As a engineer when you shoot from far you want a low release point to increase the spring load action to cover a longer distance and to account for arc. When your closer you need a higher release point to reduce spring action. Im a habitual mid range shooter so I have a high release point. Even at the 3 I just spring hard from my hips. Lots of physics.
To get the maximum out of your shooting, you need to earn atleast a Masters degree in physics. Thus, I nominate all physics professors to be shooting coaches 😆
I definitely change my shot in the mid range. For threes, I have a one-motion shot(I try to emulate Steph’s form). However, for mid range, I try to emulate Iverson off the dribble, especially when I’m going across the paint.
Just a little bit more specific: if you have a spot up midrange shot, you don't have to change it, only do what Cole showed when shooting off a dribble
If u have a spot up midrange game u need to change ur a game a little ur not getting many catch and shoot midranges ever in a game. Nor is there prob any play ur coach is drawing up a catch and shoot play of having soemone stand idle Idle in the midrange and the rare times u catch the ball midrange ur prob going into a move to a pull up fade or step back not riding up and shooting
I do have a different form on my mid range shot than my 3s. But, it's not a two motion shot. I usually do more of a floater kind. As a smaller player, I get into mid range shots by either beating or faking out a defender. I don't elevate over the defense (unless they're shorter).
I know you are not that BIG on block shooting and neither am I. However, for a midrange shot that requires elevation and higher release point, repping a lot of dribble pullups with different footworks could be more beneficial. What do you think? Thank you for great content BTW.
Any thoughts about mixing in your "default" one motion shot (ie three pointers) while developing form on the two motion midrange? I find that working on it only two motion for chunk of time throws off my timing for my regular shot and leads to some problematic compensatory movements. I like to vary long threes, threes, and midrange to use all set points while keeping the release consistent. However that doesn't leave as many reps for the midrange.
Here's my problem that you probably don't hear often: Instead of a flat shot, my shot has a super high ark; to where I often miss very short, especially from 3pt line-onward. Any tips?
My midrange was really good back in high school coz I was usually taller than anyone else on the court and I had a really high release too. Problem I kept running into was because I could just shoot over people the defender would keep landing under me and I ended up tearing the ligaments in my ankle in both of my final two seasons. Was such a shame.
Damn that's a shame hope you had a successful recovery. I just met someone the other day at the park who had a knee brace tore his ligaments back when he was in high school and he's never fully recovered from it. Scary
What about the opposite? If a player has a two motion shot. Mid range & HS 3 is good. But has trouble when it comes to extending their range shooting college, pro, NBA 3’s? So the issue is fluidity & energy transfer when shooting Pro & NBA range 3’s

I’m similar with 3 and in muddy I usually hang for a sec because I’m more off balance and I got a higher release point
I try to make my threes like steph and my mid range like Klay
What are your thoughts? Do you have different shooting forms for three and mid range?

@@antiisolation4thats how i play though lol. rip hamilton game. but im not in a league mind u. its def a dying thing on elite levels
Find myself fading away most times in the midrange to keep my shot motion. This was good advice. Appreciate it
I thought it was only me with two different shots. One motion shot for the three pointer & two motion shot for the mid

I used to only have one shot and made another one for my midrange because I realized I couldn’t use the same shot all the time
best channel ever

Bro I thought this kinda video don't exist pure gold for me
Check out my Virtual Academy training programs! www.byanymeansbball.com/virtual-academy
I just wanted to learn this, thanks a lot for the video.
Can you do a complete workout?
2 motion mid range is the easy part shooting one motion is the hard part for me?!
opposite for me, rip
My shots are always short. Any solutions ? They are straight tho

Love doing it that way! Adding in some variability is huge + helps keep feel for both types.

try to aim to have your elbow just above your eyebrow when you release it usually helps you focus on pushing the ball up and out
@@bigounce9125 what about if more if you got a higher arc and pushing the ball through only builds bad muscle memory
I can't shoot sht in the midrange till I lower my arc arc only ain't bad when you shootin 3's as long as it ain't too high
