Basketball Shooting
By Gary Boren, Basketball Shooting Coach for The Dallas
Mavericks, Mark Mason and Denny Price
Forward by Don Nelson
Head Coach and General Manager
Dallas Mavericks
The game of basketball is one of the most popular games in the world,
and the skill of shooting is the most important within the game. The
majority of all points scored come from free throws and outside two and
three point shooting combined, so the purpose of this basketball shooting
book is to help players improve their shooting skills in these areas, or
coaches who want to help others shoot better.
In basketball, you have to score to win and you have to shoot to score. In
the basketball shooting book we first address free throw shooting, because
it is the foundation of all shooting. On an outside shot, the upper body
should be doing the same thing as on a free throw. Then we address outside
shooting. All of the above is presented in a straightforward fashion so
anyone can use the information to become a better shooter. Then we provide
instruction on how to become a better scorer.

About Gary Boren
Gary Boren began coaching at the NBA level as the free throw shooting
coach of the Golden State Warriors for legendary coach Don Nelson in the
1993 season. He served in the same capacity when Nelson became Head Coach
of the New York Knicks in 1995, and again when Nelson moved on to become
Head Coach of the Dallas Mavericks in 1996. During this time, he served as
free throw shooting coach for US “Dream Team II”, Gold Medal winner at the
1994 World Championship of Basketball, and shooting coach for the US
Women’s Paralympic team, Bronze Medal winner at the 1996 Paralympic Games.
The Mavericks averaged over 80% at the line the past three years, and
established a new all-time NBA playoff team free throw record of 84.8% in
2001. That was followed with a near record 83.7% in the 2002 playoffs.
Boren now serves as full basketball shooting coach for the Mavericks. In
addition to his work in the NBA, Coach Boren shares his proven teaching
system with Division I College Head Coaches and their coaching staffs.
