What is your favorite NBA moment? Tons to choose from, but as a shooting coach I have to go with Reggie Miller\u2019s 8 points in 8.9 seconds in the 1995 Easter Conference semifinals . That was one of the memories that stuck in my head as a young player.<\/p>\n

What is your go to move? When my team desperately needs a bucket I go to the Half Whirl. I would say that it gets you a clean look at a lay-up 80-90% of the time. If I need to get a shot up quick (buzzer beaters) I like to go with the step back move, it creates enough separation to get a clean look.<\/p>\n

Favorite hoops movie? Hoop Dreams<\/p>\n

Favorite NBA team? Sacramento Kings\u2026 I know, don\u2019t tell anyone. Every year I sit and watch the NBA draft hoping that my Kings will FINALLY make a good decision\u2026 I guess there is always next year.<\/p>\n

Best song to work out to? California Love, Tupac.<\/p>\n

Would you rather score 20 points or have 10 assists? 10 assists, some of them may have been 3\u2019s. The more points for my squad the better!<\/p>\n

What is the most important part of a jump shot? Hard to say, most of the mechanics work in unison to create a fluid stroke\u2026 If I had to say I would go with the follow through, wrist flexion is probably the biggest culprit of missed shots.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
