    I had some brahs at the rec ask me why I never get blocked and how I got my shot off so quickly. It's the quick-release that is so dangerous. I figured I'd also help you brahs out by putting up this video. Especially useful for those who have trouble putting up shots against taller defenders!

    I wasn't able to get any footage of it in-game, so I thought I would just upload a video of me shooting my quick-release shot from the free throw line. It's pretty much impossible to block! I know my mechanics aren't perfect, but that's because it's a quick-release shot.

    Lol... Nice.

    Amazing quick release. Don't think you'll ever get blocked shooting a free throw.

    Not sheriff you brahs are srs or incapable of reading. It's my quick-release shot, which I'm merely shooting from the free throw line. I could have shot it anywhere, but I felt that the free throw line was a solid spot

    It might be quick but you're shooting it from around your neck.
    Do you know what a jump shot is?
    If you're playing with anybody that's good defensively they'd block your shot all game long.
