Hey shooters! This is Ryan Tapp on behalf of Expert Village, and this is an introduction to shooting a basketball. Thanks Ryan, hey shooters today we're gonna learn about how to shoot a basketball. Before that, let's just get down to the basics...and make sure that we are all ready for this amazing exercise because by the end of this, we are gonna be top notch shooters. Okay, first off, you are gonna have to make sure that what you are wearing is fit for basketball and fit for shooting. Wear something that is kind of light, where your arms will be freed. Make sure your shirt is untucked, you don't want anything pulling or restricting you as you shoot your basketball. Secondly, make sure to wear some tight fitted shoes, something that is tight enough so that you don't roll your ankles, and you won't hurt your feet. But at the same time you should be able to put a couple of fingers in there. So what we're going to do is we are going to go over some techniques of shooting, we're going to go over our basics and we're going to go over some basic shots, and then after that we're going to go over some advanced shots. Remember when shooting and when playing basketball don't lose confidence if you don't feel like you're hitting all of you shots. It's important to note that even the best basketball shooters in the world only hit fifty percent of their shots. Okay? So just continue to practice, keep getting that ball and going out and shooting whether by yourself or with others.
