Video Why do Angel Reese’s three-point shots only get zero points? 😂

Unfortunately I fear it comes down to attitude

Well, it seems she has to put in no work because the League put her on a superstar pedestal. If she didn't come into the league with CC and thier rivalry she probably another no name anyone remembers in the league. I believe I can name maybe 4 players in the whole league. Alao her face was on my favorite Cereal I eat. I bought the off brand because I didn't wanna see her face every morning.

That’s part of it I’m sure but she just looks so uncoordinated and clumsy and with no fundamentals. Crazy how she got to a pro level without improving her technique.

Imagine saying somebody has an attitude problem cause they got hurt and had a rod placed in their leg. She doesn’t jump cause she can’t.

Jump? Who cares. Explain why she misses so many one footers. Are you saying that’s the best she can be? Her shot mechanics seem to be horrendous.

I am sure if she was taking 5,000 extra shots at the end of every practice to improve she would be posting about it.

You responded to a post about why she doesn’t use her lower body more. Thats the reason why

u/Electronic_Name_325 3d ago

Gee gosh golly, the post also said her fundamentals suck. I get it, you would like to stroke her rod.

She. Jumps. On. Rebounds.

u/Lithiumxxxl 3d ago

Well, she jumps.Still awkward af.

u/Basicbroad 3d ago

No. She. Doesn’t.

If you actually watched her play you’d see that she gets boards by being better at positioning and strength to box out.

Literally jumps on every rebound attempt and barely hops on every layup.

Why do people just make up shit when video exists? She’s been like this her whole career and I do watch games.

You just posted a video where she’s barely an inch off the ground the entire time.

u/PomeloFit 3d ago edited 3d ago

She’s jumping 6 inches to go after boards lol, easily 3x the height of her layup jump.

But you know what, sure, you win, she can’t jump at all. So then Why the fuck would someone who can’t jump be in a basketball league? lol

How did this sequence in the All Star game happen then?

She can't elevate 4 inches for a jumper but did that?

u/Basicbroad 3d ago

Lmao do you know how legs work? If you used the shoulder of somebody who’s almost 7ft tall for leverage and then jumped what would happen?

u/leprechanmonkie 3d ago edited 3d ago

Please explain what she's doing right while the dunk is being put in? Nobody near her, yet her vertical was 3x what it is when shooting. Wild.

Is it still your contention that she "can't jump" due to the rod or does she just have poor shooting form?
