Art of Shooting - Ray Allen and Gilbert Arenas

[@leowu988]

I used to watch this clip so many times during junior high. Dang so many years passes

[@anyone.147]

!!!!!!!

[@crypteduber6974]

At 1:20 Seeing him alone on the court with that music playing almost brought tears to my eyes. It's just beautiful the dedication and work these guys put in day in and day out to be great.

[@twominutewarning]

Ray Ray will chase everybody out of the building with his jump shots... Probably the purest jump shooter in the NBA

[@Lalambz]

you dont need fancy handles if you can shoot from anywhere

[@igethighhighhigh]

EXACTLY

[@hustlegrind2shine]

Curry said otherwise

[@jackjax7921]

Unless youre Kyrie and Iverson but I get your point.

[@NSmith-hh1ys]

​@jackjax7921 they can't shoot from everywhere..

[@pablodavid1908]

​@@NSmith-hh1ysfact!!!

[@Pantherzfann89]

When you shoot a lot, sometimes you get that feeling when you shoot that you just know it's going in, you can tell by how it looks on its way to the net.

[@AgentSpiral]

Dude needs to come back. That shit is ridiculous. The purest shot I've ever seen. Gilbert don't do that to yourself man. Come back to the NBA..

[@JJWilliams910]

Gilbert in them big ass shorts

[@FreeFlow__]

Zero was so smooth. No energy wasted. Bring back the sonics btw.

[@ruhtraeel]

Ray Allen's shot is quite strange, which makes it so good. He pulls away his left hand, instead of just leaving in there, to make sure it doesn't affect the spin.

[@peterlegend]

Watched this back in 2007, time flies

[@daybluebandz3439]

Peter Lee Yeah i remember watching this whole thing everyday i came home from basketball practice

[@c22to]

Gilbert Arenas is BACK! hes going to dominate just like he did in 05-06 and 04-05. The wizards might even be a very dangerous playoff team because everyones healthy and they got a really good coach in Flip Saunders.

[@zakariaabshir6979]

I'm a streaky shooter so if I make my first shot I make the a lot more but if I miss it takes,along time to get hot

[@boyeks]

i miss AGENT ZERO already . comback bro.

[@2009mbk]

My favorite vid on Gilbert

[@GT23n3]

Hey, don't worry about your height, it's all about creating space. You could jab step forcing the defender back but remember, never hesitate. You could fake, wait for the defender to bite on it, then dribble once to the side that the defender isn't on, and shoot from there. At that point, take your time, just don't take that long, the D can come back on you. Always remember, its about space.

[@MyNikeSocksON]

You see Ahmad Rashad...shits bout to get real

[@ethancooper8465]

KING JAY 😂😂 very true

[@truthtruth9056]

I miss this time.

[@Cfullerrrr]

Agent zero was him

[@Afrochinese]

Ray allen is so humble..

[@MRsoPrettyPretty]

Yea. The indoor gym vibe is just more satisfying then outdoor courts

[@zxcvbnmmasdfghjkl]

his form is so perfect at 2:33

[@TheRakidori]

Gilbert Arenas made a mistake, it's time to forgive and forget.

[@apolmedrano3914]

what happend?

[@apolmedrano3914]

what happend?

[@DeathrowDC]

+solidsnack1146 Gilbert and one of his teammates were arguing on a plane ride home from a Suns game. They were playing cards and money was involved. Gilbert brought 4-5 guns to the lockeroom and told the dude to "Pick one." Lmao

[@minge9]

@@DeathrowDC Fake news. Go watch his podcast lol that never happened

[@blackprince3577]

@@DeathrowDC lmao what did he mean by that? 😂😂 Was he selling of was he telling him which one he wanted to get blasted by 😂😂

[@LFonzus]

Ray Allen... The Best 3 pointer PERIOD

[@JohnBelushi8]

How cool would it be to have an NBA star randomly invite you into the practice facility and ask you to rebound for him for free. AWESOME

[@MinorCheese777]

If you shoot enough, that happens. When I used to go to the gym everyday back in middle school I knew if it was going in or not. You can feel it, the way it rolls of the fingers. I wish I still had a gym to shoot at...

[@zanegale3673]

Man you know if you heard that Stuart Scott that that was going to be one hell of a segment

[@donjohnson2428]

2:39 Arenas put his hands up before the shot even went in. RNS!

[@Donghammer11]

I stay like an hour after games and practice to shoot around and my jumpshots have been amazing.

