ive been playing bball for a while too…and i make good shots…make sure you follow through with your shot…use your legs…thats where the power comes from and get some arc…without that your going to get a huge bounce back from the rim to your face…hope it helps :)

you just need 2 practice until u get the hang off it i used 2 hav that problem 2 but then i shot a lot like 50-100 shots a day from diff spots and then sumtimes if i couldnt sleep or sumting i would grab a basketball and practice the shooting form where u lay on ur back and u flick the ball upward if it doesnt come straight back down in a straight line right 2 ur hands then its wrong and try lifting ur elbow or moving ur hands thats wat u do if the ball goes forward or behind heres a website that also might help http://www.powerbasketball.com/040414.html good luck
