NBA Players Who Drastically Changed Their Playstyles 

He talked about him in a previous video.

And his defense really really improved too

@@aznpikachu215 I don’t remember which one if you remember tag me

He's like a stiff Chris bosh with a better shot.

He talked about him in a previous video.

Bruh I still remember when he was a laker in 2017 and we played Orlando and he didn’t have a single rebound in that game I was baffled😭

@@dboii9741 That team had no direction.

His last year at Brooklyn was his peak shooting year

@@tridan9179 nah his first year in MIL was his peak shooting year

Whole team was working like a clockwork. It was just perfect basketball...

There was no such thing as starters or bench players on the 2014 team, they were all on fire

He was the ultimate role player. Kyle Anderson kind of had that sort of skillset he just wasn't quite as smooth as Bobo

I’m not sure if stats will support this but, Boris has played some of the best defense on Lebron I’ve ever seen

@@Jaysuave365 stats won't ever show how good he guarded Bron, but peeps that saw those finals games know

I think he was under-utilized by Billy Donovan by giving KD and Russ and PG the ball too much with their isolation, but his playmaking started to flourish when Cp came to OKC. I wish he comes back again somewhere in his career to OKC

@@gabrielsalarda2865 Yea that's true, he made a lot of outlet passes in okc but didn't have that much freedom when KD was still on the roster. I never thought Billy Donovan was a good offensive coach though since he always just had Russ and KD or Russ and PG take turns controlling the offence so I guess Adams was kind of limited by that but his defensive schemes were always good.

Agree we all love Adams at okc

Yup okc he definitely showed flashes

Playing with two of the greatest point guards ever really helps with your basketball iq. Stevn Adams has always been a favorite player of mine and he's one of the toughest guys in the league and one of the strongest ever. Hopefully he wins a chip with the Grizzlies.

His growth as a passer surprised me the most, he was forced into the position with Derozan leaving but has thrived as the main facilitator

@@Anthonyfpm20 murray has always been a great passer tho?

I 👍💯 percent

Y’all weird

@@LeStephanie69 okay..

@@LeStephanie69 coming from Mr. Dinosaur

@@whitehaven80 ha

spurs ability to develop young players and players in general is insane

Not a single chance the actual SAS core is just 1/2 pieces away from contention.

Sign Tim Duncan on a 10-day

they need to stop drafting guards unless they can trade them to a experienced frontcourts. their young guards with dj, keldon(he's more of a forward but whatever lol), vassell, lonnie and i can see some flashes with primo and he's still really young imo has a bright future

No star power.. play in team at best

Granted it was never used to this degree today but it's always been there, just never fully seen because of Westbrook's usage

Adams would be a menace on GSW

It was usually glimpses of that for him. They could never fully allow Adams to playmake with Russ in. With Ja being a predominant driver less than a passer, Adams can work his potential. The Grizzlies straight up got another Gasol.

@@tybones2222 Pretty much Pachulia, David West and Bogut all had that role of being passing bigs that utilizes screening and hand-outs, while also being a defensive anchor who isn't much of a scoring threat Steven Adams at his current stage is probably better than all three of those in that role

Before the deadline I hoped that Jazz would trade for him. He's a big wing that can defend and would let Donovan be their full time PG. Conley served as a training wheels for Donovan plus having 2 small guards really never worked

he’s just playing with Westbrook again

@@lucassepulveda3158 nah ja way different

@@lucassepulveda3158 efficiency this time around

i admit i thought jonas was the better of the 2 ( still do ) but adams fits better , & he’s always been a solid playmaker westbrook’s ball dominance hid that from the world . love how they’re utilizing him !

@@lucassepulveda3158 Similar athleticism but Ja is a better decision maker.

That’s what I’m saying lol

He should be at the top of this list

I agree, from playing to not playing.

Jahlil okafor and Mountain Dew are doing well and are still very interested in the future of our family but they aren’t necessarily going through this weekend lol but it’s definitely a good idea

I was thinking Deron Williams

@@JackCallSports yea that’s a really good one

Westbrick

Absolutely not, he was a killer on those garbage Indiana teams, but he did become a far better shooter though

@@titankiller5287 I would say his handle also improved

@@titankiller5287 Way more of a slasher on the pacers but after the injury, he started to play on the perimeter way more than before

@@kig4794 true but it didn’t help him overall though is the thing, he was the alpha on multiple EFC teams-he could get to the rim easily on Indiana now like you’re saying he’s a perimeter player-not a deeper bag, just different

@@titankiller5287 he defeinitely did get a bigger bag, since OKC he's improved on every single thing in his arsenal its just that hes not as aggressive as he used to be

kyrie is a top 5 refuse to change player

westbrook literally has been TRYING to adapt da fuck are you talkin about? he came in to the league seen to be as a defensive stopper. and what happened? became a superstar and MVP. and now is ave career lows just to try to fit in with lebron lol

@@jayow3391 no Westbrook refuses to play any off ball..

Trying to adept with harden and Beal too so ya refuse to change his game

@@augustilagan8496 and right now. Russ is only attempting like fewer shots like 13-15 while having the ball less in hsi hands more. Its the reason why he is struggling that much (played well the last 3 games tho) while lbj is having one of his best seasons too. He allows his teammates to be the best while he adjusts. 🥱🥱

I'd disagree there. Pre ACL he used to make poor playmaking decisions, such as rushing into opposing defenders crowding the paint, and was at best an average passer. There was a huge contrast as a playmaker between Murray and White during their time together, with White never getting flustered when defenses put pressure on him and having good court vision, unlike Murray who often looked to have tunnel vision on his offensive game and would get flustered and either lose the ball to a turnover or looking to get rid of it quickly to get the pressure off him, which typically would be before a set play or teammates were in a good position to score. So yes, he has improved tremendously as a playmaker. He had the physical attributes to be a playmaker before the injury but clearly he didn't have the maturity or mental aptitude to be one just yet.

@@patfer1189 Yeah, your absolutely right, his playmaking and mid range game improved alot, but I thought he was a good playmaker prior to the ACL tear, he just improved tremendously on that front after the ACL tear.

@@patfer1189 Yes, he makes a lot less mistakes, and finishes soooo much better. He used to drive into traffic so much, and jump without really having a plan whether he was going try to finish or pass.

While that's true, a lot of dudes go to being straight up 3 pt specialists once their legs get some miles on them. I don't think you could fit them all in a video, though certainly he had some of the most success at it as far as amazing playoff / finals moments.

@@blikketty77 He is THEE BEST EXAMPLE witch means he should have used him. if he came in the league the way he ended his career he would still have the all time record

I think the Sixers should make a push for him. He’d fit better than Tobias and can play a similar role to what he was in Golden State while also being able to create shots while Harden or Embiid are out.

@@TheFrostbite324 That would be an excellent fit I think

@@clevisbernier8973 yeah that or like Jae Crowder, Jerami Grant, Marcus Morris type 4

He still flops all the time

@@gatinthecadillac7206 I mean occasionally yes, but not like when he was still young lol

@@tedguanzon3499 you watch the finals? He was flopping like a fish
