The follow through is totally irrelevant because the ball has already left the shooter's hand.

Wow. Do y'all even watch NBA games? It happens often. Especially on 3point shots. Yes, hitting the arm a split second after the ball been released can affect a shot. I cant believe im arguing this.
Dude, how you believe this is astounding

Yes it would because it is a learned motion. People aren't doing things that are completely unnecessary if they don't have to do it. It is ingrained in the shooter/pitcher. These people practice the same motion millions of times to make it a science.

After a shooter releases the ball, a meteorite could come and blow his right hand off and the shot will not be changed or altered in anyway. Lester, I am dissapoint son. Rummel needs to fire their physics teacher

A shot comes in a split second. The refs have a hard enough job seeing when the contact takes place. That's why they can only assume the foul happens in the act of shooting the ball. You can't tell if the wrist or hand was hit during the actual shot or after it was releasef in real time. And I have rarely seen a foul if you hit the player after you can tell the ball has been released.

That doesn't change the fact that once the ball leaves your hand, you are no longer exerting force on it. Therefore, anything that happens to you after the ball is no longer in contact with you is irrelevant.

The follow through is important because you are using a precise amount of force to shoot the ball, the follow through is just a result of the force exerted. It in itself is irrelevant to the shot, once the ball leaves your hand.

This is fricking science

Not affected in the slightest bit. Not even a millimeter

Why does the shooter have an inherent right to follow through on his shot? If a defender is chest to chest with the shooter and has his hands straight up, isn't the shooter encroaching on his right to that space?

Until LE concedes that the examples he's talking about come from the shooter anticipating contact, this may be the low point in LE's long MSB career.

Right. It's funny no one addressed the picture and post with Steph Curry from the last page.



Apparently you think that you can shoot a basketball the same whether your follow through is like

(WRIST ANGLE AT TIME OF RELEASE)




(NORMAL FOLLOW THRU)

Dude, this is getting out of hand. If you dont anticipate the contact. Your motion up until the release of the ball will be exactly the same. Which is all that matters

If you don't think routine is a thing then you are stupid. Plain and simple. Also, that was to that isolated post, not the original question. I understand physics.

This is what I said on page 2.

quote:

Also, there is a feel as a shooter. If someone gets up in your grill as you shoot you shoot a little different. You know when someone is closing in and goes for the block if they have a chance to do it. That will alter the shot and is less likely to go in, and is a great play if you block the shot. I pretty much think this rule is a punishment for the defender missing the block since he more than likely altered the shot, but fricked up and missed the ball and hit the shooters hand. It is to help the shooter and to make sure the defender does not just sell out and hit the shooter's hand all the time. No need to add this to the game.

Except that you are exerting force on the ball for accuracy and trajectory.

You're trying to shot the ball into a hoop. You aren't just randomly throwing it in the air.

Again, no its fricking not. Well it is, but its secondary to putting rotation on the basketball. Try putting rotation on a basketball without a follow through. Try shooting an accurate ball with no rotation.

There's a reason this method of shooting has evolved to what it is today.

It's not simply "to exert force".

HOLY frick. If you dont know contact is coming YOUR ROUTINE WILL BE EXACTLY THE SAME UNTIL RELEASE.

after its out of your hand, without touching it?

and you're arguing that you can do this stuff without touching the ball any longer.
