Today we're going to talk some more about shooting. I've been talking about shooting a lot recently, but I want to go even more to even more, even more practical level today when we talk about what you know, shooting workouts, shooting drills, how you can get the most out of them. And I think this is a big key when it comes to helping you become a great shooter. So I wanted to talk about this today. When it comes to developing shooting, there's a lot that goes into it. And I just dropped a podcast a couple weeks ago talking about the five steps to becoming a great shooter. So if you guys have listened to that, make sure you go check that out. It just goes more in depth into this and it's going to help you when it comes to like, okay, from the ground up, how do you become a great shooter? Go, what process you need to follow. So that's important too. And that combined with what we're going to talk about today, I think is where you really can mesh these two things. So very important. You guys also check out that episode if you've not seen it. And the other thing is a couple weeks ago I dropped my shooting program, the Elite Shooter System. And the response to that has been awesome. So far I've gotten messages, gotten comments on it, talking about, oh hey, this is great. Hey, I really like this one thing that you guys have. I've gotten a couple DMS and a couple of comments talking about the reactionary drills, which I'll probably talk about more at some point. But I thought that was a really cool thing that you guys are getting value out of. That was awesome. But a lot of what we're going to talk about today is also included in the classroom, which is like a part of the elite shooter system. Because kind of my, my, my thought behind it is I don't think it's enough to just do drills, right? I don't think just having workouts and drills is enough. I think that's obviously a big part of it, but I think maybe even I think equally as important is understanding the context for why you do stuff. So why do we work on this shot? When is this shot important? Okay, so that way there's buy in from the player as well. So they know, hey, you know what, I'm not just doing this because coach says do it. I'm doing it because actually going to help me be better. And so there's film breakdowns, IQ talks, mentality, confidence, all that sort of stuff we go through inside the inside the elite shooter system. And part of what we're going to talk about today actually is probably something that we're going to talk about in the system as well. So that's a big part of it too. But shout out to all you guys who are inside the elite shooting system already. There'll be a link to join in the description on YouTube and on Apple podcast or Spotify. So if you guys are interested, check that out below. But like I said guys, I want to go even more specific with shooting when it comes to workouts, drills, formatting, when makes misses. Oh, do I choose you for make sure for attempts like what should I do for my workouts? I think that's a question I've gotten and something that actually I've been talking about with a couple of different coaches recently is like, how do you develop great shooters? What's the, what's when it comes to your drills, your workouts, like what do you do? Like what's the best way to go about it? And I think it's a great question. So that's what I want to talk about again. I want this to be incredibly practical too. So you guys can take what we talk about here and literally go apply it to your next workout. Go apply it today. Okay. Or tomorrow. You guys can do, go do it now and make yourself a better shooter. Just, just right off the bat doing that. So I think that's My goal for today's podcast. So the ultimate goal, guys, when it comes to shooting, is to build game consistency, because it doesn't matter how good of a shooter you are in practice. It doesn't matter how many makes you have in practice. It really doesn't. At the end of the day, the only thing that matters is how consistent you are, how many makes you can have during actual games. That's why we practice. We practice to be better in games. We don't practice to be better at practice. Okay? That's the first kind of mindset has to be broken, is that, oh, you know what, if I go and I make, you know, a thousand shots, then I'm going to be a better shooter than that guy because he only made 150. That's. That's, I think, is a mindset that we're going to have to break. We're talking more about that, but what we don't want to do is just chase makes in practice, because that can sometimes be misleading. That's not always. That's not always the. The final telltale sign of who's the. Who's a better shooter, who's. Who's the best shooter, who made the most shots. I think I've talked about it a lot, but it's not just about who puts in the most amount of work. Right. If that was the case, then there would be a lot of players who probably should be in the NBA right now who aren't. I would venture to say that the 450 guys in the NBA right now have not worked necessarily more hours or harder than the next 450 guys who aren't in the NBA. Right. So you take the top 900 guys in the world, only half of them are in the NBA. I would venture to say that player number 600 didn't necessarily work less hours or work not as hard as player number 400. I. I don't think that there's really a difference. In fact, I think it's very possible that Player 610 worked harder than Player 511. I think it's very possible that's the case, too. But there's obviously way