@KazumiHyuuga Please review videos in our YT channel library; Killer First Step!!!" and "Hip-toHip Attack!!!" for ways to attack the defender. We also have numerous Dribble Attacks in this library that should help you as we.
That's interesting; the shot fakes that get me to bite are the ones where they extend their legs ever so slightly. I never, ever watch the eyes. I watch the waist. Once it gets past a certain level, I commit to jumping to stop the shot; that's why people who stand up just a bit on their pump fake are so tricky to me.
@jml235 Truly, everyone is a little different. When you extend your legs and the ball on your fake it usually takes too much time to recover, thus losing the advantage. Certainly is our opinion and there are many more. Thanks for your comment and we hope you will continue to watch our videos.
@ShotScience My apologies, I didn't mean to say that your way was wrong or that my way was better. I always extend my legs on my pump fakes because I assume other people are watching my waist (since that's what I do). As you point out, however, that makes my recovery slower. I'm definitely going to try your method out today, because if they do bite, I'll be in a much better position to attack.
Thanks for the vids; they're great. The crossover one pointed out like 4 things I do wrong.
@jml235 Your apologies were not necessary at all. We took no fault with your comment. Just a different view. Thanks for your very nice comment and we hope the cross-over gets a lot better.
Another good tip is; while you're performing the fake, simulate as if you were dipping and going up, like, as you do the shot fake(ball going up) just bend your knees slightly, or lower your butt
@TheLebron6: The demonstration on the left is the one that we feel is best. It is short and quick and you do not have to recovery from the position you see in the shot on the right.
@sarkan2: A simple solution is do not take his fake in the first place. He knows you will go for it. What will he do if you stay on the floor and do not respond?
@lawofuekiaddict: Work on improving your fake. Often, we find our students execute really poor fakes and expect to get their shots off. Review the video details and then really practice, practice and then practice some more.
@mrblackcat12: Thanks for the sub and stay tuned. There will be many more coming up. Thanks also for your nice commets. We really appreciate it very much.
Hey guys just wondering, they way I shoot is like improper, aka like a girl, but i,m good at it tho, can I still do the BALL-TO-CHIN MOTION? Because that way they'll think I am shooting, normally, but ill just circle around them and... bank it :D
@DildoPlanet1: You need to make that decision as we are not sure what your shot fake looks like. You do want the shot fake to look like your shot to get them to accept it.
My problem is that when I try to hold the ball so I can fake, the basketball I am holding most likely got robbed by the defender especially when the defender is big...
@LeonorJosheb: Your problem is one that you need to work a lot on. There are no secret answers that we can offer. It all comes down to doing a lot of work.
Hey coach, a lot of times when I drive to the hoop I get blocked. Of course I could try to draw the foul but getting packed every time isn't fun and sometimes it's all ball. How do I avoid getting blocked when going up?
@PostUp45 that's tough! Try checking out our "Finishes at the Rim" video and it will give you some ideas on what to do. If you draw the defense, you should also have a teammate that is open. Keep an eye out to dish if your lane gets shut down.
@GioRox1234 it's more of a bad habit than anything. You want to keep your feet ready to go either way and the fake should be really short and quick with the ball and eyes/head.
@AustonWilliamsTV: You choice! We feel that the decision should be made on your size and physical strength. We have many of our 12 yr old students, both boys and girls, shoot with the higher set point. This is recommended so that you can get your shot away easier with out it being blocked.
@AustonWilliamsTV ur supposed to bring it up high enough so that your elbow is parrallel to ur forehead but its kinda hard prob cuse at 12 u may or may not have enough strength
On my Basketball team I'm the starting shooting guard, but I am smaller than most other shooting guards, which makes it that much more important to make space off of my dribble. I have tried this move repeatedly and it seems to work every time! Usually around half time thou, the other team starts to catch on to what i'm doing. So here is my question How can i make space off of my dribble?
i'm really good at crossovers and ball control. It's just when they catch onto the ball fakes and crossovers

coach, the right way to do a shot fake is to get low with your elbow in(perfect shooting form) but a) i at the moment don't shoot like that and b)it is harder to do it faster should i stick with it?
@gryphus001: Too often we are obsessed about blocking shots. Let that go, and stay on the floor and contest with a hand in the face on the shot. Remember, the offensive player wants you to take that fake and if you do, you play into their plan to get the shot off. If you take the fake you are easier to go by and you set yourself up to possibly foul the offensive player. Don't take those fakes and leave your feet, this is a way to collect unwanted fouls. Stay down!
@MARKSMAN2318: It makes sense to show the shot fake when they are close to you so that when you show the fake they elevate just a bit, then it's time to go by them.
@123ThatOneGuy123: Well, not everyone re-acts like that. If you get lower the response needs to be "Shoot it over the Top." If you crowd, then lets go by them to the rack.
@UnPhaUnKnowed: If you have made a good fake and he responds, attack the basket aggressively using the long One-n-one attack with the hip-to-hip technique. You will beat him to the hoop. Check the videos for these techniques and let us know how it works.

