The Real Reason Your Dip Timing Is Killing Your Jump Shot

The dip isn't the problem, bad timing is.⁣

I've said this for years and it still surprises people: bringing the ball down early in your one-two kills your energy transfer before you even get to the jump. You sit at the bottom of that dip waiting for the plant, and all that momentum just leaks out.⁣
