[@mickeysantos8846]

You should watch Jimmy Butler against Kevin Heart. 😁

[@CvilleCeltics40]

It’s really nothing special. Any pro, or even college athlete can shoot comfortably with their left hand. With that amount of training you should be comfortable enough with both hands that you can just switch the mechanics to your other side. I myself can probably make 4/10 from three left handed. I use to play Yogi Ferrell(Indiana alum and current NBA player) sometimes in high school and he would still be one of the best shooters on the court with his left. I remember one day His right wrist was bruised, he had fell on it playing at the same court the day before, he came back the next day and resorted to shooting left handed and he was still lethal and would hit at least 1 three pointer per pickup game.

[@dhughzy]

No its hard to shoot from your left hand especially from distance and he's form just shows you how great he is on it.

[@CvilleCeltics40]

King Hughzy yea like I said, if you aren’t a well practiced basketball player it’s going to be hard but if you are it’s very easy. There’s high schoolers who can shoot well with their left. There’s D3 guys I’ve seen with my own eyes hit like 10-15 straight with their left. If you’ve been playing basketball long enough there’s no reason your offhand shouldn’t be strong, maybe not as strong as your dominant hand but still strong. Basically I’m saying you don’t need to be MJ to do this there’s so many ball players who can.

@@evergreatest8909 lmfao, oh is it? Nice try bud. Go look at their averages by year. I’m talking about in dirk’s early years, when Nash was still in Dallas, Finley was their go-to guy at the time. Your opinion doesn’t change history bud, lmfao.

Finley had a very good nba career. Very glad to see this vintage footage. 😊

Good stuff. Ilove to see HS realize their dream after they meet somebody in the league and eventually end up playing against them

MJ even signed him to Team Jordan later. Cool to see.

Damn I saw this the day it came out!! It was on CBS Channel 2 News Chicago. Fell like it was on a thursday or Friday. Johnny Morris was the sports reporter. Good sh!t. Thanks for posting.
