I'm in if anybody else does it.
-edit- Did it.

For a gif you don't really need that much. Just upload the vid to gifninja (http://gifninja.com/). To get the right seconds off of a vid, you can use either from this list (http://www.makeuseof.com/tag/top-5-free-tools-split-merge-video-files/). All good all simple. I filmed with my weak ass photo camera, you can do it by your iphones or such.

Is there a simple way to create a .gif?

[kNIOKAS]

Is there a simple way to create a .gif?
ask faptostrph.,
I remember doing it there on gifninja (http://gifninja.com/animated-gifs/create).

Yeah well maybe I was supposed to post a tutorial on this but whatevs.

[TMacMagic]

My jumper is pretty much the same as Derrick Rose.

[Burgz V2]

i think my jumper looks a lot like Allan Houston's

[Rake2204]

So, it turns out I don't think I have a recorded jumper (that's not from really old zoomed out game film) on my computer. But I did tinker with the gif site and made this:

http://gifninja.com/animatedgifs/219833/ryholdunk.gif

I guess that's me shooting, technically.

[SourPatchKids]

Is that your car parked behind the hoop?

[LT Ice Cream]

Dang, you've got some bunnies. Can you dunk it without having to alley oop it?

[Rake2204]

Is that your car parked behind the hoop?
Yeah, she's a beaut, right?


Can you dunk it without having to alley oop it?Affirmative. Nothing insane though, so no windmills, no between-the-legs, and on most days, no real reverses.

I played for about 4 years regularly then went to Uni for three years and played about twice during the time. Have been back for about a month and back playing with my old crowd and all of my skills have diminished but my shooting has remarkably got better:confusedshrug: .
Have any of you guys ever had this?

Nice Vert, hows the your jumper and handles though?

[Rake2204]

Nice Vert, hows the your jumper and handles though?Thank you. I'm not sure if I'm really in position to judge my own jumper and handles though. I mean, I'm a player. And by that I mean, I'm not a random jumping guy who dunks but has not otherwise picked up a ball. I'm not sure if that's what you meant. Like everyone else, I have a lot of room to improve, but I feel both my jumper and handles are reliable and oftentimes advantageous for me against many levels of competition. So basically, I'm a player, I play a lot, and dunking just happens to be a byproduct of that.

Unfortunately, as I mentioned earlier, I don't really have recent footage of me shooting jumpers. The best I could provide would come from over ten years ago. So, here's what my J looked like back then, as a 15 year old:

And a random move out of the high post:

One of my primary shooting and playing inspirations growing up was Sean Elliott, and I think that can be seen in my old jumper.

Really nice for a teen. The jumpers kinda all based on a set shot, but it's cool. I like how you really go for the basket. Would be nice playing against you (but don't dunk).

Edited gifs into the main, please post more. Guys, it's really easy to make a gif and it's a free chance to cement your jumper into ISH forum. Cement it, dam!:rockon:

That's not regular rim, is it? Ha, I actually try to mix up my locale so the questions about the rim height can be more easily put to rest when the time inevitably comes years from now when I have to prove to my children that there was in fact a time when I could dunk:

No, if i can recall he broke his nose. Still don't know why, but i remember the floor all with blood.

Nice, seems like a quick jumper. I wish I had more of that smooth single motion. Although it looks like you're shooting from the center of your forehead, you might want it more to the right.


Anyway, CelticsGarlic stole the show with his court and Rake with dunks. Wee need more posters... I like how nobody commented on my J but liked CelticsGarlic. It's cool.

You need harder handles. From the looks, these may not fare well underpressure. I know, because mine's the same. You seem quick and that's nice. Jumper's fine but I think you should square shoulders more.

Fading comes from releasing the ball above the head rather than forehead, that's how you compensate the momentum from the whole body IMO. It's good, but it's bad also. Shooting a set shot one must lean towards the basket and direct the motion towards it with one's whole body. Must jump a tini bit towards it also. All goes into shooting right to the basket, whole body must be directed towards the rim. Anyway, it's not as easy to develop.

Sometimes I start struggling with the 3 so bad, I then make a conscious decision to use legs more and just jump towards basket. Gain efficiency instantly. But for me it's not yet a habit, and that's poor. Also, I'd like bring ball up faster and maybe less above head, more forehead. Simplier motion, quicker, less fadeaway...

Nice analysis and shooting part. Must agree with it. And yes my handles are weak.All I know is some fancy crossovers one will never use...

This isn't the portoguese basketball league, is it?

I don't know, I guess I expected much more because you're a pro, neither you or your teammates looks like pro's. Or, I mean, that must be old footage, right?

I have a hard time seeing how you would get a call from a D1 college if that's how you play today, I have only been here for a short while but even random players I've played against at the campus would abuse the players in that video.

[millwad]

Maga, why did you delete your videos?

I didn't mean to offend you, I was just surprised over the weak competition you were playing against and if that really was the current version of you..

Do you really play in the pro league in Portugal? I checked Eurobasket and there was only one player with your name in the first league and he was born in the 70's. If you really get paid for playing basketball you must hook me up and you're one lucky man! :cheers:

You shoot like that all the time? You are doing alot of fading/leaning every single time, kicking your right leg out and everything (even from standstill/set shots), try going straight up and try keep that right leg in while doing so... :)

This is vid of me showing my skills ( sort of ) in the post and shooting. Also tried to imitate Kobe, Dirk, and Jordan. Court was very slippery because it was raining couple of mins before.

Yes, that would definitelly improve consistency, that I need. Will try to work on that. Thanks.

[Jyap9675]

Celtsgarlic what a hoop you got down there! I'm jealous. Is that yours? How much did it cost?

[Jyap9675]

Btw you seem to be always fading away when you shoot.

[CeltsGarlic]

Well, its mine. It cost about 800$ as dads friend does this court business and most of the dirty work was done by me.

I know Im fading away a lot, and I cant effin help it. Once I tried , I completely broke my shot and all shots were short. So I guess I cant do nothing about it :confusedshrug:

[Jyap9675]

Ah alright well on the plus side, your shot won't get blocked hehe. But it could be tough to shoot 3s fading away.

What typw of floor you got there? Is it just painted concrete? It looks like something else.

Yeah, your front foot is sidewards. Wonder how you picked up that habit? Seems unnatural.

Awesome court, btw. :bowdown: I so want to jump off the roof and dunk.
