    Just shoot the way that feels natural and comfortable. The key is to not be conscious of your shooting. Dont throw a brick at your head just try and focus on the game when you play against people, stop thinking about how your shooting form is. All you should be thinking in a game is how to score, where to pass it for your team mate, or how to get to the rim. MAKE IT NATURAL. Its like forcing it, don't think about it much

      No man when shooting your form, release and footing counts. If these 3 are trash did you’re going to miss a majority of your shot.

    Basketball is so near and dear to me. It’s something I’ve truly loved unconditionally since a child. I’ve loved many things and people as I’ve gone throughout my life, but basketball gives me that resonating love that I can trust. Something I know can give me what I need and want from it, still wanting more, and still receiving that unconditional love back from what you’ve put in. God bless basketball

    I'm an ex pro- now coaching in Finland and running my own bball camps here. I've been watching a lot of videos from guys trying to find better ways of breaking down shooting components. Your video is damn good man. Only thing I would add is (eyes/elbow). A lot of young players are aiming wrong. Plus don't have their elbow aligned properly. Anyway- good stuff. You earned a fan here bro.

    • @Микита-п9х
      @Микита-п9х Год назад +2

  • @divantewilliams3155
    @divantewilliams3155 6 лет назад +17

    Another tip I think everyone should think of is keeping your elbow aligned with the goal and keep it at 90 degrees. Pause at 3:21 and look at the arm he shoots with. This is a good tip in my opinion because it allows your shot to remain straight all the way through.

    Good Video Coach Howard, I like the techniques described. If you ever do an update or new video add the techniques reviewed at the end of the video with a slow review of all the techniques coming together. Like an instant replay. Foot placement, jump, hand placement no thumb, perfect release point, and straight follow threw.

  • @parker9097
    @parker9097 5 лет назад +2

    the jumping thing is big. my shot used to be decent, but it was inconsistent and sometimes a shot felt way off and other times it felt perfect. One time I was playing a game of knockout with my friends, and naturally, my legs kicked out in front (which i never did before) and that made me jump shorter but it was a perfect shot. So next time, I pulled up, kicked my feet out and bam, won the game. The thing about kicking your feet out that couple inches is that it will always give you the same height jump, so the timing needed to make the shot is always the same. try it.
