People don't do this because set shooting you can control your body better. He doesn't go down far enough therefore does not get enough leg power which causes his arms to throw instead of guide. He needs to get power from his legs and his shot will be more fluent. A jump shot could do that for him. Not enough power equals overcompensation of the shot and will cause the shooter to miss right left and when he has them on line and they are short he doesn't have enough power but is in control. Simple mistakes that happened when he was young therefore he is in the habit now. Hard to change

leg strength/push is one of the least important factors in free throw shooting. unless we're talking about someone extremely weak
all this boy needs is proper mechanics and repetition. johnny needs to give eddie p a call