more that goes into being a great player than just how hard you work. Okay. And I've talked about that before, but I think this is, again, a mindset that needs to be broken. It's not just about what you do. It's about how you go about doing that same thing. Steph Curry is the best shooter to ever walk on planet Earth. Okay. Does that mean that Steph Curry has spent more time in a basketball gym shooting than anybody else? I don't. I don't think so. I don't think that Steph Curry has spent more time shooting a basketball than anybody else, and that's what makes him the best. Has he spent a lot more time than most people? Of course, obviously, he's put in a ton of time, a ton of reps to become as great as he is. But I don't think it comes down to, oh, Steph Curry shot the ball 1 million times, and, you know, Damian Lillard only shot the ball 990,000 times. I don't think that's. I don't think that's what comes down to who's the better shooter. Sometimes people like Steph, for example. I don't think there's ever going to be somebody. I shouldn't say ever, but I think it's going to be a while before we see anybody who's remotely on his level, because right now, he's. He's in a league of his own. There's nobody else you can compare to Steph Curry. There's other guys who are great, but there's no other Steph Curry's out there. And I don't think that it's a work thing. Oh, those guys just didn't work as hard as Steph Curry, so that's why they're not as good of shooters. That's just not true. And that's. That's the point that I want to be able to make right here, is that it's not just about how many reps you put in. So one of the, you know, one of the things I want to talk about just quickly, like I talked about, guys, we did. I did a podcast couple weeks ago talking about the, like, the step by step way to become a great shooter, the processing to follow. So just kind of to run through that, like, very, very quickly. And again, go check this out, because it's way more in depth than this. But essentially, you have to build great form. You have to work that form, and then you have to practice the important shots that you need to be able to make. And that is kind of the gist of it when it comes to becoming a great shooter. So one thing that we got to talk about is specifically, what should the reps look like in your shooting workouts? When you're doing shooting drills, what should your reps look like? You know, the question becomes, should you shoot for attempts or should you shoot for makes? And I think it depends on what you're trying to accomplish with what you're doing. So if I'm working with a player and we're trying to master a certain move, right, or we're trying to master a certain sort of footwork into a shot, then we might only do like, we might do five attempts, because I might say, listen, we got to get five good reps here where our footwork is great or the move is great, and I might not even care if we make or miss the shot, right? Did we create space on the shot? Was the footwork smooth? Was it efficient? Was it consistent? That might be more important at the time than just the makes. And I think that's one thing to consider is that you have to know what you're working at, right? If we're trying to work on perfecting a certain move or a certain sort of footwork, then it's a lot of times counterproductive to say, oh, we've got to make 25 of these also with perfect form, right? Because when you're first learning something or just trying to perfect something, then that can just be kind of overdoing it, right? Because the shots probably be harder. Can you do the shot 50 times in a row? Perfectly? Not always when you're starting out with it. So that's one thing to think about. In some of my workouts, especially like in the perimeter score system, a lot of our drills, like a lot of our. A lot of our workouts even will be for a certain amount of shots, not even for a certain amount of makes, because I want to ensure that you're going as hard as possible during those attempts. So if we go for five attempts, then that's much easier. That's much more of an. Of an assurance that you're going to go a hundred percent on those shots, which is going to be better off for you. Because you get. When you get to a game, the reps where you weren't going 100% aren't going to matter to you, because if you weren't going 100% game speed in practice for those reps, then it's basically wasted reps. So for me, it's more important that those reps are great than it is the arbitrary number of makes that we have. Because at the end of the day, like I said, guys, it doesn't. The amount of makes isn't necessarily as important as people like to make it seem. So, you know, sometimes having to make 10 shots of something isn't the best thing. If it takes you 30, 40, 50 attempts, especially when you don't have a rebounder. And I know a lot of you guys work out without a rebounder. So this is specifically applying to you guys. And so again, in that sense, six high intensity reps might be better than 20 low to mid intensity reps, depending on what we're trying to work on. So again, it'll depend a little bit on what you're working on. So if we're working on like a certain, a certain separation move, I may go for lower attempts or a low amount of makes because I want to make sure that it's high intensity. But if it's catch and shoot three, then typically it's going to be less taxing anyway. So you can go with a higher amount of attempts or a higher amount of makes and it's not going to, you're not going to see