Re: Can any shoot jumpshot with either hand?
haha that's awesome.
one of my friends can shoot pretty well with his left hand though he's right handed, but of course would never do it in game =p

Yeah, I can shoot jumpers, layups, and hooks with either hand. But, I've always been able to write with both hands too.

Re: Can any shoot jumpshot with either hand?
No way I can but Greg Oden was a beast in college, got injured in his right hand or shoulder i forget but then played half the season with the left hand and his shooting and free throw percentages didn't change, then went back and healed up and continued to dominate with his right

Oden injured his right wrist. His numbers did fall off with his left, but the guy still shot free throws left handed until near the end of the march madness. He developed a nice left handed hook from it.

Re: Can any shoot jumpshot with either hand?
i broke my right arm in gr.7 (was out for 3 months) so i just practiced shooting with my left hand. I can do each hand with ease now. It looks weird though with my left hand.

I usually shoot right handed, but my left shot is smooth and sweet. I go left and right exactly the same, use a sweeping hook to either side, and layups with either hand. You HAVE to at least develop a layup with either hand, but the jumper isn't really necessary. I shoot left handed from the right side and right handed from the left. It gives me a good angle on the back board.

Re: Can any shoot jumpshot with either hand?
i can do everything well with both hands except jumpshots. i can shoot left hand jump shots but they are flat, they normally hit the ring tho
