Bingo!

Reese gets her numbers because of her height but she has poor fundamentals when making a move to the basket and especially near the basket. She shoots from the hip with this bullshite alligator armed shot. Whatever happened to a jump shot where you extend your arms upwards and flip the wrist for the shot. With her 6'3" frame, she would be hard to block and it would make for a nice fundamental shot

you also don't have to be a basketball coach to know that women have smaller hands than men & they can't exactly palm/control the ball. They shoot from the hip for longer control of the ball to actually take their shots.



You don’t have to palm the ball to shoot a layup. We aren’t asking them to dunk.

with a small hand - you need more control. it's biology. and it's not an apples to apples conversation like you're trying to force.

Two players up for Top player in the Country and Freshman All American and two Freshman All-SEC 23-1 #3 NCAA WBB,
Maybe All teams should shoot from the hip I’ll pass this on to Fundamentals guru which is our Men’s Coach , they can’t seem to shoot from anywhere.

Watch a proper layup drill. All women, none shooting from the hip

YouTube


Those of you pretending women aren’t skilled or equipped to shoot a proper layup are simply making excuses

Even a girl out of the crowd at a Maverick’s game can shoot a proper layup!


This is how it’s done!

so you're saying there is a difference in strength and athleticism between the women and the men?

shite, they give them a basketball the size of a volleyball to play with




I mean, they do give them a smaller ball???

"Basketballs used in the NCAA are between 9.39 and 9.55 inches for men and 9.07 and 9.23 inches for women."

She’s also not dribbling and doesn’t have someone tying up her other hand so she can do a proper gather and layup.

If you’re gathering one handed you’re going to start lower. It’s not uncommon at every level.

Angel is a great player,but she has NO shot. She’s need to really work hard on developing a shot from the middle

Horrible fundamentals


We need you out there to show Mulkey how it's done. Finish up your double cheeseburger, onion rings and diet Coke and head on over to the practice facility to set everyone straight.

Most females, even elite females, don't have the upper body strength to shoot a true jump shot.

I didn’t see South Carolina shooting underhand layups from the hip?
Maybe they did and I never noticed?

Now address shooting underhanded layups
Layups are just that - lay up. It's supposed to be underhanded. You don't shoot a layup, you lay it up.
