Of course not. I have watched cody shoot in an empty gym though. It was not pretty. I have shot in empty gyms. It was beautiful.
The coaches have been tinkering with his shot. He's been shooting differently as a pro than he did before. You can see it in the highlight packages above.
Im sure Cody outshoots you by a wide margin in an open gym
Good god I would hope so. I appreciate you comparing my shooting to an nba player though. Thanks. Anywho, shooting has always been easy for me. I have played with many players in rec games, high school bball games, pickup games, church games, college players, and even an nba player once (Ronnie Price, though his shot was money) etc who had inconsistent shots like cody does at times but I never had those issues regardless of the scenario I was in while shooting. My shooting was much more consistent than the dudes I was playing against. Just like some nba players have really consistent shots vs their peers who have inconsistent shots.
And what about after warming up with dancers? Was your 3P% always 100%?
Debatable
It was pretty funny. I was young and attractive back then and had a decent amount of swagger and confidence and I was feeling good about the fact that I was about to make some decent money so I was back there showing off my ball handling skills and hitting on the dancers at the same time. 2 different times they started bringing the ball racks out onto the court and I was headed out and then the buzzer would sound and the refs would be getting the ball to the inbound position and I get ushered off. I was pissed. They ended up giving me 200 bucks and tickets to the next playoff game which was a decent consolation but I bet I would have made like 6 or 7 out of 15 (probably would have made 10 of 15 if there was no crowd/pressure) and made some real nice money.
Lol, that’s too bad. You missed out on a chance to make some good dough and a date with a dancer.
He’s shooting 34% from 3
Don’t know or care.
Alright man, carry on.
Why would you think I’m triggered?
You were denied your shot at greatness. But got back at them by getting us all free ticketsI was so close to getting to shoot 15 threes on the jazz court during a playoff game with sellout crowd once. I ended up getting ****ed though and im still pissed about it. I told Eliza the story at the summer league game we attended.
They said they never had the time to get me out there due to the timeouts being the short variety and then the end of the quarter coming up and they had an act that needed their court time. I think they didn't let me out there cause they didn't want to pay me a ton of money (it was $200 per made shot) and they had seen me warming up with the jazz dancers in the tunnel and saw the skill and confidence oozing from my pores. lol
It could be many things, but as a former D1 shooting coach I can tell you a lot of it is in game confusion. What I mean by that is when we correct form, it is easier to use a modified form when shooting lots of reps in practice, but in game shots often revert to the old form or something in between, and those are often really bad until the player makes the new shot instinctual. And some never do, which is why we don't often fully reform a shooters shot just make tweaks.
