    That's exactly how I got good at shooting.
    Did you have a hitch? Or a smooth release already and then worked on the timing once the release was in place? Sochan has to start from scratch with his release without adding extra components to it.

    Bahamas with Ayton, Eric Gordon, and Buddy Hield; going to be tough for Poland to win.

    Which is exactly why you start 2 feet from the basket and shoot set shots a thousand times around the basket until you can hit the same spot on the net every time. Then you take a step back and do it. Your feet don't leave the ground until you are about ten or 15 feet out. I spent months doing that.

    Poland can't do anything to generate easy shots. They just have to get hot. They lose this game eight out of ten times.

    That not what has been suggested on other posts. You're basically agreeing with me that leaving the ground is unnecessary close in. You don't need to add it at all until maybe 3 pt distance but even then you dont have to jump. Nobody takes jump shot free throws at 15 feet. You work on the release first and only.

    Yeah, you're right. Sorry. I saw the standing close and moving back part. I did that, and I used my legs as part of the shooting motion, but I only jump to generate more distance. I had the form and mechanics down before I started leaving the ground. When I practiced low post moves I would jump as high as possible for obvious reasons.

    God they're stupid. Jeremy goes in, breaks down the defenders and kicks it out, only for the guy to step back and reset instead of shooting.

    Two problems with this method.

    1. Jumping like that adds fatigue into the equation thereby limiting repeatability and lessening the amount of reps.

    2. In Sochan's case, he has a hitch and release problem. Not a timing problem. He's got to correct his hitch and release problem first.

    Easiest way to do that is to do repi ions of bending his knees and seamlessly rising and releasing his shot in a fluid motion over and over again until muscle memory takes over. You can't do that jumping up and down like a kangaroo while also working on your release. It goes against physical training in so many ways by engaging multiple separate muscle groups that don't pertain to the shot aberation.

    Edit: BTW, the proof he doesn't need help with his jump shot is when he's in the paint and rises up to take a shot he doesn't hitch. Its his set shot that is problematic. Thus adding the jumps won't correct the flaw.
    Which is why I stated that this is what should be done on the playground growing up. I am continually baffled to see players rise to the NBA level having never learned the basics of a textbook jumpshot.

    This is what summer/off season should be used for. it makes zero sense to be practicing a 25 foot shot over and over with broken mechanics.

    You fix the broken mechanics and start nearest to the basket until you perfect your form. Only after perfecting it from close to the rim - do you venture farther. This is the correct way. If sochan allegedly uses good form near the basket then he is derelict in not using the correct form as he ventures farther from the basket. Discipline is called for.

    unfortunately he's not playing assertively or as a ballhandler. Just the usual garbage off the ball bs for now.

    When I lived in SA, I put up a basketball goal in the back lot where I worked. I painted the key and the three point line and that's where I did it. Neither park nor gym.

    He’s great at collecting checks,though. I’d love to be a fly on the wall of his next contract negotiations when he’s offered like $65/4years.

    I’m not questioning the methodology, just the location. I don’t think anyone does that on the blacktop. You’d get run off by ballers.

    Not sure what that means. Everyone needs to practice. I've done drills with my kids at the gym and at the playground.

    But maybe that's the reason so many of these kids come to the NBA with ed up jumpers, because they were running people off instead of learning fundamentals.
