![]() Is Swish-Only Shooting Appropriate for Me?Īnyone can use swish-only shooting. It’s called Swish-Only Shooting and it’s very simple. I could write a whole article on where to look when you're shooting (and I might in the future) but for now, I want to focus on a training technique that follows the "aim small, miss small” advice. Aiming big would be to just look at the whole basket. Aiming small would be to choose a rivet on the rim. The idea of “aim small, miss small” has clear parallels to shooting in basketball. But if you miss the shirt, you miss the entire target. If he misses the button by 2 inches, the enemy’s still going down. In one scene, Bradley Cooper is going through sniper training when his instructor gives him a piece of advice that stuck with me, “aim small, miss small.” The instructor tells him to aim for the button on a man’s shirt rather than the whole shirt. Fingers crossed.The movie American Sniper, follows Bradley Cooper, a legendary Navy Seal who becomes one of the most lethal snipers in American history. If the Knicks have had one team’s number this preseason and season, it’s the Cavaliers. Hopefully the Knicks snap their four-game skid then. But as a pure scorer, he’s the best I’ve seen. He’s not on the overall level of MJ or LeBron. Quoth Ian Eagle: “Easy Money Sniper.” Durant really is. New York now leads the all-time series 101-99. Nets analyst Sarah Kustok pointed out this doesn’t just give the Nets a shot to win ends of quarters now it gives them practice for end-of-game situations they’ll encounter in the postseason. With eight seconds left in the first quarter and three seconds left in the third, Steve Nash had Durant check back in for final offensive possessions. The group most responsible for the league’s existence as a profit birthing machine is the only one not to share any of the spoils. Fans should organize and work toward this. What do the fans get? Why not subsidized ticket prices? Parking? Concessions? Put your money where your mouth is. ![]() You know how all these announcers and players and coaches and executives talk about much live fans are missed, how it’s just not the same without them standing and cheering and expending their expendable incomes? The networks, owners and the players expect the fans to come back ASAP. KD took the first shot and hit, and the muscle memory from hundreds of Knicks-Nets/Mets-Yankees/Rangers-Islanders games had me bracing for that salty sumptuous partisan roar from the crowd that never came. There was all this juice right at the jump, the feeling you miss before a big game, an intracity game. diffident? Tight? Not himself, not from the start and not for almost the entirety of the game. I will happily trade hearing Kris Kross, Europe, and Van Halen at lower levels if it stops people from screaming germs all over an airspace they share with dozens of other people.ĭurant entered tonight with the second-highest all-time scoring average at MSG, trailing only Michael Jordan (credit to the YES pregame show for that diddy).Īustin Rivers looked. On the YES broadcast, Ian Eagle said he’s noticed the sound effects and arena music are so loud around the league that coaches are removing their masks in order for the players to hear them. They forced the Nets to burn consecutive timeouts late trying to inbound, but for whatever reason the league changed the rules a few years ago to let teams inbound from the frontcourt to the backcourt, ‘cuz we hate late drama, right, sports fans? Notes The game was never in doubt, but the Knicks did the “give ‘em hell” crowd a bitter, dragged-out death they could be proud of with a 14-1 run the last few minutes to pull as close as five. He’s like watching a shadow dominate a basketball game. And while all the Nets played a part in the dominance, Durant is obviously the nuclear deterrent, the biggest difference between one team chasing honors and the other merely honorable effort. You’re not gonna think DAJ had seven dimes and the 5-foot-11 Chiozza hauled in a dozen rebounds. I’m always a little embarrassed to not use “respectively,” but why? I know you can follow basic patterns of language. Seven of the nine Nets to play reached double figures the two who didn’t, DeAndre Jordan and Chiozza, chipped in 12 rebounds and seven assists, respectively. Reggie Perry’s 11 points were a personal best. Bruce Brown scored 15 and had a career-high 14 rebounds. The third quarter saw Joe Harris hurting the Knicks from deep, on cuts to the basket, and driving and dishing to teammates. For the first 88% of the second half, the Nets maintained cruising altitude. The game was never close after halftime - sort of.
