VIDEO: Gobert is developing a smooth jumper

All he needs is to be able to hit that shot at the top of the key when he's open. As it stands they don't even guard him there with the ball in his hands.

If anyone is stupid enough to be 15 feet out contesting a Gobert jump shot then that's perfect for someone to cut to the basket.
You saw the part if I said he became good, right? It will be easy for bigs to recover and contest with that release point, especially if it is a slow release.

You miss 100% of the shots you don't take. If he's wide open from 15-18, he's got to start shooting and making some of those. If he can hit most of his wide open jumpers, it only spreads the floor for others.
 
"smooth" might be a reletive term but I like the work.

I wish we could get one of those tennis ball machines that just launches basketballs at Rudy for him to catch.

Leave him in the gym with one of those for 4 months, he'll average 18ppg
 
It's slow as ****.

It's a lot quicker release than we have seen from him in games and if he can shoot it like this in the games, it will be quick enough because they aren't guarding him out there. If they come out, he just needs to pump fake and go in for a slam dunk.
