As a long time grizzlies fan, Anderson is one of my favorite role players we’ve ever had. When everyone’s moving 200 MPH sometimes going 75 has its advantages
You’re absolutely right, such an underrated comment! What we’ve seen the last 5 or so years in the NBA is the Euro guys winning MVPs, and a lot of NBA players credit their ability to change speed/tempo to throw off defenders. You just gave me a whole new perspective on team building, where paper stats don’t compare to the eye test.
He's Fat Lever. When everyone else was running, he'd walk. He'd end up wide open and his jumper took about 8 years to get off. It almost always went in though. He reminds me of Fat a lot.
@@TrillVilla5 That's in Arizona, right? He was born in Arkansas, so we claim him. He's supposed to get a plaque or already has at the Star walk in Hot Springs. He's the 2nd greatest PG in Nuggets history. Abdul Rauf is my number 1. I have all of his basketball cards. I love Fat. He was a real baller. Jordan hated him. LoL.
if he's being slow intentionally, i'd say it is a pretty smart playstyle because you get to conserve more energy on the floor to last longer (pause) and you tend to contribute more to the team
no, it’s because you said some shit that only someone out of touch with reality would say. The vid hit the algorithm and that’s why i’m here just like him. Take this man’s advice and stop looking for arguments to have😂 the fact that you’re apt to respond to it instantly is far more telling of a keyboard warrior loser like you’re labeling this dude. If you thought about yourself the way you think about others you would cry yourself to sleep and fix yourself, at least i hope you would❤
Gonna miss him this season. Solid defender who can contribute offensively. Will make the right pass, chase a rebound, and then somehow make his defender look silly in slow motion. Seriously, it’s as if he moves so slowly that he glitches around defenders.
He actually gets decent fantasy points if anyone place fantasy basketball. Picked em up when i started to see him get around 20 fantasy points a game and he doesn’t even get enough playing time. He is just so efficient at times that he rarely misses or has turnovers.
I love this guy's game. He is one of my favorite players. He is proof that skills in basketball is the most important thing to have. Everything else is a far second.
I like lukas game... He got much faster, much more athletic guys hounding him, some of the greatest defenders in the league, even double teams, and luka looks unfazed, as if he in warm up... Just moves at his own pace like nobody in front of him... I like the speed and showmanship as much as anyone else, but you gotta respect what lukas doing.
He’s so skilled that he chooses exactly when to attack and he knows how to NOT waste energy. Kyle Anderson is literally the definition of brain over brawn and the fact that teams are paying big bucks to have him on their roster in the highest league of the land…tells you all you need to know.
We have that kind of pro player here in the Philippines he explains why he shoots so slow and he said when you shoot slow the defence will become slow also lol
I played blackjack with this dude once in Las Vegas and he was probably one of the most down to earth men I have ever met in my life. We played for hours and even “bought” us drinks as a joke.
The way Muggsy Bogues weaponized shortness, Kyle Anderson weaponizes slowness. It is something NBA players are not accustomed to and therefore struggle with.
Met this kid for the first time in 6th grade… his dad was my math teacher, he brought him in when he was about 7 years old and told us he would be in the NBA one day and he told us no lies… loved him on the Spurs…
I saw him play as a freshman in high school at a tournament in Myrtle Beach. He was a 6'6" freshman running the point and he even played in slow motion back then lol. Have always loved his game
I literally watched him as an child!! ALOT of faster athletic kids & now adults didn't/dont have the knowledge of the game he had & still have #JERSEY💯
He’s got a great basketball mind, can play the point, great handles, and a good shot. Spurs had him a couple of years, and he was always good! Slowmo is that dude!
It's not that he's slow, he just has really good body control and the change of speed throws off opponents. Any good basketball coach will tell you that top speed isn't as important then being able to change speeds to throw off defenders.
Thanks for this great video. I've never heard of Slo-Mo Anderson, and I appreciate your highlighting the guy. Also, I really appreciate your tone of voice, which has a friendly, congenial quality to it. That's why I think I can safely ask you the following question.... (I’ve asked this same question of at least twenty other RU-vid presenters, so I hope you don’t take it personally, or in a negative way. I’m on a quest to understand a particular speech pattern and, so far, I don’t have any clear answers.) My question: Why do you often say *“aye”* for “a” ... and *“thee”* for “the”? To my knowledge, there are very limited circumstances in which those pronunciations would be correct (i.e., most often related to the first letter of the word that follows the article)... and most of the time they're not. To my ears, these sounds very unnatural -- I have doubts you or anyone would use these pronunciations in everyday conversation, for example. I remember my father doing this, when I was a kid, while he was pretending to be a newscaster or a high-ranking military officer. My only guess, at this point, is that there is a belief that these pronunciations make the speaker sound more formal or educated. I am interested in hearing from those who use this speech pattern, however, and would appreciate any light you could shed on this.
I'm confused, it's just an accent, that's just how he pronounces those sounds. There are lots of types of different accent in the US, it's like asking why a Mexican pronounces ''cerebro'' as if it were ''serebro''.
Let me unconfuse you,@@holliswilliams8426, and broaden your perspective on the world a bit. If I ask a Mexican why he pronounces _winner_ as if it were "weiner," you know what he *doesn't* say (unless he's a jackass): "It's just an accent." He says, _My native tongue is Mexican-Spanish._ Why does he say that? Because he understood my question.
It's weird that Slo Mo really is one of our key factors to why we're a strong team yet I can't understand how nobody is able to stop him on drives lmao. Like it's readable yet he always schools them 😂
That's to let you know that know matter what level you are in life in any field you can still make a difference with the small talent you have. You Don't to be like others just do you and God will take care of the rest
He’s got a methodical shot that works for him it’s pretty crazy tho when you compare it side by side to the quickest snappy flick shooters like Ray Allen & Steph.
It's actually hard to guard someoneslow specially because you expect them to move quick so you end up going too fast compared to him so youll feel a little distorted
Haha I swear man, he’s a genius with his play style. By quickly getting to his spot, then getting in a slower movement, not only is he more efficient, and accurate, but then his slower shot motion allows more duration for a defender to fall into the motion and grant him a shooting foul
You don’t play basketball if you think there’s something wrong with his jumpshot. Coaches tell you since 4th grade. As long as you flick your wrist and keep that elbow tucked, your form is perfect
He doesn't look like he's glitching with his shooting form. Nor is his release awkward. It's just a slow release. Love his game, his game purely depends on IQ and his game actually counters the fast paced game of nba which throws off the rhythm of the opponent in game.
This dude is like thee exact definition of that time we all experienced when your watching something happen super slowly knowing if your were faster you could stop it but for some reason you just can’t even though you could
And then there are super ugly, against all types of common sense and physics type of jumpshots and yet they still are dangerous out there. Like idk, some retired dude with a T-Rex jumpshot but still manages to shoot decently throughout his career on top of being a lockdown defender?
I like to think this messes with the pacing of the opposing defenders, like a hesitation that throws them a little off balance, just enough to give him time to get the shot off
he's that dude with the white tshirt, the long hair, and the round glasses in park that has nothing upgraded except shooting but he makes everything. 65 ovr, maxed out shooting badges, nothing else
