how to get better at basketballs?

Question

im already good at basketball. i shoot about 90% from the free throw line, and 75% from the three point line. but what i suck at is left hand layups. i take about 200 a day but don't make any. my right hand layup is great. how can i make left hand layups. im right handed

Answer 1

wow. i have to say i dont believe u can make 75% of free throws. test your self again and make sure u have a standard court, cus nba people cant even do 75%.

left hand lay ups - footing is very important. stand about at the free throw line.

take a dribble and step out with your right foot and the same time. you should now be about 1 or more feet from the free throw line.

now u can proceed with a regular layup. pick up the ball and take the next two steps. u should end up jumping off the right foot and shooting with the left hand.


foot sequence: right-left-right

Answer 2

I doubt that you can make 75% from the three. Unless you made 3 out of 4 and counted that.
But one way to make your left hand more coordinated is too take a swishy ball (foam) and squeeze it about 400 times a day. Also eat ceral, also doing anything with your left hand works.

Answer 3

dude ... I'm feeling you!


I stink at those too!

i feel like i'm disabled with my left hand like its retarded or something..

i try working on them just practice but it never gets any better if practice isnt working for you either id just either always do reverse layups.. just kidding

um.... i really dont know what to say except im feeling you

i cant do anything with my left hand

but seriously i mean 90 percent free throws and 75 percent on three pointers i wouldn't worry about it that much

Answer 4

Dude, if you can shoot 75 percent from 3 point territory, than why do you even need lay-ups?

Answer 5

You keep doing them until you die MAN!!
