It's time. With the Golden State Warriors staring at a lost-in-space three-point shooter in Draymond Green, there is professional help right across the San Mateo Bridge in Los Altos Hills. Doc Scheppler, the highly successful hoops mentor at Pinewood, is available for consultation, even a house call if you will. Green can barely hit the broadside of a condominium with his flat-trajectory scud missile attempts from distance. He requires serious intervention. Scheppler, a shooting coach with outstanding credentials, is the right guy in the right place at the right time. He's just a phone call away over there in Silicon Valley. Hello, the Doctor is in.

Doc - helped Carl Hansen at one time. Mr. Green would be an easy fix for the good Doctor. Perhaps a house call or two is on the horizon .

Funny you mention this, because Doc has in fact already commented on Draymond shot in a recent S.I. article, and it's not that Dray's shot is too flat. He's just to slow with his shot because he is being too careful when shooting...

"“Everyone says Draymond’s shot is flat but his arc is fine,” says Scheppler. Instead, Scheppler says Green is merely shooting it short—“don’t confuse short with flat”—because his shot is slow. “He doesn’t have a picture perfect release, but all he needs to do is jump quicker,” says Scheppler. “When he steps in to shoot the ball, he reloads, drops, and shoots, because he’s being careful. That momentary drop is a power leak. And that ball will miss short. All he needs to do is spring when he hits the ground.”
 
Doc is wrong....what he mentions will not "fix" DG's jumper ....
the problem is DG's head is tilted 10% to low...therefore his shot...
comes out flat....he needs to practice a more upward tilt of his head...
....how could he see that arc and say DG's shot is not flat...