[@VangoghC5C]

Yo those shorts are humongous even at that time. But I have to tell you it made you dribble alot lower and tighter. Loved Agent 0. Hibachi. No Chill Gil.

[@julah11]

anybody notice that the game winning shot he took around the 2:07 mark, he took the shot off balanced, pretty good

[@litdan]

Agent zero, the sickest nickname ever

[@awesomeair]

Ray Allen flips his left thumb. It's rare that a person can shoot so well with such a flaw.

[@thetroywholived]

agent zero is so underrated. i think he should be put in the hall of fame when he is done. i jus dont like him when he plays my team :).. ray allen has the quickest shot in the nba, when he makes one, dont let him get the ball again kus he is gonna make it for the rest of the night!

[@JOSHUAGLOTV]

The long shorts so classic

[@drowsy123]

@einbischen yep it was in seattle, but they moved it into the oklahoma city thunder franchise.

[@LB23cav]

they probably r the two best three point shooters in the nba

[@11jubilee]

lets go seattle sonics if you live in Seattle go and vote for the team

[@JaydenLand]

I miss when both of them were undisputed stars of their team. Ecspecially Gilbert Arenas he could've been the best point guard in the league or world.

[@andraybair1213]

For all you guys who are struggling with your shooting, the number one thing to do is keep shooting the ball and don't get frustrated.

[@callmetagno]

@tecvawn good man, as you get better so will other kids just keep at it, with basketball you need talent and you need to work hard so if you have the talent you know what you need to do next. don't let anything stop you

[@CowboysAreDaTruth]

Man he used to be the man down here for the Wizards... Gave Kobe 60 smh. Good times good times...

[@youtubecommentrater3379]

Gil’s Area gang!!! 💰🔥🔥

[@datguyreggie1]

2:37 thats some Larry Bird stuff cant say no more thats just SWAGGGGG

[@Rafids]

i have 2 ways of shooting. 1 way i release the ball from a low distance the other i release from above my head. the 1 when i release lower i score more but im to afraid i might get my shot blocked. the other one when i shoot above my head will go in anywere inside the 3 pt line but when i go to the 3pt line they dont go in as much. which way should i shoot

[@rsfreak41]

Arenas was the Steph curry of the NBA

[@S3TO1234]

Real talk on that man!!

[@bhopirl4552]

way more clutch than steph

[@BarstoolBlues33]

lol no

[@GamingCentralTV1]

Deadass

[@GamingCentralTV1]

high horse didnt have the ability to shoot off the dribble?

[@xxxXander1122xxx]

ray fuckin allen best shooter ever damn i wish i had that stroke

[@backenddj1739]

Long ahh shorts boyyy time has change😂😂😂

[@OneRealAssNiggaa]

2:36 was crazy, he lifted his hands before the shot even went down

[@shadowwarrior2030]

Gilbert has THE best shooting form ever.

[@SmokeyHotBeans]

2:40 he knew it was going in, he celebrated before making the shot.

[@gimpygee7676]

only if ray allen stayed until the oklahoma city switch, think abou ray allen with kevin durant, man o man

[@signature_n]

it really does look like ray is shooting the ball with his left thumb too if you look closely

[@atSlickBoiChris]

These youngsters don’t know before Steph, Dame, and Trey. Agent 0 was pulling from DEEP. He started this, Steph just took off with it.

[@akaashmoney8710]

If you're passionate about art it's not work. It's pleasure.

[@BrandonTisdale]

Akaash Money watching this is art alone

[@bobbyhtb030591]

there's this park i go to and go shoot nearly everyday.

[@demonfox421]

yee totally agree w/ u bro, allen even says that lol. but im jus wonderin y hes strugging in the playoffs, his form looks the same

[@STYLERFELLA]

thanks mate

[@demonfox421]

u think like ray allen, ray allen said wen u shoot dont be afraid if ur guna miss or get blocked, jus shoot it. u have the advantage offensively anyways b/c u know what u will do. practicing quick release or explosiveness will lessen fear of getting blocked

[@chrisshowers1]

@mike813tampa i'm with u if i had a gym 2 go 2 at anytime when i was growin up i could have been one of the best......

[@Pockets237]

haha the shot at 2:36 he knows is goin in, he turns his back after he shoots too lol

[@GT23n3]

Hey way to go, and as for your height, you'll grow into it don't worry about it.

