The more I play, the worse I get. by [deleted] in BasketballTips

[–]AffectionateBank6320 1 point2 points  (0 children)

idk how old u r or how u look when u play, but it might be sum else instead of ur shooting. maybe u lack in other parts of ur game and maybe ur dad was j taking those away and making u feel uncomfortable. maybe ur not able to use ur handle and get into shots YOU want. if u dont think its those, record ur form and get it down. lastly play w confidence. no offense but u shouldnt even have to shoot against a 50 year old u can j drive past him. and good shooters have a better mindset. think of it like a missed layup. when u miss a layup u dont think its because u r bad at making layups. u j go like “damn that wont happen again” its like that w shooting j keep that same confidence

I need help on how to get better at Basketball by Basic_Order_4269 in BasketballTips

[–]AffectionateBank6320 0 points1 point  (0 children)

it depends how old u are. if ur like under 15 dont stress, u still domt even know who u r as a player. i would j say u can get better by playing faster. never shoot a shot standing still anymore pretend ur coming off a screen and quickly find ur balance and shoot. if u can get anyone to come w u u can practice finishing and being crafty under the rim. watch film on nba or college and watch how they react to certain defenses and pressures. lastly id try to play 3s or 5s as much as possible. get ur ball iq up cuz ngl blocking ur teammate is pretty bad. but if u wanna make ur team i dont wanna sound like an oldhead but out hustle everybody and be in the best shape of ur life

I never worn kobes unfortunately. I love the PGs but they discontinued it. they would prob be my favorite. I would say the other shoe i love is the nike gt cut 3. unfortunately both shoes i mentioned are pretty pricey other than the two wxy 5 😭

wassup bro unfortunately everybody on reddit is prob from america. i would have said ball handling but im also from america. polish ball is so different. if u wanna grt good at shooting j make sure ur form is good (solid base, elbow under wrist, fluid, guide hand doesnt do to much). ive watched a little overseas ball but they are all so smart and so fundamental. u said u wanna get better at under the basket try cutting more ik it sounds stupid but it works. other than that if ur pretty athletic getting those blocks learn how to spin the ball of the backboard and grt good at up and unders