that's good..keeping your self on balance while your defender off balance..that's what basketball is all about..thanks shot science..i have learned so many things..thanks for all the tips..off to the playing court..
@ShotScience thanks for the reply..i thought you wouldn't noticed me..hehe..anyway all of the tips you guys have shared was all inspiring..hope more videos..still waiting for the how to jump higher..
i took your advice and continued working on my shot thank you for that because i have become a lights out shooter. But can you make a video for posting up and like hooks and turn around jays.
hey this is a great vid this also helps when your in the paint ive used once or twice and this is a great way to draw a foul and also if you get your shot really good while taking contact so a vid like this is perfect for anywhere on the floor
@bruynail: You are not aiming your toes, merely rotating your shoulders and body to give you better stability or control before and during the shot. The toes are turned only a little bit. All of your aiming is done with your arm stroke. Good luck and keep us up to date on your progress.
I notice in ur video it mentioned that shooting stance should have 1 leg foward and 1 leg slightly backward.
In my other europe training video suggest by other coaches, they mentioned the perfect shooting stance should be both foot parallel to the rim (to avoid twisting of the body while in the air).
I did notice many professional player does have the angled stance u mentioned in ur video. Could you please explain the benefit of shooting with the body at a angle?
@scoobychau basically the slight stagger allows you to have your shooting side line up with your target. If you shoot completely squared to the basket, you're going to have to force your shooting arm in, towards the center of your body. This is both uncomfortable and won't give you the smoothest, connected release. Check out our video called "Where to put your Feet." Hope this helps!
@scoobychau: We feel that by having your feet squared up to the basket you will tend to shoot the ball off your shoulder and your balance/stability will be affected poorly. If you were to have your arm located in the middle of your chest then we would agree to squaring. However it located on one side or the other of your body.
In my 50 years of coaching I have never seen a shooter twist his body while shooting the ball with staggered feet. However, you need to do what you feel works.
your the biggest help on the internet you guys explain really good and the best one is the guide oh i mean assist hand it helps really mich thank you!!!!
Sonic: We often do not attack the defender hard because we think we "CAN'T" GET BY THEM." If they bump us, we stop on the contact when we need to continue to the hoop. If they are close to you this is the time to attack because they have little time to react to your drive. If they play off shoot the ball over the top. Make them do what you want them to do and not the other way around!!! Good luck and remember; "Attack the Rack."
Chase, how can I achieve a perfect shot form like Ray Allen's? My shot form looks like I am leaning too much towards the basket, and I am pushing the ball towards the rim completely with one arm.
WRCx: You might start with using our "Form Shooting Drill" where to really focus on the fundamental parts of the shot and repeat over and over and over til you get it going. It sound like you are not using your legs. You need the leg power to get the arc you need for the shot.
Can I ask? Which is more advantageous to do when we do lay up... Are we going to hit the board or Ring2ring.... and can u teach us what is the proper way of lay up??
az: We believe that you are asking about being able to dribble faster. This is accomplished by "POUNDING" your dribble so that the ball comes back to your hand quicker. It's also important not to dribble the ball too high which makes it slow. A good dribble height is waist high with going lower when changing direction and higher and longer when we are on s speed dribble. Hope this helps.
when i am doing a sidestep, i am always out of my balance. i always miss my shot. for example, when i step my right foot and then stepping again with my left foot in opposite direction, i always out of my balance and miss my shot .
chiken: Check out our video on "The target" and your answer will be very evident. We don't like either on the ones you mentioned. We refer to them as "False Targets" because if we are successful in hitting them the ball usually will not go in.
can anyone explain to me what is double drible? They say that its a foul when you hold the basketball with your two hands and then you drible again. When you do your fake shot you fake it and u drible again why isnt that foul?
Well, a double dribble isn't a foul, but a traveling violation. If you dribble the ball, pick it up, and then begin dribbling again, you turn the ball over to the other team. On the shot fake where you fake and then go to the hoop, you should still have your dribble before you do the fake. Does that make sense?
In general, this is true. The only exception is in the post when you put down a "power dribble" (aka crab dribble). This is a one-off dribble that is thrown to the ground with both hands while doing a drop step. We'll have a video on this down the road.
Nice videos, keep 'em coming!! Do you think you can create a video of how to hold basketball when shooting?? I'm really confused on that and I would appreciate it.
Kid: If you go back to our earlier videos on our channel you will find all of the information and also watch some of the "Interactive Videos". We think that these will do the trick for you. Good luck and stay tuned.
Hey, I need help on my offence. I often play basketball with my friend, and when I stop dribbling, he keeps his hand in my face, when I keep my hands up, I get swatted, shot fake doesn't effect him, and the Diamond doesn't work when I go into him. It's hard to get past him unless if I lay it up. Is there anyway to make him back of so I have space to score?
Poke: Don't pick up your dribble. Take him to the rack until he gets off you. Your difficulty in getting by him amy be because you don't go hip-to-hip when you attack him. Players often help the defense by looping around the defender when attacking the rack and this helps the defender. Check out the "Hammer" video.

HI ShortScience,
I notice in ur video it mentioned that shooting stance should have 1 leg foward and 1 leg slightly backward.
In my other europe training video suggest by other coaches, they mentioned the perfect shooting stance should be both foot parallel to the rim (to avoid twisting of the body while in the air).