a drop off as much when it comes to the, especially because you don't, you know, the intensity required isn't as high for the most part. So that's something to, to, to consider. But you know, people are really obsessed with the numbers. And again, like how I've been alluding to it, but like, everyone's like, oh, you got to go out, you got to, you got to make a thousand shots a day, you got to go, you got to make 500 shots a day. And that, that can go for literally any number that people want to throw out there. And, and I don't think that personally, my opinion is that this isn't the best way to approach it always. Okay. I'm not saying reps are important. I'm not saying you shouldn't go out and get a ton of reps. But I'm saying that again, the way you do things is as important as what you do. Okay? It's the, it's not just about going out there and arbitrarily trying to chase a number. So I think that it's possible to have 120 make workout that takes an hour. That's going to make you better than if you were to spend three and a half hours going through a 500 meg workout. I think that it's very possible that you get more out of that 120 minute workout than you would have that 500 make workout because again, you only have so much energy, right? You don't have unlimited energy. You're not a robot. So when you go out there three and a half hours, you can guarantee that probably three, two and a half or three of those hours are probably pretty bad. Bad intensity, right? You can't go 100% for three and a half hours straight. You just, you just, you can't do it. You can go 100% for an hour straight. So we can make sure that that whole entire 120 meg workout is really good intensity. And therefore the translation to games is going to be significantly higher than it would be if you go through a 500 make workout. So especially like I said, shooting by yourself because, and this is really where I need to preface it, shooting by yourself is what I'm referring to. Because if you're by yourself, then you got to chase on every rebound. You got it like that. Obviously you got to pass to yourself. If you have a rebounder or rebounding machine, then getting up 500, a thousand shots, making 500 shots, isn't that, it's not that crazy, right? You can get up, I mean, you can make 500 shots in an hour, right? With, with you have a rebounder, like someone rebounding the ball for you, or you have a rebounding machine that you can get up a lot of makes semi quickly, depending on how good of a shooter you are as well. So that's part of it. When you're by yourself, which again is a lot of you guys. And even if you're not always by yourself, like a lot of times you're going to be, you're not always going to have a trainer with you, not always going to have a coach or a teammate with you. So when it comes to the hours, the unseen hours by yourself, are you getting the most out of them? And I think a lot of times players overdo it with trying to chase arbitrary numbers. You got to make this amount of shots. Well, I think it's more important that you focus on the intensity and that every rep that you take is a game like rep, I think that's going to be more beneficial for you. So the other day, guys, quality over quantity. That's what you have to remember with any sort of workout that you do. But especially when it comes to shooting, putting the ball in the basket, low quality reps aren't going to help you, right? You don't need them, you don't want them. High quality reps are what you have to chase after. So instead of chasing after, I got to make this amount of shots every day, I got to listen, I got to make this amount of high quality shots every day, high intensity. The effort has got to be there, the energy has got to be there. I've got to make sure that this is high quality. So again, if I try and do a 500 make workout by myself. Chances are when I'm three hours into that workout and I still have 200 or 150 makes left, the intensity is probably not going to be great because I'm like, man, I still have 150 makes left. You're going through the motions at that point. You're, you're probably going through it real robotic, not really think about anything. And then you get into a game where you have to read and react to things and, you know, make quick decisions. And like, you don't get a million shots, you have one shot you have to hit. It's just completely different. So how well does that actually translate is the what I would ask? And I would, I would say probably not that well. I think that's where a lot of players mess up, is that they think that because they have a certain amount of makes that they're a great shooter, and that's just not the case. So again, quality guys over quantity. It's not just about what you do, but it's about how you do it. So let's talk about. Again, I want to make this practical. Let's talk about how we can actually go about doing this. So the first thing obviously is go for lower, make lower attempt workouts. So if I'm going to go for makes or misses, I'm going to go listen, okay, I'm going to say I got to make 100. You know, my workout is going to be 120 shots, right? Or it might be 200 shots. And I might work in different sorts of drills that are going to allow me to get those shots in, but they're going to be high quality. I might do a workout, it might end up being 120 attempts. But if all those reps are high quality, especially depending on the shots that I'm shooting, then it can be a very, very beneficial workout. So when it goes to that, when you're by yourself, keep