@@zackeastin1743 2 points or 2 possessions?

@AguanteTheWitcher Год назад

@@lukadonchich Basically at the end of a quarter you have to shoot it at 1:05 or close to that. That way you get more possessions at the end of the quarter. Is like a 2 for 1 when you shoot it at 35-31 second left because you know the other team is gonna use their 24 second so you get the last possession of the quarter. Here is the same concept but you shoot it earlier so that you get 3 shots (or possessions) up to their 2.

@DynamicAero Год назад

I am a huge fan of the NBA and specifically players with high basketball IQ, mainly because I don't play basketball myself and so the only real way I can track the games I watch is through the tactics of various plays. This video is a godsend for me trying to figure out how to read games well from the position of only having watched the game for a few years. Thanks JJ!

@Teezo13 Год назад

@clorenzpogi Год назад

The most interesting point of this entire compilation for me is the Draymond clip. He specifically says “it takes at least half a season for guys to really catch on (to the system).” When you watched GP2, Belly, Otto, etc. last year they fumbled a bunch on the court despite the great start they had last year. Their struggles were shown in the middle of the season when steph started missing games. However near the end of the regular season and come playoffs, they went from plays being created for them, to creating plays for Steph and Klay fluidly. One example is GP2’s handoff screens to Steph during the finals. I wonder if this year, since they’re doing complete dogshit in this half of the season, they’re gonna have a turnaround 3/4 of the way.

Its like listening to a physicist give a lecture on the math behind quantum physics 😂. I have no clue wtf you guys are talking about but I love it.

@peds103 Год назад

There's a video showing how Luka in the last play of the Bucks game figured out that the Bucks knew the Mav's play and was signaling the bench and CWood to change it up but no one else figured it out and he ended up in a difficult situation with Holiday on him and missed the desperation shot. He's the smartest on and off the court for the Mavs.
