The Basketball Jump Shot
T ake for example my jump shot. As you can see from my sports
art this player has a nice jump shot with a nice hand and arm extension above
his head. It is suppose to be an easy shot to make from a distance but I could
not do it very well from any distance. Frogs have a better jump shot. A
Kangaroo Rat could jump higher than I could.
And, even if I could get off the ground I was easy to block – being
short. And being short the only thing I can dunk is cookies into milk - and the
only good move I had after that was dribbling – dribbling the milk out of my
mouth.
This basketball art painting of the jump shot made me think of the
Golden State Warriors in the NBA Western Conference finals and there struggle a
couple of times over the season and in the playoffs. Even though a player might feel great and “in
the groove” it can be very frustrating when your shots are not sinking through
the net – or you become the bull’s eye for every other player on the other team
because you are a great player like Curry.
So, what are the Golden State Warriors suppose to do? Back to basics to find a way to get him back
in a groove - into different shifts and rotations and working them flawlessly
and forgetting the physical discomfort.
Now, how is that for a bunch of platitudes with no real constructive
thoughts? I listen to the sports
commentators and that is about all the obvious comments I ever hear.

Now, that is certainly not the problem I ever had when I played
in pickup games at the gym. I was not
like one of those players on the Warriors that could meet the challenge at
either end of the court. I couldn’t even
meet them half way.
