes once there is actually a good defender guarding you and you can't just expect to be open off a screen all the time. Then you need some improvisation to get off your shot.
I think he's saying start learning to shoot inside the arc and move your way out. Too many kids want to start at the 3pt line. It blows my mind that it's possible for some shooters in college to have such bad mechanics in 2019. Watch a video on how Kawhi used to shoot at SD State, he threw the ball like he was inbounding a soccer ball. Chip England gets a lot of credit for fixing his shot (debatable because Kawhi was drafted before the lockout and did a lot of the work on his own), but basically he improved his mechanics and stopped heaving the ball from behind his head. It was a tiny change, but lead to him being able to shoot. How his coaches at SD State didn't see that is beyond me.
Man this guy used to come every summer to Gary Williams basketball camp. The fact that he can make these many shots in a session WHILE speaking is insane. I went every summer from age 7 to age 18. It was the highlight of my summer. Hope all is well Dave. Thanks for the memories.
I was at the Jim Calhoun basketball camp and he was there. He gave us a speech on shooting and as he was giving the speech he was shooting and he didn't miss once. He had to atleast shoot 100 shots
-Balance lower body lead to balance top body -dont use shoulder to push only wrist and fingers -swing ball from low to arc shot high -tip toe only dont use knee or thigh -swing legs out like sitting down -top body never leans or twist
i think any critics of this guy might be kind of... close-minded to say the least. it should be obvious to anyone with two brain cells that shooting the basketball and playing the sport of basketball are two very different things. anyone can be as good a shooter as this guy, just put in the time and do it right. but there's a reason there are only about 500 people on earth at any given moment that can be good enough for the nba.
I grew up with Dave. He is in the NBA as shooting coach for the Knicks. It may be why he looks tired because of the NBA travel. He owns the record for NBA 3s in a minute from the top of the key!!!
Its actually great to see how many people say feet squared is wrong because of proshot, they've changed shooting in a good way and passed the message on to millions of people.
sorry to bother u, but have you heard about release like klay thompson where the pinkie,ring,middle finger goes down like a fist and the thumb goes to the index finger? like this: fansided.com/2014/01/03/nba-trade-rumors-sacramento-kings-interested-warriors-klay-thompson/
Actually you do shoot with one hand you just notice it if you shoot with both hands your guide hand will get in the way and you'd miss,you dont shoot with both your guide hand and your shooting hand.
@@shaqtinoah But just imagine if he learned the right machanics. He sure would of had a higher FG percentage. My shot was a little similar to his & someone saw my jumper, worked with me & now my mid range has improved so much.
dont hate guys, he's legit. Yes he isn't kobe on the court but he's a master at the jumpshot
ofcourse he isnt he's a middle aged white guy thats not the fucking point

I was taught to practice with no rim! worked wonders! practice shooting the ball one-handed straight up in the air
The fact that he coached Kobe shooting techniques.
BAMGEdits . The man with the most missed shots of all time... yeah
I believe he coached the much better shooter Ray Allen
Zayzaysmallz Hey, he’s not in charge of Kobe’s shot selection. That’s all on Kobe

Before I shoot the ball I only think about the shot
Not the game
Not winning
Not scoring 50
Just making that shot
Thats how everyone should see
Wonderful advice I bet you make it 9/10
He came to camp I was at one time, dude was crazy. He had one of the campers record every shot he took in a notebook makes and misses. Shooting legend
Camp in Maryland?

This guy is a great teacher!
WOW!!! Great instruction. 👍🏽👍🏽
Very interesting video! Thank you!
Thank you for tips.
awesome knowledge of shooting
Finally a good vid on this shooting form.

what makes you good with accuracy is where your fingertips are pointing at, this video had good information
-Balance lower body lead to balance top body
-dont use shoulder to push only wrist and fingers
-swing ball from low to arc shot high
-tip toe only dont use knee or thigh
-swing legs out like sitting down
-top body never leans or twist
Mans is spittin fax
Dave Hopla is the man!!
Haukur Hauksson yup!
Just the video I needed.
This guy visited my basketball camp. He’s one of the best shooters I’ve ever seen was making every shot while talking to us
Lonzo should have watched this
Sounds like a lot of

He coached me 20 yrs ago.
check out pro shot shooting system if you wanna learn to shot
I salute you sir. This man ^ knows wat he's talkin bout. Dont watch this video. Go over to proshot.
+Daniel Mccree this is the best shooter ever watch his down shooting video
I have seen him in person at a basketball camp
That’s Pretty good
I've been able to shoot from anywhere on the court since I was a toddler. Where's the video on making them go in?
teejay Trujillo lmao
nice one
This guy is more than legit. He is a master at the jump shot.
Ben Simmons, won't still be able to shoot 3; after viewing this.
Wish coach would have touched on release point and guide hand.
The questioner sounds like that dude from the pacer test
What does he mean by center of the basket?
Its actually great to see how many people say feet squared is wrong because of proshot, they've changed shooting in a good way and passed the message on to millions of people.
I wish I heard this when I was in high school lol.... 👍🏽
Thank you coach Dave, you just told me my issues of shooting!

Real life Midorima
Even on the bench?
He signed my basketball
Why does the narrator's voice sound like the exact voice from the pacer test back in the day? 😂
All Bars
It's about wrist angle not elbow angle.
how about half court?
What about austin riverss!!!!!!!
He never missed a shot in an hr clinic shooting with one hand from everywhere. No cap
I met this guy

Looks at title
Me: so u tryna teach sum midorima type shit
I never see him shoot with a defender though
Yet USA is still the best country at basketball
YSC1123 Well of course, no other country takes basketball seriously
Actually Europe takes time to teach fundamentals
YSC1123 No one cares about basketball in Europe
U sound dumb but 🐸☕️
YSC1123 You probably have never set foot in Europe. I grew up there.
Shaq, Dwight, Joakim & others are gonna dislikes this 😂😂😂
When I saw the thumbnail I thought he was Arizona Senator Jeff Flake.
@Jeffrey Bird That is the sole reason why I watched the video because I thought it was Flake.
How many times do you shoot with one hand. Never. You shouldn't practice it. Practice haveing your elbow straight while also useing your offhand
shooting with one hand makes you straighten your arm
I disagree, but i only think that one hand shooting should be done 2-5 feet from the basket
Wrong
Actually you do shoot with one hand you just notice it if you shoot with both hands your guide hand will get in the way and you'd miss,you dont shoot with both your guide hand and your shooting hand.
Erik Foley once ur a NBA player ill listen
When I was 7 I played on a 9-10 foot hoop in my front yard
Cool
I learned to shoot a basketball by playing 2k
I look at this and imagine an OCD basketball league where they clean up there own sweat after every play. O.c.d.t.o
Just give me my percentage NBA lol

Midorima kun
Now im Ray Allen 🙂
I wish he could of worked with Shawn Marion. He needed his shot changed. His mechanics were horrible.
Mike Kirkland but it somehow went in

Throw it towards the basket. Simple as that
Sounds Like A Lot Of Hopla ..
Chunk it
you are wrong about why some players can not shoot a free throw. they are still shooting the same crappy 50% they shoot from the field.
