Supplies: Basketball, Basketball goal, and a pair of hands.

Step 1: (B)eef

 B-Balance.                       

                                              To have a good basketball shot you must have good balance. Before you do that though you must grab the ball, and face the basketball goal. Then have a slight bend in your knees This will give you a solid base. You don't want to be swaying while you shoot. To have even better balance you need to have your feet shoulder width apart. Make sure you are facing the basket or goal. This is important because it is very diffucult to shoot with almost no stability.

Step 2: B(E)ef

E-Eyes

                E-stands for eyes you need to always have your eyes on the basket it is very hard to shoot without your eyes on the basket while you are shooting. It can sometimes be very tempting to look at the ball, but remember if you follow those rules you will have great shot form.

Step 3: Be(E)f

E-Elbow                 

                           The next step to having a great shot is your elbow. You need to have your elbow dirrectly under the ball so you have great control over it. Your non-shooting hand should be on the side supporting it. Not shooting with it. You should be able to lower your hand without the ball falling off of it. If the ball was a clock your hand should be on 6' O Clock. This will give you alot of power to shoot the ball through the rim.

Step 4: Bee(F)

F-Follow Through


                                 This step is probably the most imortant of all the other ones the follow through. This is so important because the follow thru will get backspin on the ball which will help it go in. The follow through can also be the hardest to do though. After you have followed all the other steps, you need to push up with the ball and roll it off your finger tips towards the basket. The last thing to touch the ball should be your fingers. You need to picture like your hand i trying to grab a cookie, and the cookies are in the rim the hand must go over the rim. This will help you get arch and will help you be more accurate.
