He missed....

[tyronlangley]

so as long as u jump when you elevate , your good?

[ArabNamedJordan]

This Video is good and all, but the way that you said, a good shooter is supposed to jump from one spot and land on the same spot, i have to disagree because a good player would shoot and quick follow through his shot for the rebound if he misses. just saying

why is the white kid twitching while he is holding the ball it looks like he has to take a piss

[tonebeatz24]

Poor shooting and poor coaching. When you shoot you are suppose to use your fingers and wrist like Jordan used all the time when he use to shoot. You don't use your hands. If Jordan was on here he would tell us the same to use your fingers and wrist. Jordan would get this guy corrected. Other wise stick to hockey white man.

I bet that's the guys son ........ And he is going to pay for him to play basketball in the pros. He is also trying to impress the scouts. I bet the dad also wiped him after he was done.  The kids expression at the end looks very scared like he should run away..... West vid in a long time ....... But funny

hahaha......

I was thinking that the boy was a great jump shooter and he will float like Ray Allen..........buut......he threw like Shawn Marion........oh Lord! You need to bless him!!!!

Sorry man! kkkkkkkk

LOL he landed in front of where he shot - Causing the ball to hit the back of the rim as we see. Thats a terrible example, and wtfs with the coach hes like "landed right where he jumped from" and "hes gonna be a great jump shooter". fail.