your reps or your, your makes lower because it's going to allow you to, to get more out of that workout. So the next thing to think about is we want to make practice harder than the game. Okay. And the. I think it's a big point to add pressure to your shot. I think if you want to become a great shooter, then your shots in practice have to mean something. There has to be pressure behind what you do when you shoot the basketball in practice. And that's one thing that I talk about in the classroom inside the elite shooter system is you can make drills transfer better to games by Adding pressure to each shot, you can make a drill that might be easy. You can make that a very difficult drill just by adding a certain requirement or certain. Certain, you know, stipulations to completing that drill. So, for example, in a team workout that I had this past week, we were working on a couple different shots out of our workouts, like an action or an action out of our offense. And so we were working different shots out of that. So essentially, we were setting a pin down. One guy would. Would tight curl off that pin down for a layout. The other guy would pop out for a catch and shoot three. And we work that until we would get. That group would have to get four perfect sets. So four, two for two. And then we'd rotate spots. So everybody would work at every spot. But we couldn't rotate spots until both guys made their shot. Four for four sets. So now all of a sudden, that puts pressure on that guy shooting the three because his team made the layup. If he misses the three, then the. The. The set doesn't even matter, right? So you start to think about, like, okay, I have to make this shot. Like, if I want to get, you know, my teammate's got to run for this layup every time. If I want to, like, help my teammate out and make him not have to run and shoot a layup every time, I've got to make my shots. So. So it adds a certain amount of pressure to that drill, which just makes it more game like, it makes it transfer better when we actually are in games and need to hit shots. So that not only increases the intensity of the drill that we're doing, but it puts those guys in the mindset of being shot makers, okay? We're not just going through the motions, like, oh, if I make the drill, if I make the shot, it's cool. If I miss it, it's cool. No, if you miss the shot, it doesn't. Like, you have to make the shot, because if you don't make it, we're not. We can't move on. We can't go to the next variation. We can't work on the next sort of shot out of this action. We can't move until you make your shots. So it puts guys in the mindset of being shot makers. I'm going out there, and I have to make shots, right? So when we're in games, you already have that mindset, that approach of I have to make shots. It's what I do. I make shots, okay? So that's a big part of why I decided to do that, there's levels to it. You can make that more challenging, less challenging. But of course, like, I think that's a super important mindset to develop as a shooter. And at the end of the day, guys, if you want to play, you have to be a shot maker. If you want to win, you have to be a shot maker. Whatever you want to achieve in basketball, become a shot maker. And it's possible for you, okay? If you can put the ball in the basket, if you can be a bucket getter, then so many things can be, can, can be discounted, right? There are guys, again, in, in the NBA who physically, like, they're not holding a candle to anybody, right? Every, everybody who plays in the NBA is a really good athlete compared to the normal person. Okay? If you play in the NBA, if you play professional basketball, then you are a great athlete. But comparatively, there are plenty of guys in the NBA who could walk onto or who could be probably on, on a, you know, Division 2, Division 3 roster and not be the best athlete on there. But they, they're incredible shooters. They put the ball in the basket. They are bucket getters. And because of that, they are, they're extremely valuable players in the NBA. Okay? And it's like that at every level of basketball. There are plenty of guys who physically, athletically aren't anything special, but because they can put the ball in the basket, they're valuable to their team. So developing the mindset of I have to be a bucket getter, like I need to make shots, then that, that translates so well and puts you right where you need to be when it comes to being a shooter. So we don't shoot shots. We make shots. I don't shoot, I don't go through drills to shoot. I go through drills to make shots. And that's going to translate to not just the drill that you're doing, but every other drill that you do as well. So that's what a drill that helps to accomplish. And another way that you can add pressure is to force shots made in a row. So if you're by yourself or working with a partner especially, a great thing to do is just force yourself to have to make shots in a row. So you know, for example, you might do, you know, the typical five shots, five spots around the perimeter, you know, the baseline, wing top, other wing, baseline. You might do instead of that, you might say, okay, it's got to be five makes, five spots, but we have to go five makes in a row before you can move to the next spot. So now all of a sudden, it's not good enough to just make one shot and then miss your next one. Like, no, you got to make. You got to make shots in a row. You got to make five shots in a row. You can make four shots in a row, and if you miss