    So I looked up this "Paul Phan" on Facebook, and it turns out we have 3 mutual friends. Small world.

    Do not understimate Paulftsk. My game has improved because of his great offensive basketball insight. Pump pass, shoot. Now I know how not to get my shot blocked. Thanks Paul!

    Good video and very instructive for the novice player. The important part is the 8 dribbles which serves to lull your defender into a relaxed state so you can spring the quick release on him.

    I have 6 mutual friends with him too.

    And the people who are hating on paul...unless you want to prove it on the court you have no right to say that he sucks and would get blocked etc. Paulftsk is putting the challenge out there, it's up to you to accept brahs. It's not like he's running away from the challenge.

    Someone step up and challenge him to a 1v1 and upload the video.

    #1, you're shooting from your chest
    #2, you had to bank it in
    #3, you cannot be serious

    I think I see you playing in the rec. Maybe it's you, idk. But I'll just remain mysterious for the sake of avoiding awkward encounters. I'll def be watching you(?) now, though.

    I guess you could use a quick-release on a jump-shot. I don't see why you wouldn't try to shoot a normal shot instead with correct form. If a guy is that close where he can block it, you probably shouldn't be shooting it in the first place. I would fade away instead.

    A quick-release is probably better suited for running hooks, layups, floaters.

    My friend was there when this was recorded. He said it only took him 3 shots to make it. :eek:
