    Reasons why nick likes the three point shot:
    It's a cool shot
    It's a long shot
    It's a killer shot
    It's a good shot
    And it's a great shot

    I definitely thought he was high at first, but maybe he's just laid back, and that's why they call him Swaggy P.

    • @Screamingcry12
      @Screamingcry12 Před 7 lety +4

      What you want to do is shoot on the side of your dominant hand. What I mean by that is you wanna pull up on the side of your dominant hand and dip to your leg (if you're right handed, your right leg, if you're left handed, your left leg) and keep it on that side.

    • @btc4three1

  • @tilden02
    @tilden02 Před 7 lety +2

    One more thing, I think how you shoot the ball is what makes the shot sexy... It's not sexy cuz it's a 3. Unfortunately, this is not the video that kids learning how to shoot should be watching because what I'm seeing in the gym these days, is kids jacking up 3's and can't make a layup or midrange. Their first shot when they enter the gym is a "sexy" 3-pt shot. I guess they wanna shoot the 3 cuz it's sexy. Which leads them shooting a midrange like it's a sexy 3 which results in an ugly brick. Thanks a lot buddy for sharing!

    I never understood why I should leave my hand up until the ball is in the net. After throwing the ball, the position of my hand will not affect the flying path / speed / angle of the basketball in any way. Please someone explain this to me.

      @Dexnos_ Před 8 lety +1

      It has to do with repetition. Your brain will become more adjusted to the correct form where as if you walk away you might have a different type of release each shot.

    • @JesseUsmc
      @JesseUsmc Před 8 lety

      It's the same technique when shooting a gun, You got to follow through so you don't jerk the trigger or mess up your zero point aim. Basketball is the same technique you are sniping the basket.
