I've been spending this summer focusing on basketball
latent wharf
Never back down never what??
wide wraith
I'm still trying though
Same, I picked it up a year ago, but I became a lot better than the people I knew because I truly had passion for the sport of basketball. I would hoop for 4-5 hours every single day in order to prove the others wrong
I would literally see black spots when I started
But I kept pushing
cunning fulcrum
I've been working on my jumpshot a lot
When I started my arms would do this weird thing where they split in opposite directions
I'm not really sure how else to explain it
wide wraith
When i started, I wouldnāt use my guide hand a lot
I would just release the ball without it
But now that I got it down, I can pull from a few steps forward from half court with ease
Itās just repetition of your form
cunning fulcrum
I can shoot from deep, I just have issues with accuracy
wide wraith
Does your hand go sideways?
I used to have an issue where I would have range, but the ball would not even hit the hoop
I worked on it by putting a rubber band on my wrist and pulling it on my middle finger so that I flick forward instead of sidewyas
Sideways
cunning fulcrum
wide wraith
This was when I first started
I would say work on form shots under the basket and try to make your release more fluid since ur shot kind of stops for a real long period before reaching ur actual set point
Like say for example Curryās jumpshot
He would fluidly move it to the top of his forehead (his release point) and then release the ball
Even though everyone has a different jumpshot, I feel like a one motion release will help you with range and consistency
U can start slow but eventually itāll be automatic
latent wharf
Can u not get the kobe halo from different countries or some?

You dont need your guide hand to move when u shoot that messes up ur accuracy

Form shots are very good to shoot well. Personally doing tricep and deltoid helped me become a more consistent shooter. Also practice makes perfect. Thatās from my personal experience.

He lead in every single stat in his playoff series with his second time on the Cavs
Against the warriors
Oh yeah
I can send a picture but I donāt have permission
Leading in every single stat during a playoff season arguably against the greatest superteam in NBA history is insane
Also
Clutching 3-1
And then proceeding to lead in all five statistical stats
Bron > Jordan
I donāt think Jordan couldāve came against a 3-1 lead against the warriors
Or lead every single stat in the series
He went to game 6 against Karl Malone and John Stockton
He did have Kevin Love and Kyrie
BUT

Bron made it the finals with terrible teammates multiple times

Jordan had Pippen for all of his finals appearances

Won 11 times

I know he played in the 50s and 60s
But Wilt was still around
So was Pistol Pete

He wasnāt playing against all plumbers

Do U think by the end of currys career he will be better than Kobe
You could argue he already is
More mvps than Kobe
Kobe only has 1 more ring
If curry wins another ring then what?
signal atlas
Do U think by the end of currys career he will be better than Kobe
def not
people said kobe never passed and hes close in APG
compared to curry
steep hare
Kobe was taking all the tough shots cause there was no one else who could do it better than Kobe
signal atlas
Kobe was taking all the tough shots cause there was no one else who could do it ...
yea partly true
the main reason he had a low fg% was because he was a perimeter player
he was forced to take bad shots
it just how the lakers used kobe
steep hare
Yeah but he still made a drastic chunk of them
tacit skiff
He was not forced to take those shots š¤£
signal atlas
did you not see what i just wrote or something
steep hare
He was not forced to take those shots š¤£
They def force Steph to take horrible shots
It's why he's now chucking 3s like he's got nothing between his ears in comparison to earlier years
steep hare
Who was he supposed to pass to? Smush Parker? Kwame "Bonafide Scrub" Brown?
signal atlas
Kobe chose to take the shots he took
no its depending on who phil jackson wants taking the shot
thats how they used kobe
and thats not even mentioning defense
signal atlas
curry is a mid perimeter defender and a literal ghost on interior defense
steep hare
Except when Shaq left
steep hare
Kobe literally made him leave

Youāre acting like a 6ā3 guard is supposed to guard 7 footers

Youāre acting like a 6ā3 guard is supposed to guard 7 footers
chris paul can
tacit skiff
Kobe isnāt guarding most big players in the paint either
steep hare
Curry can't guard other 6'3 dudes
tacit skiff
chris paul can
Chris Paul is not doing anything against Jokic or embiid
signal atlas
curry is nowhere near westbrook or cp3 in terms of defense
steep hare
You'd have to be blind to not notice that
tacit skiff
Or someone less talented like deandre Jordan
signal atlas
Chris Paul is not doing anything against Jokic or embiid
im talking abt overall defensew

Dude is all 3 and no D

Curry is an average defender

Curry is an average defender
yea hes mid

But he isnāt a detriment on defense
signal atlas
But he isnāt a detriment on defense
he could be better
steep hare
He's their biggest defensive liability
tacit skiff
Youāre acting like Kobe was guarding Yao Ming or Dwight Howard
signal atlas
people use size as an excuse when you literally have cp3 making all defensive teams
steep hare
Literally no one else on that squad has worse defense than he does
tacit skiff
He's their biggest defensive liability
Heās the smallest player on the team
steep hare
That's no excuse lol
tacit skiff
Youāre comparing a 6ā3 guard to dudes that are 6ā7 and weigh 40 more pounds
steep hare
He can't even guard people his own height
signal atlas
Youāre acting like Kobe was guarding Yao Ming or Dwight Howard
hes one of the best defensive sg's
signal atlas
Youāre comparing a 6ā3 guard to dudes that are 6ā7 and weigh 40 more pounds
6'6
and im comparing curry to cp3
not kobe
cp3 is 3 inches shorter than curry š
steep hare
Like jesus Muggsy Bogues of all people would make Curry look like a cone on defense
tacit skiff
And cp3 hasnāt won anything
signal atlas
And cp3 hasnāt won anything
he doesnt need to win dpoy to be a good defender
steep hare
That has literally nothing to do with this conversation but okay

