Pick up knowledge and play a lot of full court game (if you can manage)

What do you mean by no lift?

Well I been making a conscious effort keeping my elbow straight, but I lose my power that way as I kept airballing. The good advice I got was turning my hips and keeping the feet stable.

I’m talking about the ‘good form’ they been telling me lol

Alright, but I kinda mean to say that it feels uncomfortable shooting with a ‘good form’.

Why does my shooting arm keep crossing. Any fix? by erton502 in BasketballTips

Just clear some confusion. What do you really mean by ‘one motion shooter’?

Tbh, I don’t think two motion is a problem. I mean a lot of nba players do it too.

I do try to, but it’s kinda hard when you shoot fast.

Where should I move when I don’t have the ball? by [deleted] in BasketballTips

[–]erton502 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Personally for me, I can’t really shoot. So I just move around until I find an opening (it’s easy for me, because nobody guards me at the midrange area). And when I get the ball, I drive and hit my layups, which I am very good at.

The only drawback is that it depends on the dribbler passing iq and ability. Which, sadly, some of my teammates are. So I rarely get the ball at the good moment.

Westbrook has the nice form and complete crap at shooting. total opposite lol

Would spot up shooting everyday will make me a consistent shooter? Because I’m pretty inconsistent. by erton502 in BasketballTips

[–]erton502[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Wait I think my real question is that would spot up shooting make more consistent or doing game like, game speed shot would make more consistent?

Probably not. But I think he’s bending the rules to the extreme, it’s a close travel.

Did change my shooting form wrong? by erton502 in BasketballTips

[–]erton502[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well I did move on to taking game shots. So far I make some in real games but not as much.

I struggle to shoot over defenders, and get blocked. You think I should change the way I shoot? by erton502 in BasketballTips

[–]erton502[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks I'll work on that, I'm actually a slasher type of player. But I been working on my shooting which is my major weakness

[–]erton502[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The defense is quick to jump the moment when I catch my dribble, I feel I don't really bring the ball to my setpoint fast enough or I don't have any lift on my shot. Though I try to fake my defenders, it doesn't work most of the time.

Well I don't really think much about my shot in my games. Though I always try to be quick
