My hands are in teh right postiona nd my ellbows are squared but my problem is that instead of shooting while in the air, I bring my hands up in the right way but instead of shooting while in the air I shoot then jump basiclly. Now I have tryed shooting in the air but i keep getting air balls. any tips?

it would help you understand what is the influence of your height, the distance from the basket, the speed and angle of the throw. Don't forget that to increase your chances of making your shot, you should only shoot shots from distances from which you have had success at shooting previously.

The main thing to remember when shooting a jumphot is BEEF
(B)alance: The B in BEEF stands for balance. This means when you are setting up for your shot your feet should be shoulder width apart. So if you drew a straght line down from each of your shoulders, the line would hit your foot.
(E)lbow: The first E in BEEF stands for elbow. When shooting your elbow should be exactly under the ball. So your elbow and the ball will form a 90 degree angle. So right now your feet are shoulder width apart and your elbow isunder the ball forming a 90 degree angle.
(E)ye: The second E in BEEF stands for eyes. This one is very simple. When you are about to shoot keep your eyes on the target(rim) and picture the ball going in. Its very important you don't take your eyes of the target(rim)
(F)ollow through. The F in BEEF stands for follow through. After you shoot your shot if your right handed, and you close you right eye it should look like you fingers are in the rim. And the opposite for left handed its just the opposite.
Remember also of a layup: When shooting a layup you should always use the hand that is on the side you are on. You should also use the opposite foot that you are on. So if you are shooting a right handed layup youn would use your right hand and left foot. If your shooting a left handed layup you would use your left hand and right foot. When shooting a layup you should also use the back board for a guide.

be patient, practise alot, and keep your confidence high.
first, try to do jump shot around the key area. after you can make 5 in a row, take one step back, then do the jumpshoot again.
do everything systematically, and you'll be alright.
hope this advice can help you be a better player

i think you are thinking too much.
keep your body balanced square up and release the ball when you are at the top of your jump. it should feel smooth.
but honestly i am a great shooter i slump when i think too much or rush shots relax dont think and let it fly if that doesnt work you arent a natural shooter.

look on the rim in case you shoot sparkling, look on the backboard in case you're a economic business enterprise shooter. i think of I shoot extra effective when I actual have much less time to look, some human beings decide to have a sturdy long look. locate out what works best for you.