your fifth, doesn't matter. It wasn't good enough. So what kind of mindset does that develop for you? Because now when you get to a game and you only have to make one shot, right? When I catch the ball off a driving kick, I just have to make this shot. I'm so used to in practice, I have to make five shots. It just. It's easy, right? Like, okay, cool. I got to make one shot. Well, listen, I got to make five shots in practice, so this isn't like this. There's no problem for me. That's the mindset that's going to help you to develop. And there's so many ways that you can approach that. Now, five makes in a row that. That sometimes, like, you might not be there, right? That might not be your level of shooting. So maybe you go. And it's not necessarily about the level. It can just be. I want to quickly get through this. So we're going to say three makes in a row, right? So, okay, five. Five spots. You got to make three in a row with the next spot. Even just. That adds a level of pressure to what you're already doing. A drill used to do back in the day, back in high school, all the time was 4x7 shooting. So it'd be seven spots around. You got to make four shots in a row at each of those seven spots to move to the next one just adds an immense level of pressure to what you're doing. I think another one that's great is the name of it. I think it was 9 for 10 shooting, but it's another one where. So you have to make 10 shots at a spot and you can't miss. So it's five spots around. You're gonna make 10 shots at the spot. You can't miss two in a row. So if I shoot, I make my first one, I make my second one, I miss my third one. I have to make that next shot or else if I miss it, I'm back to zero. So I made my first one, I make my second one. Miss my third one. Okay, I make my fourth one. Cool. I'm at three makes. I make my. My. My next one. So I'm at four makes. Then I miss my next one. Cool. I gotta make the Next one, I miss it again, back to zero. So it puts you in the mindset, okay, if you missed a shot, you're making the next one. Like, you don't miss two shots in a row. So there's a lot of ways. And again, doesn't have to be 10 makes, it could be five makes. You got to make five shots from a spot, and you can't miss two in a row. Just another way to develop that mindset of being a shot maker. I can't. I don't go out there and miss shots. Like, I have to go out there and make shots. So again, adding pressure is a great way to develop that mindset of, of being a great shooter. And again, there's more stuff we can go to. So one of the shots that I work on a ton and I talk about a ton, if you guys, you know, are. Keep up with anything I do. Again, talking about in the, in the elite shooter system I talked about, I just put out a video in the classroom talking about the most important shot in basketball. And that's a drive. The driving kick three. So the relocation three. And inside the elite shooter system, inside the perimeter score systems, really, it's like any workout that I do, 0.5 decision workout on YouTube. Any, like, any workout that involves some sort of shooting typically is going to involve relocation, like way on the wing or whatever, hitting shots coming off of that. So another thing I like to do is we'll work 5, 6, 3, 4, 2, 2. So all that means is that I'm going to work, you know, shooting from the wing, and then I'm going to. I'm going to relocate down to the corner, shoot there, relocate back to the wing, shoot there. I have to repeat that until I go five for six. So make my first one, make my second one, miss my third one. Cool. Okay, so now I have to go. So I'm two for three right now. That means I can't miss any until I get five or six. So I'm in my next one, then I'm three, four, five. Good, five or six. Now I'll go to the opposite wing, do the same exact thing. That's set one. So set two. I got to come back to that first wing now I got to go 3 for 4. Okay, so same exact thing. We're going back and forth, three for four, Boom. Next side, three for four. And if I don't go through four, then I gotta, I gotta, I gotta go till I get three for four. So if I miss two in a row, boom. Like I Gotta go till I make three out of four. So it doesn't matter if you make two in a row. If you can't make three out of four, doesn't matter. So again, it puts you in the mindset of, in a game like I, this is way more difficult because in the game I got to make one shot. But now I've been so used to having to make five out of six, you know, if I'm in a game and I shoot 45 from three, that's a pretty great percentage, right? Obviously I don't know what that, what that would, what the number would be, but if I'm in a game and, or if, let's say over a season you shoot 45, that's a great percentage. You're a great shooter if you shoot 45 from three. Bill, in practice there are drills where I had to shoot 83%, right? If I got to go five or six, I got to go 83%. So it just gets you in the mindset of making shots. And I think that's, that, that's another draw I love to do. You can also add that in with like series too. So for example, I might have a four shot I posted on YouTube and on Instagram a four shot series coming out of a bunch of just different off ball action. So there was a, an away screen and pop pin down. I think it was a drift in that as well. And then there was like, it might have been another, some sort of wing screen. But if you guys go to my Instagram or go to my YouTube, I posted a four shot series that you can check out. But like a great way to add pressure to that is