u can use u up and under which is a pump fake and then step with your non-pivot under the defender to seal him off, the sky hook always works but u gotta get good at it, increase your verticle and u wont even need moves, u can just let your team shoot it then get the rebound and put it in by just jumping, there's a move that's really risky called the pummel and u are backing down on the defender and u throw the ball around their back with your left hand, get it on the other side of them with your right and put it up because they will b off balance if u do it right.  one more that i know works is just a drop step then a reverse layup on the other side of the hoop since they will b expecting u to just "go u strong" u will usually always get fouled.

You should do plenty of layups, make sure you can do it both right handed and left handed.  Do lateral side skips (as if you were defending someone)...actually, here's what you should do:  rent "Hoosiers" and you will see all the classic basketball drills when he's whipping the team into shape.  Those drills are still relevent today...if you do them, you will be better prepared for tryouts.  Or you could order the instructional videos at www.betterbasketball.com\n\nAs for endurance, if it's too cold to run, you could do jumping jacks for 20 minutes or more indoors.  Or skip rope.  Or you could get to the basketball gym early and run laps, or stay late and run laps.

you cannot learn basketball in a short period of time. to beable to just play street ball just play. the only way you can progress is by playing. you need to deff working on shooting. you dont need to be the best of anything, as long as you are alright at everything. you  may practice with many people instead of just one to begin with. working with others will make you learn the game better. learn to see the court, pass, shoot, play def., and pretty much everything. remember playing is the only way to learn...

practice one skill at a time, with a lot of repetition.  make sure you are doing it correctly first.  also play a lot of street basketball to get used to the game.

Your local rec center.  There will be places to shoot around alone, or play with different types of competition.  Also try renting a couple of basketball tip dvds from your local blockbuster if you need induvidual skill improvement.

Practice, but make sure you are working on the areas of your game that need the most improvement.  Work on your off foot, juggling with both feet, and if you can, find someone to work with you on different skills such as shooting, passing, trapping, and heading to name a few.  The more touches you get on the ball the better off you will be.  There are aspects of the game that can only be improved by playing, but you can work on your skills alone.

Try AND 1's website. I haven't searched it, or never been on their site, but they do lots of tricks and moves. Or do a search for SportsKool which is a training type show/tape that NBA legends host and show you tips and tricks. Sorry that I don't have the URL's.

u should have fun and make friends. Some pointers might be learn how to shoot right and just practice. And if u dont start its okay u might as well have fun. It depends on ur height. If ur tall center or powerforward. if ur medium height small forward or shooting guard. if u are short u play point guard. It all depends on how tall u are u can email me at buckswillmakeplayoffs@yahoo.com if u need more pointers

Assuming your talking about Basketball...\nLay on your back and "shoot" the basketball up in the air with little or no bend of your arm. Try to make the shot as straight as possible and have the ball land back in your hands without moving. I did this when I was playing B-ball back in High School. Did the trick with strengthening my wrist as well as control.

Practice different things each day. One day work on conditioning running and things. Then work on dribbling with your left and right if you are strong with both hands and can drive and penetrate with strong and weak hand you can make a great point guard. Then two of the 7 days do shooting work on right and left hand layups close midrange and outside jumpers and freethrows. Then another day work on your defense and rebounding. Do Defensive Slides and do this rebounding drill shoot the ball and make sure the ball never hits the ground but dont shoot from really close. If it goes in you dont have to get it. But if it hits ground do a lap around your house. Then just play with your friends play at your school or after school. Join a travel or AAU team. Join a summer camp. Find your local park and just play with other people and use the stuff you practiced in those games. \n\nIts not just ok to practice. My teacher told me you can practice a million times and still do fail. You have to practice right to suceed. \n\n And your state's NBA team always has a Basketball Camp. I went to Sixers Camp because I live near philly.

well you have do develop speed and quickness. try running sprints often. also ball control is very much needed. this can be achieved by dribbling 2 balls at once this will give you great ball control. then of course your shooting. just shoot 100 shots per area on the court. If you use to be a 4-5 and can achieve this you will be a good 1-2
