In today's video, I break down one of the oldest basketball shooting myths! I let you in on the one thing that might be killing your jump shot. Make sure you pay close attention throughout the video so you can Instantly Increase Shooting Consistency! These simple basketball shooting techniques are super easy to implement for players at every level. By implementing these tips into your game you can almost immediately skyrocket your basketball shooting percentage!
My first talking point I dive in and explain to you why “Get More Legs in Your Shot” could seriously hurt your ability to be a constant shooter. If we look at the best shooters in the NBA think of guys like Trae Young, Steph Curry, and Damian Lillard they have optimized their fluidity on their jump shot which helps them keep the shot repeatable. This is one reason why all three of those shooters are able to shoot with great touch and shooting range. Both shooters all get phenomenal power when shooting and it's because there is essentially zero wasted motion. When it comes to figuring out if you are jumping to high when shooting I walk you through a few basketball shooting tips to make sure we are optimizing your shooting form which will, in turn, help you optimize how high you jump when shooting the basketball. By becoming a more fluid shooter you will instantly increase your shooting range and consistency! Your lift is incredibly important to being a good shooter because proper basketball shooting technique will actually give you more room for error. So by optimizing how high you jump when shooting, you will ultimately hit more shots.
As always make sure you are paying close attention to these basketball shooting tips so when the time comes you can really expand your game to the next level! Watch the video all the way through and make sure you aren't making this one crucial mistake on your jump shot. This will instantly increase your shooting consistency! Keep in mind that every shooter is different so you want to experiment with how high you are jumping to see what gives you the best results.

I did the free workout and I waited like four hours and still haven't got it
I feel this applies more towards one motion shooters. Most of the distance shooters are one motion, Lillard happens to be the exception. It's more in regards to fluidity for one motion shooters. Two motion need the load due to that slight load. You can absolutely see Lillard load his hips for his longer distance shots. Ray Allen great shooter but I don't feel he could get nearly the distance of a Curry based on his shot type.
@@romeosmith4102 that’s because Ray Allen is a high jumping jump shooter… like the vid explained… 2 motion high jumpers do not have the same power and range as a 1 motion low jumper..
Love this! I’ve been a set shooter for such a long time, I always took the old-school approach to lengthening my jump shot, more legs. But studying the NBA over the last few years, the momentum idea is right on.
It's all about fluidity! Glad you are seeing some better results by focusing on optimizing your momentum! :)
Fluidity and momentum. The secret behind the secret is to tailor fit your abilities to your attributes. There's lots of ways to do things wrong, but precious few "right" waysto do them that you benefit neither from studying nor clinging to.
I'm teaching myself to shoot. I'm loosely following Curry's model. Quick release. High arc. Drilling my Handels. Especially behind the back. Extremely useful for small dudes.
It's important to read the disclaimer. This is a message for advanced players. "Get more legs in your shot" is typically being told to a younger player, who uses their upper body (without bending their knees) to shoot the ball. As you see from the video, all players, including the trainer bend their knees and most jump. With that said, the momentum tip is spot on.
It's unbelievable, you keep on having so much quality content for us!
THX for this vid!! I was checking online for how to increase my range bc I’m always missing threes by less than an inch.
Your videos have helped me improve so much in basketball many thanks 🙏 it would be amazing if you could break down Klay Thompson’s shooting form love the videos man keep up the good work
I’d just like to thank you for the progress in my game I went from a bench warmer to a starter in the state championship all thanks to you going from a 20% three point shooter to a 39% three point shooter
Cap
Glad to hear this. I’ve been changing my form too many times from this myth. At least I can become a better shooter now thnx.
Thanks maestro..helped me a lot
Been following this channel for YEARS!! I’m in my 40’s & I’m still getting knowledge from these vids!
So I went to the gym and tried to get more legs in my shot, to be honest it actually worked thanks bro 😄
LOVE IT! I'm telling you all it WORKS! 🔥
Your the best coach, I'm going through all your old videos.
