5 simple steps:
1)Get balanced
2)Look at the rim when you shoot
3)Bend your knees
4)Keep your arms and body center to the hoop
5)Always follow through

These were the steps that I was taught when I was younger and it has helped me ever since.

Look Up!.................(no, not for superman!)

Many handlers often make the mistake to dribble while looking down. Reason is: players are pretty conscious of losing the ball and by looking at where there dribbling they think that will help them keep control of the ball. Look up when your dribbling so that you have better court vision while dribbling. This allows you to make a quick pass, or even just rise up for a shot. Looking down while dribbling wont allow you to do that because of the fact that you have to look up before you pass or shoot. Dribbling with your head down is basketball's "Cardinal Sin".
