the guide hand comes off the ball you have a high release to make sure you got
a good arc on the ball
come on come on come on
always be ready to shoot when you catch the ball
everyone wants to be a great shooter
it's really important to use your legs when you shoot what's not important is
how high you jump as long as you release the ball near at the top of your jump
and Miley guys are so quick the higher I jumped the better the chance they'd have
to recover and block my shot
I always try to release it quicker rather than jump higher this gives me a
chance to get my shot off against good opponents see the canadian team as i
mentioned they had really arrived at the defensive end of the court that's been
their school in this tournament know when you defend you get scoring
opportunities cash when you're pulling up for a jump shot always playing your
inside foot which one's your inside foot
it's always the closest foot to the basket not only does this would allow
you to gather your balance and rhythm but it also cuts the defender off and
protection from your jump shot when I pull up to my jumpshot always planned my
inside foot square to the basket and get my rhythm like that I love shooting up a
great way to score but it's very important to catch the ball in your
range if I catch the ball my raise the defender has to honor my jump shot now I
can attack is lead foot and step past him from here I can keep going to the
basket I can pull up and shoot a jump shot if the defender recovers I can step
back and still get off a jump shot three throws are a huge part of the game of
basketball
how do you become a great free throw shooter simple practice really important
to be a great promotion so many games in my career that we've lost and if we only
made up read those we would have won
I always step up to the line of Congress I put my right foot forward bend my
knees my feet are shoulder-width apart i square myself in the basket i dribble
three times to collect myself I take a deep breath and I think the ball going
through the hoop I release to make sure the shot goes up softly so if i don't go
straight it has a great chance to bounce around the room and use its touch to go
in the basket
nobody makes every shot so never get mad if you miss a shot just try to be
consistent to shoot the exact same way every time
how do you do this gives the ball a chance use your proper technique but
have a high arc backspin sort of the ball goes up in the air has a chance to
bouncing if it doesn't go straight
defense is hard work man demand full court pressure is one of the toughest
things to do in the game
what's important in full court pressure you want to try to force your opponent
to use their offhand get them to change directions and played a speed they're
not comfortable playing it
how do you do that by staying low having a wide base your back straight and your
eyes up when your opponent takes off the dribble you want to try to slide and
beat into the spot and make them change direction no changes directions i want
to open my body up and turn and slide and try to beat into the next position
until he picks up his dribble
now what happens if i get b if Leo is too quick for me and beats me off the
dribble i'm about to turn and run I can't slide anymore because I'll never
catch up to him in this guy case in far answer the night I read my mind
after the side but it's no use because you can't stop it from shown in through
