12 year old Joe practicing the "Swish" Method!

Here's a preliminary version of a new shooting clip I just got of a boy named Joe from Palo Alto I've coached a few times in the Swish way of shooting.  I'm going to get more video from them soon, including 3's and Free Throws, and then I'll make a final clip with audio.  But just see the control and confidence this young boy has.  It's the confidence of "knowing."

Open stance, definitely!!! Google "The Greatest Lie in Sports" and see a collection of shots proving that nearly everybody opens his stance.  The Squared Up stance is obsolete. It's like a boxer throwing jabs: he would stand open so he can reach forward to jab and so the body is braced by the back foot, thus allowing the body to move up AND forward as you're taking a shot. It's also easier to aligln the ball from an open stance.

wow

[SwishCoach]

Yes, Wow, I agree. The previous emailer said "no way he can be 12," but yes, Joe was 12 and 93 lbs. when this was taken. Now he's 13 and ~100 lbs and has more range. The point is ANYBODY can learn to do this, and this is all that Diana Taurasi, Steve Kerr, Steve Nash, Stephen Curry, etc. are doing. Get the Swish videos and you can learn it.
