Worded that way I can see the confusion about release and foot placement.

The right foot tap admittedly makes it dicey, does he jump off 1 foot (his left which is behind the line), or still both and just have them staggered where depending in your freeze frame you’d think he did? I maintain he leans back into that left foot, right foot elevated, then jumps with his left and 3 but i can see in real time how its slightly arguable. Either way thats a tough *** move. I eat hes more of his videos since he started messing with BallisLife I didnt realize he is 6’6. He’s about to be at the Big 3 combine too coming up

Yeah, he started off playing in the Verse 1 Federation 1v1 down in Austin and next thing I know after Covid he’s east coast/west coast BallisLife and going all over. He’s got a scope, no doubt.

Stuck in the 80s with that Bully Ball Mentality
That James worthy/Chris Webber quick baseline spin works every time

You hit it as soon as you catch or do you wait a while to pull it off?
I know Webb changed his timing up on it as the game went on.

I mix it up. Sometimes I hit the quick one. If it’s a dude with little man syndrome, he’s catching a shoulder first, then the spin.

You can also lean on them, give them 2 hard backdown bumps, they’ll brace for the next one and lean in and thats when you spin off. Will leave them stumbling forward every time. 100% effective

I wonder what Lethal gets paid for this session or if it’s more of a networking thing
Cuban shot is the slowest thing I ever seen. If a defender was on him, or he was huffing and puffing up and down the court on a 5v5 game, I bet his shot % would drop to 10%

Has to be a lot because he has been offered jobs by at least 5 teams iirc but he prefers to just do his videos and have his clients. No way a team is gonna pay a shooting coach more than like 5ms right that’s what a head coach makes

it would not necessarily have to be that he is making a lot, i can imagine the trade off he might have to make to be a coach for a team could not only potentially limit his clientele but also his time so he may not have thought it worth it…that said he probably is making a nice chunk of change tho

I dont see how if you’re Westbrook, Giddey, or Simmons especially you don’t hire Lethal Shooter and give him a wing of the crib and let shooting take your game into the next stratosphere

i’d bet with most guys at that level, with some exceptions, it isn’t really mechanics/technical stuff…it’s more mental(ity) in game. in warmups/shootarounds they prolly knock down shots consistently but in the game, some guys aren’t confident with the shot/are more confident in their other abilities
for simmons especially, there was a criticism/thought that, even tho his form is fine lefty, he should be shooting with his other hand.
even tho the game is much different, i think of how long it took jkidd to be nice with his spot up 3 but (granted it was towards the end) it didn’t really change his game tho

Ben’s form is not fine 
But yeah I think most problems are mental for not just him but other brick layers. Or a mental issue that prevents them from fixing their physical shot form.
If Lethal were to be a personal shooting coach for a guy like Ben or for a team, whether it’s Brooklyn or another team, and you don’t see their shooting %s trend up, I feel like the mystique of Lethal shooter goes away. His whole brand takes a major hit

by fine i mean sufficient, not weird, glaringly problematic, and/or hitchy…such that it isn’t really a big issue with his mechanics, dude really just be putting up bricks
there could be a ‘mystique’ aspect too, but i’d imagine a guy like him would take those odds if that’s really what he was on…if anything, i would imagine that job opportunity will be open to him if he keeps his name/rep good; plus isn’t he relatively young?
