It helps with the stroke and accuracy BEFORE release, not AFTER.
at least you can admit it has something to do with accuracy. Bravo to you

There's no point. You're goingto say ridiculous thing after ridiculous thing regardless of how many times logic smacks you straight in the face.

Last one. So you're saying follow through happens before the shot now?

Explain to me Lester how the shot will be effected now that it has left his hand

he's shooting a wide open 3. I assume he was able to follow through and land without any contact

Following through is important because it creates a reference start and end point to the shot that is repeatable and can be ingrained as habit. Yes the motion of flicking the wrist forward puts rotation on the ball, and consistently following through promotes accuracy by standardizing the shot so that there are as few other variables as possible, but these things only occur as the hand is still touching the ball. Following through ensures that you do the middle stuff right as opposed to cutting the shot off short YOURSELF.
It's like people telling runners to run through the line. If someone impedes your follow through after you release the ball, it's exactly like a runner hitting an invisible wall erected one inch past the finish line. Their time will be exactly the same, just as the shot will be unaffected. But you're trained to do it so you do the stuff right before it right and don't anticipate slowing down or stopping your wrist.

Not it's not. If you don't "run through the line," you'd slow down. Someone hitting your hand after shooting is nothing like that.
A better analogy would be a runner unknowingly getting hit by a wrecking ball right after crossing the line.

Not running through the line is like not following through.
Hitting an invisible wall one inch past the line is like getting fouled after release.

The runner thing is prob the best analogy ive seen in the thread, and while I agree with the premise, Im not sure shooting a ball is as controlled as a runner crossing the finish line. I'll have to think about that more.

Not for what we're discussing. We're talking about someone impeding follow through after the ball leaves, not a shooter willfully not following through.
