What about doing calf work and glute-hams? Does your back do anything when doing GHRs?

You can just SEE how strong his hamstrings are by the way he moves and pulls himself on the track

That's why it annoys me as hell when I see Usain Bolt always trying to dunk off two feet... I would LOVE to see him jump off one leg to the rim... imagine Bolt, at his incredible length and strength and power, jumping off one. He should be dunking like crazy from beyond the free throw line, assuming he could stabilize the jump at very high speeds (which he should).
I mean think about it - even with Bolt running at what, 80%? he would still be faster than any dunker ever... imagine him jumping at that speed off one

Well... maybe it tells you something... maybe you're in anterior tilt? Maybe you're not using your glutes as you should? Or is it just a regular injury?

By the way - up until this year, I've shot from the shoulder/chest area, and I still kinda do it out from the three point range. I used to shoot like that even from inside, because I didn't have enough upperbody pushing strength to shoot from above my head with any kind of precision whatsoever, neither the flexibility to do so. It was like a shot put.

Yeah I'm MUCH better at pulling. It was always easy for me. Pulling of any kind. Deadlift, pullups, chinups, rows (though I never do barbell rows) of all kinds. I can do narrow grip cable rows with 120 kg (the heaviest the machine can go) for like 8 reps. I have seen only one guy in my gym doing that, and he's ~40 kg heavier than me (~90 lbs heavier).
Same with jumping - "pulling" myself in the air as in a one-leg jump where I don't bend my knees to jump is easy, whereas "pushing" myself up is very difficult.
