Abstract
A dynamic model is used to analyze the release conditions of direct and bank basketball shots: horizontal and vertical distance from the hoop center, release velocity, release angle, lateral deviation angle, and backspin angular velocity. The dynamic model includes radial ball compliance and damping and contains six sub-models: ball-rim, ball-bridge, ball-board, ball-bridge-board, ball-rim-board, and pure gravitational flight. Each ball-contact sub-model has slipping and non-slipping interactions. Margins in release angle and velocity are defined and used to characterize robustness of capture to perturbations in these variables. Based on these margins we suggest strategies for bank and direct shots depending on the court position.