So did Iguodala win a finals mvp
Over so many other people in that series performing better than him

Like curry wasnāt top 5 in 2015 and 2016

Like curry wasnāt top 5 in 2015 and 2016
nah he was top 5 at the time
steep hare
I'm saying how your argument of cp3 hasn't won anything is utter dogwater
That's what I'm saying
tacit skiff
It isnāt

its just that he was injured in 2016
steep hare
It is
signal atlas
It isnāt
it is

Cp3 has been on several good teams and hasnāt done anything
steep hare
Just because he doesn't have any awards
tacit skiff
Clippers with prime Blake and deandre Jordan
signal atlas
Cp3 has been on several good teams and hasnāt done anything
he got injured on the rockets while up 3-2
which was a mid team
steep hare
You're saying he isn't good
tacit skiff
Rockets with prime harden
Finals with d book
Heās had plenty of opportunities and squandered them

Finals with d book
while he was 37???

Chris Paul isnāt even a top 5 point guard

Chris Paul isnāt even a top 5 point guard
hes not, we're talking abt defense
idk where accolades came from
tacit skiff
Ok even if heās a better defender than curry what does that mean?

Imagine blaming the finals on CP3 over DeAndre Ayton who was a no show
blocked by giannis
tacit skiff
Heās a worse player

so we blaming this on cp3???
tacit skiff
I didnāt say cp3 is why they lost
I said he had plenty of opportunities and didnāt do anything
Curry won a ring with Wiggins as his second best player lol
signal atlas
Ok even if heās a better defender than curry what does that mean?
it means that someone 3 inches shorter than him can be a better defender, so how is he a worse defender than kobe (who is 3 inches taller)
tacit skiff
Youāre not going to tell me Wiggins is better than booker or prime Blake griffin
steep hare
:| Wiggins was never the second best and the fact you even claim that is ridiculous
tacit skiff
I never said curry was a better defender than Kobe I said he was average but not a bad defender
signal atlas
Curry won a ring with Wiggins as his second best player lol
wiggins? drafted as the next michael jordan???
maple jordan
signal atlas
not to michael jordan but he wasnt a bust
steep hare
He wasn't
tacit skiff
What are you even implying?
Did I say Wiggins was that good?
I said he was the second option in 2022
signal atlas
Did I say Wiggins was that good?
we're talking abt the draft comparison

How do you go from stats and accolades to draft comparisons? This is why you canāt talk ball with casuals. No direction.

How do you go from stats and accolades to draft comparisons? This is why you can...

you dont package 2 all stars in 1 package
two all stars in return of Embiid and Harden?
this aint 2k, you need to build up chemistry which is why you dont trade your two all stars for 2 other all stars
and why would the rockets wanna do it?
they got a perfecr young core who got more potential of winning a chip then Harden and Embiid

I never realized Lebron made it to the finals 8 years in a row
He made it in 2007
Got swept
Then from 2011-2018 he made it to the finals every single time
and he won 3 of those times
Then two years after not making the finals again he made it to the finals at 36 years old and won a chip
4-10 aināt that bad
The fact that he made it to the finals 8 years in a row is crazy
The only player in NBA history to even rival that is Bill Russell
steep hare
Yeah that is true
You always expected LeBron to reach the conference finals if nothing else
With fairly underwhelming teams at times
delicate carbon
Even at 38 years old heās putting up 40 point triple doubles in the conference finals against the championship Denver Nuggets
Heās insane
I hope Lebron wins one more chip and ties with Kobe
I think his championship years are over now
I think if Curry won one more chip he would be considered top 5 OAT
He already has 4 chips and is tied with Lebron
He is already considered the best PG of all time
Heās been to the finals 6 times and won 4
Hes 35 tho
He aināt got much time left
I donāt think he has the longevity
steep hare
I think LeBron has enough gas in the tank to atleast make one more run for a chip in the finals if he has a good squad built around him
And idk I feel the roster they got now can actually pull it off
They don't really have a weakness other than their best backup to AD being Jaxson Hayes
Or in other words, they need a Jokic stopper
Someone like a Dwight Howard to make Jokic miserable
charred stone
I think LeBron has enough gas in the tank to atleast make one more run for a chi...
he can definetly make a run but question also is the health of Lebron and AD . Both have suffering from injuries the past few seasons . I like how they have been trying to build a roster where the unit can still put up a fight when the 2 is out wether by injury in the bench but I dont think Austin Reeves is gonna be that all star they need after a while
only reason reeves gets looks because of the 2 , Reeves has a lot more to improve before we even consider these 3 to be the big 3 in a final chip run for Bron . Wether we like it or not Bron is getting up there with age and father time is undefeated . Admit it or not he has lost a few steps (specially in the defensive side) , he can put up the number but will it result in wins ? that is the question we have to wait to be answered this season
oak hinge
lebron= Mickey šš
steep hare
I understand where you're coming from with that perspective but Reeves was getting a lot of shots last season because there was literally no one else to do shoot with him
They upped their roster this season and added a lot more shooting to their team especially from the perimeter in all positions except C
(I've never seen Jaxson Hayes take a shot outside of 10 feet of the rim)

Flight has been trained by an actual nba coach

At this point he starts being intentionally bad for content
Rather than actually being bad
I'm fully convinced that NBA coach has him shooting pure

At this point he starts being intentionally bad for content
I always thought that

Cause when he plays against other people he gets like 11-0 on em

And then all of a sudden he starts chucking up bricks
Like it's so sudden a bounce from extreme to extreme that it can't be unintentional
It just can't
