Re:Help with Basketball Practice - 2007/08/14 21:53
Thank you for all the input. These past few weeks i've really been working hard on that drive.
Im getting there and i can't tell you how happy i am. For some reason one day i just seemed to be getting to the hole easily. I'd make a strong drive and beat the defender, then i would pull up. So as beating the defender became easier, i started to take it all the way. I'd use the runner a lot, but as i keep playing i'll get to the hole easy and have layup. Now im just working on finishing around the basket. I think that will come as i get to the hole more often. My confidence has just blown up this week. I have never improved so much these past few days. One thing that has helped a lot is getting low on the drive and drving by the defender not around him. Also i don't hesitate anymore. A defense collapses i still go without any hesitation. One guy showed me some pointers on defense and im starting to lock up the offense.
I used to have struggles breaking the press. But as my handles, vision, and court sense gets better i break it without much trouble.
Now right now my main goal is just to try work on my court vision. People call it Tunnel vision.
Thank you for all the help you guys have given these past few months. Im off to highschool in a few days and my game is at its peak. I couldn't be happier.
I made it my goal to develop a drive this summer, and it has developed tremendously.
