OFF THE DRIBBLE
Basic Information: Shooting off the dribble is a vital part of an offensive player arsenal. If you are a point guard, shooting guard, or small forward, a large amount of your shot attempts are going to come off the dribble. One-on-one capability is of prime importance in today game. Being able to create space between you and your defender is integral to your success as a player, and this drill will help with that development.
How to do the Drill: Begin at the top of the key. Take two dribbles at a forty-five degree angle to your right; make sure you plant on your inside foot when setting up to shoot. Shoot the ball. Do this ten times on each side. Take thirty second breaks between sets. Do three sets to start, and the more comfortable you get with the drill (and the better shape you get into), increase the amount of sets.
Keys to Success: Though the drill may seem overly simple, doing the mechanics correctly at a high speed takes time. It is important not to get sloppy with either your footwork or your dribbling in this drill. It is imperative that your dribbles to do not take you horizontally across the floor; always make sure that your dribbles take you towards the basket, even if in a diagonal fashion. The worst thing you can do as a player is to move without making any headway towards the basket. It is a waste of both your dribble and your energy. Also, if you move horizontally, it is easy for the defender to stay with you. Therefore, make sure you dribble towards the basket and force him to retreat, which will not only provide you with space to shoot the ball but also get you a higher percentage shot. Most importantly, MAKE SURE NOT TO DRIFT IN THE AIR WHEN YOUE SHOOTING THE BALL. Maintaining your balance, even while in the air, is very important; if youćŽe drifting or falling away when you are shooting, you significantly decrease your chances of hitting the shot. Try to jump almost straight up.
NBA Players who shoot well off the dribble: Ray Allen, Allan Houston. Watch the way they use their final dribble to give them more lift on their jump shot; they pound that last dribble into the floor, bending their legs severely, therefore, using their leg strength to their best advantage. Also, watch how they do not fade or drift when they shoot; but remain straight in the air, landing in the same place that they had taken off from.
SHOOTING
Basic Information: The Bread-and-Butter to any shooters?workout. Your are able to maximize the amount of shots you can get up in a given amount of time, while simultaneously improving your cardiovascular stamina and your ability to shoot at a speed similar to a game-type situation.
How to do this drill: Begin at the right elbow of the free-throw line. Shoot a jump-shot. After releasing the ball, begin a rounded run to the other elbow. Make sure you hit the elbow with your legs bent and your body well-balanced; you do not want to develop bad-habits while doing such a high-paced drill. Make sure your right foot is the first to hit the elbow, followed by your left. THIS IS KEY. Stepping into your jump-shot with your inside foot maximizes both your leg strength and your release-time. Perfect this, for it will be vital to both your improvement and success as a shooter. Continue to move back and forth between the elbows for two minutes. Rest in between each set. Do as many sets as possible. You can do this drill all over the floor; using the baseline and a space roughly ten feet away here your body is at an angle allowing you to shoot a bank shot. Do this drill on both sides of the court. You can also do this shooting drill, depending on both your strength and skill level, from behind the three-point line. Do not shoot from farther than you are comfortable shooting- your range will improve on its own.
Keys to Effectiveness:
Keeping up a strong pace. You cannot walk through this drill. Shooting while standing still is very ineffective. How many times do you get to stand in place and square yourself up during a game? Never. Practice as close to game speed as possible. As you get into better shape, you will be able to do more sets of this drill at a time.
NBA Players who shoot well on the move: Reggie Miller. Watch his footwork. He always comes off a screen with his inside foot hitting the floor first, which allows himself to catch-and-shoot as quickly as possible.
