The first is the characteristics of Kobe's lower limbs. Feature 1: Kobe's take-off is to accumulate strength through the full bending of knees and hips, mainly using muscle strength to pursue the absolute height of take-off. Feature 2: Kobe uses a wide range of sideways shooting, the distance between his feet is equal to or slightly wider than his shoulders, and his feet turn left to form a sideways shooting. On the shooting side, the right foot and right shoulder are slightly in front, and Kobe's sideways shooting can make the upper limb muscles more relaxed and the shoulder joint activity higher. Kobe Bryant's shooting position is slightly inside eight feet, which is more conducive to the forefoot force, and the knees and toes are slightly buckled in the same direction. Thirdly, Kobe often has the habit of swinging his legs forward after jump shot, which can avoid the forward rush of his center of gravity when taking off, ensure the balance of his body and improve the arc of shooting. In his backward jump shot, he often swings forward with one leg.
Secondly, the characteristics of Kobe Bryant's upper limb shooting power. Feature 1: Holding the ball. Kobe stretches with the shooter's five fingers. The thumb of the assistant holding the ball is in contact with the finger touching the ball, and the palm is left blank and placed between the shooter's jaws. Feature 2: Pilling. Kobe is used to hitting the ball with his right shoulder from the middle of his body. At the hanging point, his elbow and wrist are in a straight line with the basket, forming a straight shot. Kobe shoots with his right shoulder. He stands sideways, puts his right shoulder in the center of vision, and keeps his head facing the basket to ensure that the pitching direction is consistent with the aiming direction.
Feature three, take the shot. Kobe uses a high elbow shot, that is, the height of the elbow is greater than the height of the shoulder when lifting the point, which improves the power point of the upper limb. At the same time, there will be an obvious pause at the ascension point. The high elbow shooting direction is from back to front, the shooting arc is slightly lower, and the performance is not stable at a long distance. Kobe's upper limbs exert more force on the jump shot, mainly through the wrist pressing that the forearm fingers actively throw at the top elbow to pick up the ball. Kobe's fingering is mainly based on the index finger and middle finger. When he holds the ball, he puts the basketball center line between the index finger and the middle finger. Function 4, shooting assistant. Kobe's shooting assistant has an obvious habit of following forward, which can help him fix the shooting line and make the shooting trajectory more stable. Fifth, Kobe's jumper. Shooting at the highest point of take-off and insufficient elbow force are all in pursuit of the ultimate shooting height, so it is difficult to shoot with the help of lower limbs. Learning the gap of Kobe's jump shot requires strong physical fitness and coordination ability as the foundation.
