In this article we will talk about one of the most important elements of basketball - the shot. And not just about throwing, but about how to achieve a significant increase in the accuracy of your throws, without radically changing their structure, that is, without relearning.

Of course, the correct throw, or, more precisely, the “classic throw from the forehead” is cool, correct and beautiful. However, it seems to me that what matters is not how you throw, but how effective those throws are. If your throw is difficult to cover and it regularly hits the hoop, you don’t need to change anything radically: look at your throwing technique Larry Bird, Michael Jordan, "Magic" Johnson And Ray Allen. They all shot differently, which didn’t stop them from scoring well; so draw your own conclusions.

Shooting Practice: Aiming Point

The tips you read below are recommendations Jay Wolf– throwing improvement specialist, organizer of summer sports camps, company owner StarShooter, you can read more about him on his website - starshooter.net. Well, now, strictly speaking, advice divided into 2 parts: how to improve close-range shots; how to improve mid-range and long-range shots (3-point shots).

Improving short-range and under-the-rim shots

• All short range shots, both to the right and to the left of the basket, must be performed with a rebound from the backboard and an aiming point.

In principle, nothing new, this is exactly where all shooting training in every sports school begins: they teach how to throw from the backboard, and the ball must touch the upper corner of the “square” drawn above the ring. The ball should touch this corner softly (remember reverse ball spin when throwing) and bounce into the basket. In order to concentrate the thrower’s attention on the aiming point, you can stick a dollar sign or a picture of a sight there. Remember: the shield is your best ally, be sure to learn to throw with a rebound from it.

• Practice clean throws from under the ring and clean throws with a rebound from the backboard from the second "antennae".

So, let's figure it out. Clean throw- This is a throw in which the ball falls into the basket without touching the ring itself. To achieve such a throw, you need to throw very softly, with reverse rotation, finishing with the brush. Such throws require extreme concentration and change of trajectory from the basketball player. So, we make 5 shots from under the ring in a row, 3 of which must be clean. If it is very simple, then add the number of throws up to 10, trying to do everything cleanly. Throws can be made with a rebound from the backboard, but the ball should not touch the hoop itself. Challenge yourself - and pass this test with honor!

Mid-range and long-range shooting improvements

• Again perform clean throws: 5 shots in a row from one point.

By the way, for me clean throws are big problem: the peculiarity of my throw is that I, as it were, load the far arch, “strike” which, the ball falls down. But here’s the problem - if the ring is a little higher than usual, then almost all the balls go into the near arc, and while I get used to it, I miss it a lot.

This task allows develop stable throwing accuracy. Five throws in a row help improve accuracy, because the shape of the throw, the effort applied, the trajectory - all this should be the same and repeated all the time. Clean shots force you to “raise” the trajectory, and this is also good: they are more difficult to cover and, as a rule, the ball will fall into the basket when it touches the ring. And one more thing: a high trajectory generates a short rebound, which will be easier for partners to compete for.

• Execute several free throws in a row, before leaving the site (training).

This move will allow you to repeat all the elements of the throw again and develop confidence in your abilities. After the throw, you pick up the ball yourself, return to the free throw line, and shoot again. It is important to repeat the entire routine that occurs before free throws in the game. In order to recreate even more realistically game situation just add jerks to the exercise: throw the ball, make a dash for the ball (to the middle of the hall, etc.), return to the line again and throw. Players can be stimulated by some kind of competitive effect: who will spend the most time completing 5 (7, 10) free throws in a row - running, doing push-ups, carrying a partner to the locker room, etc.

• Follow 200 free throws daily for 5 days, or 500 on the first day and 200 in the next 4 days. Goal: 25/25 shots, of which 15 will be clean.

Here you need to understand that you will need at least 1 partner who will “bring the cores”. In America, of course, this is not a problem; there are personnel there who receive money for this kind of service. But here it will be more difficult; we will have to look for like-minded people. According to Jay Wolf, such series of shots will help hone the form of the shot, the moment of release of the ball and the trajectory; and also - will increase the accuracy of 3-point shots. Again, according to Wolf, 100 throws will take 15 minutes.

