"Okay, what we want to talk about, we talked about the bank shot, but I didn't give you an idea of exactly where to aim on the bank shot, when you're shooting the bank shot. The best thing to do, whether you're on the left side of the basket or whether you're on the right side of the basket, it's hard for me to see because the sun is right there. You want to aim for where the two lines meet together and form that ninety degree angle and if you can put the ball close to there, or as close to there as possible, you should be able to make a decent shot. Hopefully you can see that when I hit right about that spot, the ball is going to go in. And that almost stands true from anywhere you are on the court. Whether you're out further from the basket or closer to the basket. Give it a try. As close as you can get that to where those two lines intersect at a ninety degree angle, that's going to be your best chance for hitting the bank shot."
