your shot. As a scorer one of the best things you can do is use the rim to protect your

shot from eager shot blockers. Now a lot of the time you are going up for a normal finish

you're going to have some sort of shot blocker in the area that is going to be maybe really

really tall or can jump really really high and is at least going to challenge your shot.

What you can do as a scorer is use the rim to protect the ball away from the shot blocker.

So let's pretend I've beat my man off the dribble and I've got a defender right here

in front of me. You can go up and straight challenge them if you want to but if they

are a good shot blocker they are probably going to get to it. Instead what you can do

is you can use some sort of move to cross back over to the opposite side of the rim

and then use it to protect the ball. Most of the time a shot blockers hand is not going

to come across through the net or through the rim to come get a shot. So you see big

time scorers always try to get to the opposite side of the rim because it gives them an open

look. Alright let's check out how Kyrie Irving does it. Kyrie is awesome at this move because

of his great vision and ball skills. HE is not the most athletic guy in the league and

that is why this move works perfect. So as he begins his drive he sees LeBron as the

help side defender he gets LeBron to bite by rocking the ball to the right side of the

basket first. LeBron leaves his feet to block the shot there as Kyrie switches the ball

to his left. This keeps the rim between the ball and LeBron James' hand making it impossible

to block. If you enjoyed this video hit the like button below or subscribe to our channel
