Player The Uncertainty Realm of the Improved Jumpshot of Jeremy Sochan

[Ariel]

I thought Sochan's shooting form look fine in his offseason workout video....

Now it regress to Markel Fultz's level....

I take it you were never introduced to Ben Simmons offseason shooting videos...

Again, it wasn't about the makes in the videos; his shooting form was completely different. Ben Simmons form has never changed.

Do any good nba shooters have a hitch in their motion? Why doesn’t anybody tell him “hey no hitches today” or something to that effect

Yeah, that's such a dumpster fire. If I were the coach, I would teach him to shoot left handed. I could probably get him shooting a decent percentage with good form in one off season.

Tyrese Haliburton’s shot ugly AF. So was Kevin Martin’s back in the day. Devin’s isn’t exactly pretty or text book.

The important thing isn’t actually form,it’s repeatability. Good form just usually makes that easier.

Fun fact: the year Haliburton came out, GS had one of their two lottery picks. They brought in Hali for a workout and for interviews. Steve Kerr told him to never let anyone “fix” his shot.

BTW, love that Julian told off Dusty.

Dom Barlow over here.

Guys like Wesley and Barlow came out real young and needed more time to develop into serviceable players. You could see the talent if you squinted, but again they just need more time.

Most of the draft are 19 YOs. They were both just really raw, especially Barlow, who played for OTE, which isn’t much more than gym runs.

Like old man Kerr knows anything about shooting. /s

Those guys shots certainly aren’t Ray Allen kinds of pretty, but no hitches at least. The Sochan shooting is just a mystery. So many changes in such a short span, he knows his whole livelihood is dependent on figuring it out and yet it continues to regress (both in form and result).

I am grateful to no longer be in the Sochan business but wish him no ill will going forward.