This is very helpful. Thank you!
I’ve watched a lot of the shot mechanics videos over the years and some are more helpful than others (at least to me). I can say this one is really important. If you want to shoot three pointers especially you should follow the advice.
Always with that heat
Thank u so much for all that u've done for us u have helped me make a really consistent jumper and most of my friends say I'm one of the best in my high school and that's going up against some kids who have won state here in aus
Yeah, momentum is the right words to describe it, great stuff that's sure will help to teach shooting basketballs
Yes and no. You are correct about momentum and how you explained it, but if you're a below average height player like myself, using the "jump peak shoot " method works better when within the 3 point line. It allows for elevating over the taller defenders and getting the shot off. Where as the. Momentum method you cannot get the same elevation needed to shoot over taller defenders
Excellent video
Thank you shot mechanics
I never equated to using your legs to jumping higher -- using your legs to me is exactly what you said is important - create power and momentum from your hips (lower body). And, yes, Stephen Curry does have strong legs. Deadlifts 400 lbs.
I really needed this I had perfect form but was always missing by an inch looked at my tape and I looked like Russ shooting. Thanks Coach now I know I dont have to exhaust myself jumping high and leave that for the dunks
Always here
Thanks for watching!
Nice video first one
this really taught me how to shoot correctly!
Thanks 🏀
Question for you..... I've been playing basketball most my life and I'm pretty good at it. After several years of playing ball I just realized I set my feet as if I was left handed (I'm right handed). I'm trying to switch my stance and it feels a bit awkward at times. Would you recommend me changing how I set my fee or should I stick to what I feel comfortable with?
He's basically talking to Russell Westbrook
Lol Russ is that strong
Russ too explosive
this is good. amazing it needs said but good.
i try to get in a habit of jumping high while shooting on the way up like JJ reddick. but thats because i take a lot of mid range jumpers. i feel like if I don't jump like steph in the mid range, then i gotta shoot quick and high arcing and thats kinda tougher to control when you're closer in my personal opinion.
Question, how many arm strength do you need to apply when shooting the basketball? Cuz I'm a one motion shooter and I always having problem lately. I mean I always lock my wrist, relaxed off hand, feet tilted, no pause or hitch the way up, heel off the ground, split finger shooter, hip and leg loaded.
Thank you for showing my mistake and now I can shoot from anywhere in 3 pointer
Thanks
its a nice trick it helps a lot....
by the way how about the AI tech app, isn't it ready by now....
Can you breakdown Jayson Tatum shooting form??
And a video on scoring more off the dribble
I have trouble that when I shot it air ball or too a top or go to left or right. I need help to shot good
We have a ton of free content on this channel that can help with that issue you take a deep dive on our shooting vids and that's a great place to start! :)
Ima going to try this either today, and or tomorrow!!!!! Hopefully I think, and or know that this will or might just help me score better on 3's and a bit of 2's Lol!!!!! Alright, thanks and Peace!!!!! 😎😁👍✌👋👌💫🌟✨💥🔥🏀🏀🏀🏀🏀
Coach Collin I signed up for the max 1 when is it coming out I need to know. Also nice video.
It should be coming very soon! :)
Okay
Try downloading the app and just doing it. That’s what I did and it analyzed my form. Although there were a few errors. Nevertheless it’s a great app. I did signup on the waitlist. But before I got the email saying I’m good to go, I did the analysis of my form
I started watching your videos and from other shooting coaches hoping for consistent 3pt shot,but somehow I forgot how to shoot the ball like before. I had around 40% from 3pt and now its like 30% or less. And I screwed up my release,I was shooting with my middle finger,now with middle and ring finger. And guide hand kinda feels awkward now.
So any advice how to get my old shot back?