I did notice many professional player does have the angled stance u mentioned in ur video. Could you please explain the benefit of shooting with the body at a angle?
thanks alot.
scoobychau 1 year ago
@scoobychau basically the slight stagger allows you to have your shooting side line up with your target. If you shoot completely squared to the basket, you're going to have to force your shooting arm in, towards the center of your body. This is both uncomfortable and won't give you the smoothest, connected release. Check out our video called "Where to put your Feet." Hope this helps!
ShotScience 1 year ago
@scoobychau: We feel that by having your feet squared up to the basket you will tend to shoot the ball off your shoulder and your balance/stability will be affected poorly. If you were to have your arm located in the middle of your chest then we would agree to squaring. However it located on one side or the other of your body.
In my 50 years of coaching I have never seen a shooter twist his body while shooting the ball with staggered feet. However, you need to do what you feel works.

Hey Chase I got a question. Ever time I do a shot fake the defender still keeps on blocking me an I can't get to the basket. What should I do?
Sonicfast139 1 year ago
Sonic: We often do not attack the defender hard because we think we "CAN'T" GET BY THEM." If they bump us, we stop on the contact when we need to continue to the hoop. If they are close to you this is the time to attack because they have little time to react to your drive. If they play off shoot the ball over the top. Make them do what you want them to do and not the other way around!!! Good luck and remember; "Attack the Rack."
ShotScience 1 year ago
Chase, how can I achieve a perfect shot form like Ray Allen's? My shot form looks like I am leaning too much towards the basket, and I am pushing the ball towards the rim completely with one arm.
WRCxTHExGLASSESxOG 1 year ago
WRCx: You might start with using our "Form Shooting Drill" where to really focus on the fundamental parts of the shot and repeat over and over and over til you get it going. It sound like you are not using your legs. You need the leg power to get the arc you need for the shot.
ShotScience 1 year ago
is there any other types of shot fakes?

Can I ask? Which is more advantageous to do when we do lay up... Are we going to hit the board or Ring2ring.... and can u teach us what is the proper way of lay up??
VinCe07John 2 years ago
Not really sure what you mean, but we're going to have a video on lay ups here soon, so keep an eye out!
ShotScience 2 years ago
i think the board to ring is better.
EricMichaelRemo 2 years ago
Eric: We feel the same way. The layup over the ring is a tough shot because it takes so much finesse. Using the board aids accuracy.

how do you gain ball speed . like being able to move faster and that
azda09 2 years ago
az: We believe that you are asking about being able to dribble faster. This is accomplished by "POUNDING" your dribble so that the ball comes back to your hand quicker. It's also important not to dribble the ball too high which makes it slow. A good dribble height is waist high with going lower when changing direction and higher and longer when we are on s speed dribble. Hope this helps.

Don't really know what you by side step. Give us more info and we will try to help out.
ShotScience 2 years ago
um. when i do the sidestep, I always miss my lay up.
jeysidalumpines 2 years ago
jey: Please explain more about your sidestep as it is still not clear what move you are speaking about.
ShotScience 2 years ago
when i am doing a sidestep, i am always out of my balance. i always miss my shot. for example, when i step my right foot and then stepping again with my left foot in opposite direction, i always out of my balance and miss my shot .
jeysidalumpines 2 years ago
jey: Work on your footwork and especially your balance. Keep workin on it and it will come. Let us know how you are doing.

do we look at the front of the rim or the back of the rim, i look at the back of the rim
chikenfriedricey 2 years ago
chiken: Check out our video on "The target" and your answer will be very evident. We don't like either on the ones you mentioned. We refer to them as "False Targets" because if we are successful in hitting them the ball usually will not go in.
Check it out.

can anyone explain to me what is double drible? They say that its a foul when you hold the basketball with your two hands and then you drible again. When you do your fake shot you fake it and u drible again why isnt that foul?
MrSuperundeR 2 years ago
Well, a double dribble isn't a foul, but a traveling violation. If you dribble the ball, pick it up, and then begin dribbling again, you turn the ball over to the other team. On the shot fake where you fake and then go to the hoop, you should still have your dribble before you do the fake. Does that make sense?
ShotScience 2 years ago
@MrSuperundeR dont forget that you can't dribble the ball with 2 hands at the same time either
naruto31077 2 years ago
In general, this is true. The only exception is in the post when you put down a "power dribble" (aka crab dribble). This is a one-off dribble that is thrown to the ground with both hands while doing a drop step. We'll have a video on this down the road.

Hey, I need help on my offence. I often play basketball with my friend, and when I stop dribbling, he keeps his hand in my face, when I keep my hands up, I get swatted, shot fake doesn't effect him, and the Diamond doesn't work when I go into him. It's hard to get past him unless if I lay it up. Is there anyway to make him back of so I have space to score?
PokeAsian11 2 years ago
Poke: Don't pick up your dribble. Take him to the rack until he gets off you. Your difficulty in getting by him amy be because you don't go hip-to-hip when you attack him. Players often help the defense by looping around the defender when attacking the rack and this helps the defender. Check out the "Hammer" video.
