Coach - Nice video. We are working with our kids on the various hook shots. We classify them as Classic hook shot (like Mikan), Sky hook (like Jabbar), Jump Hook (like Duncan), and Half Hook (like Hansbrough). The Half Hook seems like the more recent vintage of the Hook Shot. The body is not perpendicular to basket (or shoulder to basket). Rather you open up more and the hand release is half-way between a true hook shot release and a floater type shot. It appears that this demos a half hook shot. You call it a baby hook. The player is not shoulder perpendicular to basket, but slightly open. His hand slightly rotates to the right to accommodate the open position. Am I correct on the current lingo for hook shots? Is the baby hook really what I am referring to as the Half Hook? Thanks. Don

What I want to do next is I want to incorporate another little finesse move called the baby jump hook shot. Again, we are going to add a little bit of finesse to the game. It is so hard, it may not be a role physical drill but it is important to people developing nice soft touch around the basket and banking it off the banking board. Now take it off the board and lay it in, baby jump hook.

Developing a nice touch around the basket, if he get tires his way in, he still has to develop a nice touch around the basket, if he misses it, he is putting it right back up like a live action. He is doing a real nice job developing a nice touch. He is putting it right back up like a game situation, doing a real nice job. Again, let me emphasis power is very important in a game of basketball. Again, I am a firm believer that you got to teach power first before you teach finesse because kids will go to the finesse game and not mentally ever want to go to the physical game if you teach them finesse first, but today we went straight physical play and now we are on a nice blend of finesse basketball.