[@Cfullerrrr]

“Gilbert arenas with 54” is crazy. Hibachi was HIM

[@FightLikeTelevision]

Yeah @andray bair i have been working my shoot for a long time (got mad alot cuase i would try to perfect.it so much) and o realized that i just kept trying eventually now i shot amazinly..i shot like steph curry mixed with lebron james shot

[@devvv4616]

Maaaan, gils offense was so minute and minor compared to players like spreewell and crittenton. Whats bad is that he ends up being forgotten by later generations.

[@ENGAGELEARNING]

anybody know where you can find all these nba videos in one place? the inspirational ones...

[@wesleydass1746]

All shooting jokes aside Gilbert arena was a GOD before injuries, bad decisions, etc.

[@poloni99a69]

ray allen and rasard lewis look like brothers

[@sp123]

at 5:24 Ray Allen uses the Michael Jordan to Bryon Russel left arm shove on Steve Nash

[@jonvegard31]

@kluwkidd almost every player has a different release, it's about finding what you're comfortable with, and just work on it. you need to shoot alot. i could every shot before i became lazy

[@crayyawn]

Can anyone answer this for me, are you supposed to hold the ball with the seams? And grip it that way almost every time you shoot? It seems like it takes too much time to change the grip in your hand. I see a lot of guys not holding it that way, is it something like you just prefer to shoot it that way but will hold it any other way?

[@markhowell1495]

Used to be such a great vid, now just a great pun

[@0m3g4s]

This dude had a clean stroke

[@Quan1992]

Gil said that's Tim Connelly he asks.

[@gamrz2621]

Thx Man

[@blendtecrocks08]

I've watched this video for years now and it seems like it keeps decreasing in quality every time. I used to be able to see Gilberts finger placement when he was practicing his shot in the gym, now its more pixelated than ever.

[@Don-hc4gk]

Probably to avoid being taken down

[@maddmike23]

miss the old agent 0

[@rikard_sl]

Good words by the g.o.a.t shooter

[@montgolojones3696]

Gilbert Arenas. When his head was right and focused, he was dangerous. I mean he had Kobe hating him when dropped 60 on them lol. I miss Agent 0!

[@cavs2legend]

i feel bad for the players that were on the sonics when they moved.most of them got traded like ray.

[@GrubbyJ5]

Gilbert took the art of shooting to a whole new level..

[@rikcbc]

He didn't shove Nash. His left arm is never extended out!

[@iveywebb44]

gilbert has taste- ferrari 612 scaglitti- beuatiful and refined.

[@STYLERFELLA]

what does Ray say at 3:35? "if you could only see the amount of people ... every year" ?

[@Marbstar]

some rumors says Gilbert will play overseas because no nba team want him right now

[@34Burkes]

Gilbert with the genie pants on

[@BopWalk]

ik right, if i had one i might even play college ball

[@hallokity123]

3:20 I thought it stands for 'No Bigs Allowed'

[@thentust]

1:00 That is a long shorts!!

[@ericfhernandez]

No mentions in the comments about Tim Connelly (current Nuggets Pres of Bball Ops) rebounding for Gil…smh lol

[@gamemaster47]

doesnt matter, it does not get blocked and reaches the bootom of the net each and every time.

[@something2307]

He went to Orlando :)

[@rshinnie]

"Art of Shooting" - by Gilbert Arenas. HILARIOUS

[@TheWheresmichael]

golds gym or something like that but you have to go at night or early in the morning.

[@curleyhurleyfosho]

I've seen this before, what's the name of the DVD?

[@DeathPenguin1000]

Damn! Another reason to love you, Andre. lol

[@harlemkiid149]

Growing up they nicknamed me Gilly because of Gilbert Arenas

[@fzxtT]

Guess Gilbert... really is a shooter.. huh? Couldn't help myself lol

[@joeylong9428]

U serious? Was he a shooter? U gotta be joking. Coming from your mouth.

[@bhopirl4552]

he's referring to the gun incident lol +Joey Long

[@WhoLenGen]

damn never laughed so hard. thanks iggy. :p

[@Relayzy1]

Work hard play harder!

If only i knew the instrumental that starts at 1:12min mark

It took me forever to find but I eventually did. Hope this helps, the song is called "life" from the APM music library www.rhapsody.com/artist/coming-attractions/album/at-the-movies-a-collection-of-americas-best-known-film-trai-apm-music

Oh my goodness bro thank you sooooooo much woooooow ahaha How can i buy/download