I once tried to shoot such a series of free throws. My technique is this: I squat a little, then straightening my legs and straightening my body, I simultaneously straighten my arms. As soon as the body fully straightens (I also stand on my toes), the ball is released. It turns out - like one movement. So, from such lifts, my calves quickly began to hurt, my arms were tired, and my hand refused to twist the ball. But some results did appear, so the exercise is useful, even very useful.

• Determine the places from which you throws most often in games– and practice your “crown points” by performing at least 5 clean throws in a row from these points.

I already wrote about this in an article about ways to develop a throw (), it didn’t turn out exactly the way I imagined it in my head, but it’s still very informative and useful.

• Practice your throw correctly marked area, in a correctly marked shield. The court must have a properly drawn 3-point line.

And again I’ll complain a little: why in our country is everything done by those people who have no idea how it should be? Why are basketball markings made by people who have never played basketball and don’t know what a baseline is? As a result, it passes under the front arch of the ring. And the “three ruble” - why is it 6 meters on the right, and more than 7 on the left? Why?

So, try to choose good sites with the correct markings. And another note: at first it is very difficult to throw with a rebound from the backboard, if the backboard is a streetball one, i.e. much less than standard.

• Retain your hands after throwing, as if guiding the ball into the basket until it gets there.

Here it should be noted that in his video about the throw, the legendary Pete Maravich(lessons from which will appear on the site soon) recommends not holding the brush fixed, but rather wave 2-3 times after the ball, repeating the final stage of the brush.

• And once again about the type of throw: good throw, this is the one that 60% of the time is not covered by the opponent and reaches the basket.

The idea is that by doing these types of throwing workouts, you will be able to develop your confidence and improve your throwing consistency. And the belief that now you can score is a very cool thing.

Another little piece of advice from me personally: visualization– this is a thing that really works (someday I’ll write about it in the context of developing throwing skills, dribbling, muscle development, etc.). So, if, when releasing the ball towards the hoop, you mentally imagine how it will fall into the hoop, pleasantly rustling the net, the percentage of completions may increase. The main thing is to believe!

8. How should you throw a tennis ball so that it definitely comes back to you?

9. B bookcase One scientist has two books on one shelf. The first book stands to the left of the second, next to it. The first book has 230 pages, the second 325 pages. How many pages do you think there are between the first page of the first book and the last page of the second book?

10. Two mushroom pickers brag to each other. The first one says: “In 5 weeks I collected 10 buckets of mushrooms.” The second one says: “And in 2 weeks I collected the same amount of mushrooms.” In how many days will they collect 10 buckets of mushrooms, working together?

11. The compass needle, as you know, points north with one end and south with the other. Is there a globe such a place where the compass needle points north at both ends?

How did he do it?

15. There is a road on which only one car can pass. Two cars are driving along the road: one from the mountain, the other downhill. How can they leave?

Answers:

1. This person is a midget and cannot reach the 17th button... But he can reach it with an umbrella or ask someone to press this button.

2. A ball carried away by an air current is at rest relative to the surrounding air; therefore, the flags will not flutter in the wind in any direction, but will hang down, as if there was no wind.

3. If a spherical or oval egg rolled away, it would move in a straight line. But asymmetrical eggs, in which one end is blunt and the other sharp, tend to roll in a circle when rolled. If the egg is in a precarious place, such as on the edge of a precipice, the tendency to roll in a circle rather than in a straight line will be a good advantage.

4. No, because in 72 hours it will be midnight again.

8. Throw up.

9. Between these book pages there are only bindings.

10. In 10 days. Solution: the first mushroom picker collects 10 buckets of mushrooms in 35 days, and in 70 days he collects 20 buckets of mushrooms. The second mushroom picker collects 10 buckets of mushrooms in 14 days, and in 70 days he collects 50 buckets of mushrooms. Therefore, acting together, in 70 days they will collect 70 buckets of mushrooms. As a result, they will collect 10 buckets in 10 days.

11. Yes, there is such a place. This is the south geographic pole. No matter which direction you go from it, there will be only one direction - to the north, because everywhere around it is north. Therefore, the needle of a compass placed on South Pole, both ends will point north. Just like a compass needle placed on the north geographic pole of the Earth, its two ends will point south.

12. Thirty-first (meaning the day of the month).

13. They placed him close to the wall.
