NO TWO SHOT ARE EXACTLY THE SAME. Even the best shooter of all time, in the most controlled game environment, doesn't repeat the exact same shot each time. Yes, each shot is similar, but they are all unique as well. The ability to ADAPT is the true skill of shooting.

RT @hossjob: Yes! Nikolai Bernstein first proved this principle in the 1920s. The most elite movers or those with the higher level of skill…

RT @PrimeAthlete14: This applies to all matters of human movement.

RT @BourilCoach: Say it louder!

RT @CoachFernandez1: Critical for coaches to understand this!

RT @scribeteach: Can't yell this loud enough for coaches who think that shooting mass FTS is the best/only way to get better at FTs

@kestrelpsych @RebootMotion @BBallImmersion @kirkgoldsberry @ShakeyWaits @Mr_Tennis_Coach @ZachLowe_NBA @inpredict @DeanO_Lytics The X axis is distance from center court, the Y axis is height. This is a representation of the ball of the ball while in the shooters hands.

Taller players benefit from longer levers—more torque with less effort. But height isn’t everything! 🏀 More power means more coordination challenges to maintain consistency. See how biomechanics impact shooting:

Steph's movement pattern allows him many ways to adapt, and that is the key. Yes, repeating an effective movement pattern is important, but being able to ADAPT it is the true definition of SKILLED. Make sure you read this blog for more.

What do I think is the most common cause of right-handed shooters missing to the left? We did a whole episode of the podcast talking about them. Here is what I think is the most common reason: Check out the full episode.

💡 Nominal vs. Functional Difficulty in Shooting Not all challenges are created equal. Discover how adjusting the right kind of difficulty leads to smarter skill development in basketball shooters. 🏀 Check out the full breakdown:

Do your players struggle with a Thumb-Flick or two handed shot? Do you do a lot of form shooting but nothing seems to transfer? Get the progression of drills I've used to help players improve 30% in one season. 60+ Videos, 2hrs of video content.

🔄 Not all good shots look perfect. If the seams aren't aligned, pure rotation can be hard to spot—but it’s still there. Most coaches rely on an illusion without realizing it. Dive into the truth about spin and shooting mechanics in my latest blog!

Coleman Ayers of @byanymeansbball came on the podcast and we discussed how we use implicit learning. Hear how we both use the ideas in our respective niches in this episode of the podcast. Coleman is a great listen.

Baseball pitchers tweak spin for deception. Shooters? They need pure spin for efficiency. ShotMetrics bridges the gap, helping players master their release just like MLB’s pitch design revolution. See how data is transforming shooting habits 🏀

It's one thing to know a player has a flat shot, and it's another to have a plan to improve it. Get all the drills and progressions that help one of my NBA clients improve 25% from the FT line in one season, and unlock his 3pt range!

Shooting Drills are like medicine—valuable, but only when prescribed carefully. Basketball Shooting development isn’t about one magic drill... it’s about diagnosing, adjusting, and building habits that transfer to the game. 🏀
