Creating Space to Score!! Chase’s Blog — How to Shoot a Basketball –
Have you ever wondered how to create space so that you can shoot over or slip past the defense? www.shotscience.com This week Chase discusses how you can create space, which will allow you to get your shot off or, to drive to the hoop. It may seem counterintuitive, but you can do this by closing the space between you and the defender. This sets off a chain-reaction that develops into a “mini close-out” situation; deadly to the unsuspecting defender!! We look forward to all of your comments! Thanks so much for all the support! We’d love to get a video response from one of you! See you next week!! Be sure to check out our website www.shotscience.com and Chase’s site www.shotscience.com -Tom

We’re actually going to have a video on this down the road. Our advice for now is to fake to the man with the ball and make him make a decision. Keep an eye out for the video.
i am 12 and i have just started playing basketball. most of my friends are about half a foot taller than me. wot height should you be to play basketball
MrDr: Basketball is a great game because you don’t have to big, even though that helps. There are great players who are not big and they are sensational. Allen Iverson is not a big guy. Our suggestion to you is to work on your BB skills and become very proficient in ball handling, shooting and defense and coaches will consider themselves lucky to have you on their teams. At 12 you have at least 4-5 years of growth and you may pass up your friends. Lets practice!!!
you dont have to be any height, you can be small and still play, just look at nate robinson, he aint exatcly big compared to the majoritie of players in the NBA
maniac: You are on it!!!! Good call.
but nate robinson has mad hops and is only good at dunk comp cuz of his height
Thank’s now when I play 1 on 1 the opponent does not knw what is coming at them but some of them still catch up with me or I get block from behind
hey good stuff man
Thamad: BB is all about growth. Growth comes from being very open to new ideas. Go for it and let us know whats goin on.
can you dunk? im just so curious you have a all around great game bro just wonding can you stufff it in:)
aj: Chase can dunk even though that is not a major part of his game. God blessed him with long arms.
a thank for showing me that i was dooing it opposite .also i these tips really do work thank alot.
Thanks for the comment! Glad we could help and keep us updated with your progress!
hey man, great vid! i go to a small Christian school and i get to play point guard. i pretty quick off the dribble, but i am a terrible shooter if a defender even puts a hand up 3 feet away. any pointers o getting rid of that “shot anxiaty”?
chris: The problem your are experiencing is from a lack confidence. It’s really tough when we wander if the shot will be blocked, miss the target or we loose it. If we worry about all the negative things we allow the negatives to rule! Be very positive when you shoot the ball. It’s in and good when we shoot and not a sure miss. If you have watched my son Chase in his highlights you need to know that he never considered that he might miss the shot! Be positive!!
thanks! i’ll try that