that you've got to go three. So we might say, okay, you have to have four sets here of three for four, four for four. So if you make three out of four shots, that's a good set. We got to get four of them. If you get, if you only get two out of four, if you start off two for two, that's great. But if you miss your next two, then it doesn't matter, right? That's something to consider. You, you miss your first shot, well, you better make your next three and maybe we'll even say, okay, listen, we're going to go. You've got to get either four sets of three for four or two sets of four for four. So it incentivizes you to be a shot maker. If you can go perfect, then you, you don't have to run as much, right? So that's just another way to get you in the mindset of making shots. And I think that's a great way. Just again, that doesn't. That doesn't need to be every drill. I'm not saying every drill needs to be. You got to make this amount of shots in a row, but I'm saying it's great to have certain drills. Maybe you end every workout with, okay, I got to make three in a row of five spots. And you just get you in the mindset of doing that. I think it's a great way to develop game consistency because your practice becomes more difficult than your games do. When your game. When the game happens, you got to make that one shot and you get points for it, right? If you hit one shot, you get three points, and you hit enough of them, your team wins. But in practice, if I am. If I make three in a row, I only make two, and I miss my third one, then I get zero points for it. It means nothing. There's. I get nothing out of it. So, again, that's why I love. I love forcing multiple makes in a row. It just makes things significantly harder and it gets you in a great mindset as a shooter. So highly, highly recommend you guys look to do that as often as you can. And. And I think that is going to take you guys to the next level when it comes to your mentality and your confidence, especially as a shooter, when you've been forced to do something difficult. Than it makes being in a game, having to make one shot makes it feel like. Feel so much easier, right? It's like when you go and, you know, you're at the gym, right? And you got a real heavy medicine ball and you know, you. Everyone's done it where, like, you know, you throw the medicine ball around, you work on your chest pass with the. Or even just like the heavy basketball, you work your chest pass or you work your bounce pass, and you pick up regular basketball. And it's just so, you know, so light fit feels just effortless to throw the ball around, right? It's the same thing with that. When you force those difficult sets of making this many shots in a row, boom. When you get to a game and you. All you do is make one shot, it's just. It just feels easier for you. So developing that mindset, I think, is super important. So again, just to recap, guys, keep your quality high, Quality over quantity. When it comes to your shooting workouts. You don't have to get up a million reps. I can have a great workout that's 120 makes where we're going to start off with some form, shooting some stuff in the paint, and that might be 50 makes right there. I might, my first 50 makes might be all form stuff, all stuff close to the basket in the mid range, all that sort of stuff where we're working form, building form cement to become confident with your form. Then we might work some, you know, some, some sort of separation move in the mid range. That might be 20 makes. Okay. And then, you know, at that point we got 50 left. So I might have, you know, 10, I might have 30 makes around when it comes to like relocation stuff. And then I might have 20 makes coming off of a series where I have to make a certain amount in a row. Boom. Like that's a great workout. And you can go through that whole thing with high intensity. So quality over quantity. Always don't go chasing after arbitrary numbers of makes. Chase high quality workouts. That's going to be much better for you. When it comes to, again, it doesn't matter how well you shouldn't practice. No matter how many shots you make in practice. It matters what you do when the lights are on, when it's game time, when it actually matters. And then the second thing to keep in mind is that you want to make sure that you challenge yourself. If I'm working with somebody who's a great shooter, like my players can really shoot the ball, I'm going to find ways to challenge them. Okay. You might be able to make like, we'll do drills where I'm like, okay, we got to make seven spots. Or we might work like a, like a backpedal three or a slide to the corner three. All right, we got to make seven spots right here. They might go through and make seven in a row. Okay, cool. Well, it looks like that's too easy for you now. We got to go through this four shot series and you got to go three sets of four in a row. And that's where they started. Feel the pressure a little bit. So it's all about finding ways to challenge yourself and adding pressure to those shots so that when you get to games and you got to make one shot, it's nothing for you. Okay. Super practical. A great thing to implement like right away that you can do. And I think again, that's going to help you guys significantly when it comes to creating guys who can and girls who can shoot the ball consistently in games. So again, hopefully that helps you guys out. Something I've been thinking about a lot recently. And again, if you guys enjoyed this podcast. You're an Apple podcast.
