Retail champ was looking like the bearded microwave there in that little stretch he had , .good job man, looked like fun.

daeve · 12-22-2016, 10:47 AM

yeah that was nice, I doubt anyone else is gonna have the clock going and the backboard lighting up at the buzzer. nice quick release too!

Rareairx23 · 12-22-2016, 02:03 PM

Got mine done today, tried to get to the gym before everybody else but no dice. Played in 32 out of 40 minutes in a game so i was a little gassed after, do think i could have made a run at 12g12 if i did this before the game. Thank you for the contest jin, very generous of you. I didnt say my name at the end because i knew i didnt have enough, so apologies for that, although jmarchand1981 can attest that this is me shooting

the mesiah · 12-22-2016, 03:58 PM

Rareair showing that nice form , good shooting man

Nice form on your jumpers, we have some ballers on this forum!

RetailChamp · 12-22-2016, 06:05 PM

Thanks guys! I was hoping for at least ten, but starting 0-4/1-6 definitely didn't help. I also just did the one take because we had to finish breaking down the gym after the tournament. Otherwise I would've gone til I won, haha.

It was a lot of fun, and I love the idea for the forum. A bunch of people mentioned it before, but next time we should probably PM the host and then have him share the links at the end or something.

I want to see more videos, win or lose, let's have some fun people!

Thanks boss! Used to play very competitive high school/college"ish" level ball, guess the old vets are right when they say the shot is the last thing to go haha

This is the best thread I've seen in a while...

the27guy · 12-22-2016, 07:56 PM

Heck! Actually made it to a gym. Tried about 15 times and the best
I could get to was 7. Switched to a nicer ball and then went 10, 9, 8, 8.... but couldn't do better. Started off 6 in a row once and then the wheels fell off.

Going to try again tomorrow, but man, I don't know. I have a shot at 13. But it was smart for te leader to post the 12 when he did. With another 15 attempts, I think I'll get to 12. 13 will take some awesome shooting.

The way i release, i have to hit almost every shot because my release takes a few seconds. I would have had to hit my first 6-7 in a row to give myself room for some error

I took a high of 16 shots. I'm shooting super fast compared to my normal shot.

I thought about tightening up my shot to make it quicker, but after a few practice shots i knew it would be a disaster if i didnt go with my natural release

The other centers are 6 3, 6,2 and 5,11 respectively. Size wise is 160, 250 and 260. Getting around the big dudes is rough, but stop the entry pass = turnover.

If you're as good as you say you are, worst case scenario you make it to the NbDL 😉😉😉
