[jag2796]

I don't get the drill it just seems like he's just shooting around:/

[TheBaxxor]

Aw, man! You shot the lights out ;)

[mh22sas]

you take too long to release the ball when you shoot... and u need to use ur legs more bro.

[adarqui]

@mh22sas ok coach!

[KidTwizzlerr12]

@mh22sas On close shots, you really don't need to bend your knees.

[LebronandWallace]

man that park is too raw, wish i lived close to something like that. Damn.

[adarqui]

@LebronandWallace : ya man, it's a very nice park, all rims breakaway..... 3 10' full courts, 3 9' full courts, and 1 8' full court.. including 3 baseball fields, field turf football field, tennis courts, and a pool.. i mean what the friiiiiick... hahah

[BreatheCreativity]

Tried this today and I gotta say this definitely improved my efficiency man. Can pop out some nice three's now!! These go pretty fast, I counted about 100 in like 10 minutes.

[adarqui]

@BreatheCreativity : nice man!@$!@$

ya it's so funny how something so simple can have such a profound effect on the jumper, but it really comes down to ingraining the basics as a perfect reflex, really helps.

glad it helped man! if you stray away from the drill for who knows what reason & your J ever needs to get "put back on track", remember this drill :D

peace man

[adarqui]

@StuckInTheAir : well i used to knock off > 100 in less than 30 minutes.. i had a pretty quick pace.. you can get in like 10 shots a minute.

i forget though, i havn't really practiced for basketball since i was 22-23, im 28 now. heh

the days when i'd hit 500, i'd usually split it into two sessions.. early session and evening session..

peace man

[djsm028]

Very nice shooting man!

[adarqui]

@djsm028 : thanks mang!

[cheke64]

this is the best drill to do, however shooting grounded on the floor will not make you a better JUMP shooter.

[adarqui]

@cheke64 : this will make you a better jump shooter in the sense that it improves your arc/mechanics, but sure you have to actually do jumpers/etc.. this drill is great to do before games and practices too, really gets everything back on track.. it's kind of like in baseball where you can "lose your swing", you can "lose your J" in basketball the same way. this drill helps to reduce those chances.

peace

[fourtyplus]

looking forward to it man!

[fourtyplus]

you got a nice stroke. what happened to the light at the end? it looked like it was meant to happen though

[adarqui]

@fourtyplus : thanks alot man, lights went out, didn't know what time it was.. i was spent from my dunk session, got up nasty high, i got some pics on adarq dot org in my journal.. im saving footage to make better mixes from now on.. but ya lights went out, i was planning on putting together a vid of just all types of variations, prolly best that they went out though, ill be able to write down what i want to do to make the vid better now.

peace man!

[LanceSTS]
