Default Help with transmission

ok i got a 2000 camaro ss (71000 stock clutch) still when i drive around normal it shifts fine and smooth but when i get on it sometimes the clutch pedel sometime goes to the floor a little and soemtiems it doesnt. Also when i get on it i noticed a couple times i can shift 1st and 2nd just fine but when i try to put it in 3rd it doesnt let me or any other gear i have to wiggle the stick back and forth and and then it will let me in any gear. Is it my slave cylinder or shift forks or what.
