since your using a 5 step approach you seem to get the ball moving on your 3rd step, where it should actually be around your 2nd which will help you have better timing. Also you have good knee bend until you release the ball, then you prop yourself up too quickly and doing that can cause you to become less accurate.
I'm just a student of this game, but that is my $.02.

I'm aware of my timing issue and working on it.  I think what I do is start moving the ball as I end my second step instead of when I start it.  I can't seem to get used to starting it that early as it seems to make my timing feel even more off than it is.  I also notice my second and third step are keeping my foot speed from being smooth.

So I'll be working on these things, as well as not bending so much at the waist and more with the knee at release.  There's some other things too but I'd still like more critique.