Same thing is happening to me, I'm still trying to figure that out. My best advice is to practice shooting easy shots that you are comfortable with while focusing on releasing it the same way you used to, until shooting that way becomes muscle memory again. Again I'm not really sure what exactly to do but that's my best advice.
Danis F0322 man just jump around at home and practice the right form. Practice the motion. I did that over quarantine and i came back shooting like Ray Allen
Can you make a video that can fix your arm and body when you shoot? (Unless its already there) My arm and hand go all over the place when I shoot. Thanks
When I shoot, my shooting arm crosses my face and my shooting arm also chickens out. I mean, there’s “If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it”, but I can shoot the ball. But also, I’m inconsistent, like I could have a day where I ain’t missing shot, then the next day I’d still be making some shots, but I’m missing left, right, and air balling
Can you please make a video on how to stop your follow through hand from going across your face
When I hear get more legs in your shot, I think get the release timing closer to the jump timing
Ray Allen: i have perfect jumpshot
Coach C:excuse me, am i joke to you
Mladen Arezina not really...
@@bepe4279 but dude, you got to admit it, man wants to make us best players as possible for today's basketball, without jumpshot today you are bench warmer
@@mladenarezina4047 thats true but you have to admit his jumper isnt exactly the prettiest
I NEEDED THIS LONG TIME AGO…COULDN’T THANK U ENOUGH COACH ❤️❤️❤️
When r u launching the m1 ai app?
Good🏀🏀🏀
actually steph and these guys have strong legs.they not be huge but they are really strong.steph deadlifts 400 pounds and maybe the others do too
Are you cross eye dominant? Cool.
Coach my set point kind of like Trae Young's when I normally shoot but when I shoot fade aways my set point goes higher like kobe. Do you think it is alright or not?
Its better like Kobe if u fade cuz its higher and harder to block but if ur not strong enough then idk
Thanks for the advice buddy
jubita Hajarimayum if youre not strong enough you should lower your set point or just train and become stronger over time
Coaches need to find a way to describe this situation if its not supposed to be "more legs". There are some shooters that use almost no dip or hop... they just load with their arms like free throw shot.. and as a result they tend to have limited range or almost no shot arc. I don't think a coach saying "work on your timing" to a player conveys the concept clearly enough for them to get it. Outside of showing them this video.. how would you describe this process?
Can we have a video on scoring better in transition?
Second baby🔥
Noti Squadddd 🔥
Coach collin I mentioned this before, I did all the drills you teach to have a one motion shot but still I'm not able to have the ball and my hips move at the same time. I dont know what else to do
Me too 🥺
This was a lot harder to do than you’d think
I have a problem, where both of my hands does the shooting motion and I don't even I have guide hand. They both does the same thing. Any solutions?
You clearly said use your legs and get mote power. The legs ARE very involved, they are the largest muscles in the body and when used fluidly with all mechanics are indeed crucial to successful shooting. True, one need not jump high but ya gotta have legs. Listen to yourself near the end saying to use the legs.
I have a question. So when I shoot for some reasons I can go to a local gym and when I shoot there I can hit everything and I have a good form but when I play for the league the very next day my shots off and it seems like I have to make up a shooting form from scratch in order to hit my shots
Nerves get to you.. ur comfy in the gym… and nervous in real game scenario… trick your mind… good luck
I need all the help i can get so i can shoot the basketball better
Momentum is correct I've been notice that
If u still play can u show us some of your highlights
How should 1 motion shooter shoot midrange like fadeaways
Coach Will you still post.I am asking because of the coronavirus
Momentum is very important but nobody is gonna start off shooting from 30 feet using momentum. Accuracy, slowing the mechanics is how you start that process.
After countless reps, then you can start using momentum after getting a feel of distance, weight and arc necessary for the shot. You're basically describing the last phase of the process. U gotz to check off a couple boxes first or else people will be shooting bricks n airballs in real competition.
You don't get Dame's, Steph's shot accuracy from deep over night. U didn't really demonstrate your own proficiency from that range in this video either.
