At this moment im probably out there shooting on average up to 2 hours per day (lucky to have a beautiful court right outside here) with peaks of up to 5-6 hours, before that, before i gave organized basketball up i was horribly serious unlike maybe anybody you personally knew, not only was i playing organized basketball since the age of 10 (around 15 years) but for many years i used to spend 2-3 hours before and after team practice (which was ~2 hours) mostly shooting inside or outside... up to 8 hours per day, i was out there, i have honestly never met anybody personally who was obsessed as me.... snow, rain at times, skipped school many times just to spend time shooting, went home & watched basketball & was then dreaming basketball... i didnt give a damn... it was life, it was love, obsession.... I played up to a professional level here around Croatia/Bosnia/Serbia/Montenegro...
Im not exactly like that today, but i still find basketball = my sanctuary.... and i can still go crazy, i mean if you find me a nice court & give me a spalding, i have nothing else more important to do i can be there the entire day just shooting (well ofcourse, i might take a break to drink/eat).... doesnt take much energy and for me there is nothing else more fun than hearing the echoes of the ball & net/swish as an outcome of my sexy form/stroke.... :)
So not exactly as Chazzy put it, but i honestly believe
i could outshoot many NBA players, like for example in a 3pt or FT contest...
