Question
Hey I just wanted to know, how can I shoot like kobe bryant? If you could send pictures or just give me your own method I would be pleased.
Hi Sweet,
I will look into pictures and see what I come up with on Kobe. Let me ask a question, why did you pick Kobe instead of Rick Hamilton(Detroit)? To me Kobe seems to be all about natural talent as he falls away, leans, twist and shoots. He seems to be more acrobatic. Hamilton on the other hand seems to more of a pure shooter. Something you can work on. With the way Kobe shoots, it's you have it or you don't. With Rick Hamilton he shoots the classic way, squaring up, coming of picks, and under control. Watch him in the NBA Championships and see how nice his shot is. I will see what I can come up with if you still want to shoot like Kobe. Good luck!
