What are the characteristics of Paul George's shooting?

Paul George's shot isn't perfect, but it's extremely silky and full of charm. His shot is also a classic example of how the traditional shot has been transformed into the modern shot. In this article, we analyze the depth of Paul George's shot, the first time in the league Paul George and his idol Kobe's shot is very similar.

They are both two-stage quality-control shots with a high point of entry, characterized by lowering the center of gravity and lifting the ball at the same time, lifting the ball to the forehead with an obvious pause, and stretching the lower limbs at the same time as the arm is stretched to complete the shot. The power of the shot comes mainly from the muscles, and after George went through a big injury he began to adjust his shot, simplify the shooting action to speed up the speed of the shot, and eventually formed a more silky smooth shot today.

Today, George's shot is 1.5 segments, with fewer pauses and a higher degree of fluidity. It utilizes the strength of the lower body to throw the ball through a relaxed upper body. First of all, we look at the lower limb power of George shot, George shot the ball quickly drop the center of gravity, a small range of knee flexion and ankle joints take the lead in driving the body wide and deep suction, that is, the forefoot's rapid stirrups jump, which can make full use of the elasticity of the fascia as well as the force generated by the tensor reflexes to shorten the time of accumulation of power to improve the speed of the shot. The traditional jump is muscle-driven, while the modern jump is fascial elasticity-driven. Secondly, George's upper limb part of the shot, George has a very soft touch, in the shot his upper limb is fully relaxed, but contracted but not collapsed is in a state of elasticity. George shooting fast shot technique, shooting hand empty hand heart holding the ball, five fingers natural slightly open, wrist drive finger dialing the ball fully bending the case, out of the middle finger and ring finger finger is pointing to the ground. George out of the arm is not completely straight, which also utilizes the elastic force of the upper extremity fascia, but also accelerates the speed of the shot.

Lastly, the shooting stance, Paul George uses a narrow distance stance side shot, George's shooting stance, feet slightly spread over the shoulder, left foot facing the basket, right foot slightly beyond the left foot to the inward rotation, forming a slight that puts the stance. This provides more stable foot support, while the slight left lean of the body balances the body's center of gravity on the jump shot. This is due to the fact that the body's center of gravity will be to the right when shooting over the right shoulder. Paul George's shot is not perfect, he shoots with a large angle between his arm and body, and the fingers of his shooting hand are turned out, resulting in a dispersion of shooting power and greater difficulty in directional control. This is one of the root causes of his erratic shooting.
