Jumpshots & builds

The principle

Fast, straight releases give the widest green windows. Every auto-green page holds Square for a fixed number of milliseconds, so the wider the window around that moment, the more shots land green. A slow or hitchy animation narrows the window and no value can widen it back.

yew's recommendations

Pick one of the three bases, pair it with matching releases, run the speed slider all the way up. If you blend two releases, split them evenly.

What to avoid

• Slow bases — Kobe, MJ.
• Exaggerated wind-ups.
• Hitchy animations with a pause before the release.

A fixed hold value needs a release that lands in the same place every time. These animations are the ones yew says to stay away from.

Attributes

Prioritise shooting attributes — a 90+ three — over dunk packages. The script does not add rating; it only times the release. Build for the shot you want the script to take.

If you brick with sensible values

The jumpshot is almost always the problem. Before you move a single millisecond:

1. Confirm the required settings: Shot Timing Shots and Layups, Shot Meter Off.
2. Switch to one of the three recommended bases at max speed.
3. Re-tune in online MyCourt with the early → raise, late → lower rule.

Changing the jumpshot changes the release point, so expect to re-tune Auto-Green and the shot-pack values afterwards. That is normal and takes a few minutes.