In fact, Trae Young was tryna use momentum to shoot 30 footers in rookie summer league and was shooting bricks and airballs.. folks called him a bust before he got used to size of athletes and different elements of his competition impacting his release-'was shooting those ALL DAY at Oklahoma.
Getting a quick release from that deep of a range takes time. Put a disclaimer in that people won't start making 4 balls over night. Using just "momentum" as a tweak... Come on now!
Facts !!!
Thanks
@@wannybosange1621 👌 👌
Sir my left hand is totally dead 💀 in shooting please coach give me some tips for my shooting please please. Sir. 😭
The thumbnail says "kiiling."
Steve H he can’t put the actual word cuz of demonetization tingz
Where can I see NBA players jump shots from all angles?
Hi Coach, just an FYI. You spelled Killing wrong in the thumbnail
Not exactly true. Nobody was talking about jumping more in your shot... leg strength and foot work definitely play a factor in your jump shot. It is not a myth you just didn't understand.
How can Ray Allen jump so high when he is shooting and like shoots the ball when he’s in mid air. He does also have we ball over his head too I mean to shoot the ball over your head how can you get that much power. Someone please answer.
Dumb question but can someone explain to me set point and how to find the optimal one for my shot?
Somewhere between, nose and hairline. Not too for back, and not from your chin and below. 👍🏽
Does anyone know how to fix this, sometimes I shoot and it will hit the back of the rim and bounce out, then I try to shoot lighter and it airballs, and idk how to fix it
I would suggest shooting from closer. Start at a spot you can hit 6/10 - boost your confidence while using good mechanics. Take a step back and repeat until you're making 6/10 from desired range.
Players with power consistency issues often don't lock their elbow on the release. Make sure to lock out and take that variable out of the equation. then you can focus on the power needed for different ranges.
Hey coach c can you help me i want to be a better basketball player but i cant i want to be like you coach can you help me? Teach me how to be better
how not to jump forward when shooting?
hi
What's good! Have any hoops related questions I can answer??
I'm early
Oh thats why when you shoot you need to bring the ball down tysm
Does James Harden have giant strong legs? 😏
how to shoot like damn
On the thumbnail there are either two I’s or one L is lowercase but the other is not so it looks like “KIILING”

How to shoot from the corner
Mythbusters spinoff
Basketball myth busters baby! 🔥🙌
Sorry I have a question how I can angle my shot perfect like Steph Curry and to have it straight my shots
Pao Pao straight right arm
@@yitzun5080 yes I have trouble with it
Second
basically get more strength from your body
How in the world can you say power does not come from the legs? Make a video of you shooting after you just ran 10 suicides in a row. All runs must be under 1 minute with a 2 minute rest in between.
Bman Mcdowell he literally said “power does not come from the legs”. I have and still shoot just like he is teaching and I know you need legs to generate power. I extend the same challenge to you with the suicides. If you don’t have legs, you can’t shoot period. Do the drill and see what I’m talking about.
Get tullan
You pull up like lonzo
Doesn't legs increase your arc ?
You must be lying about the free workout because I've tried getting it 3 times in the past 2 days and i still don't have it

Ima 16 year d1 athlete but I cant shoot I need help
First
Look at curry man
Hook shoot
im TwEnTy OnE
Happy Birthday!
I don't think this is good advice. The easiest way to shoot a ball with most momentum is to shoot the ball with knees bent and elbow bent wrist bent and the ball actually leaves your hand when the knees, elbow and wrist all lock at the same moment. It you shoot at the height of your jump (when the legs are almost straight AND THEN start your elbow moving up, youl not benefit from any upward momentum from the knees as their is no more upward momentum and you might even start to be coming down slightly. YOU WANT THE SHOT to have maximum momentum of the legs elbows and wrists previously bent and moving up with speed (force) and the ball being released at the maximum force (which is when the knees, elbows and wrists all lock together.
