🤣🤣

It's clearly the driving force here, no other explanation.

He became more aerodynamic

He lost his motion 😂 cutting his hair

The hair was dope asf tho

No doubt

The past two seasons

Not by Kings fans!! :)

Agreed with that, it's about time for a Sabonis video too!

The kings are being slept on heavy

Deserves a lot more credit!

He’s deff one of the top guards in the league this year

Great D is letting Dame skip right past you at minimum speed for a game winning 3 ? 🙄

@@Six_Four_InA_64So one play defines whether you play good defense on a regular basis? 🤔

@@Six_Four_InA_64Also that was not “minimum speed” by dame, but ok.

Kidd's a great call, I think Carter always had that shooting but because he was such an athletic phenom it didn't get talked about enough. Vince shot 41% from 3 on 5 attempts a game in his 3rd season!

@@HoopVenue🎯🎯 Vince won the 3pt shootint and dunk contest in McDonald’s All-America Game though of course the line is shorter but Vince has always had a shot but it just goes to show how much athleticism and what he was doing attacking the rim could make people not see or forget he could shoot. On the flipside not debating the points but anyone can change their shooting like that but the most important part about shooting is the least stressed if even mentioned at all which is to shoot with confidence at all times while also believing you’re a shooter which of course aids in shooting with confidence. These players can knock J’s down doing reps but when it doesn’t translate it’s not that they can’t shoot. It’s not the lights cause they perform. It’s the mentality. These shooting coaches don’t stress the mentality. You can shoot 100k jumpers a day but if your mentality lacks in games it’ll show. Giannis, Russ don’t shoot with true conviction among others. Shooting cause you’re open, feel like taking a 3, feel dared, feel naysayers saying you can’t shoot can aid but not like, “I’m Money & This money all day” whether you make or miss and every single shot taken the mentality doesn’t waiver. In a summer Brooke Lopez became a 3pt shooter and while people say reps they’ll come back to mentality. Of course better form will aid anyone but there’s also shooters who don’t have textbook form but still are great shooter. This again attests to things mentioned but still lead back to mentality. You have to shoot with conviction not repetition. I’d have Giannis shootin’ the lights off because with his work I’m in his ear constantly. You’re supposed to wake up a shooter, eat, walk, talk, think, believe and so on as you go to sleep a shooter. But the thing that you mentioned that gets glossed over is that a Giannis is great without being a shooter but it gets scoffed at cause he takes them from time to time and in general when someone can’t knock them down but take them. You can’t make then in a game unless you take them. Relying on it is a different thing because there’s being 3pt shooter and being a shooter which means 3 level shooter not to mention anyone who tightens up their mid-range game will have a more seamless transition to being a 3pt shooter. A corner 3pt shooter can never be one of the best 3pt shooters just one of the best corner 3 shooters. No one ever says “all 3pt shots made are not created equally” but they’re not except for being three points. We want high percentages, good percentages but each game that stuff doesn’t matter. Yes, you pay more attention on D to shooters but if a dude shooting 29% from 3 hits 6-11 in the game what did that % mean that game? Giannis, AD and others bring things to the table that while 40% from 3 would be 👀 but they just need to be around 33% if that cause they do so much more besides shoot 3’s. Honestly, you really just need to be able to punish open looks, hit timely ones when needed, maintain being a threat from 3 which opens up their game more. Ben Simmons returns to his game shoots 30%-33% and can punidh open looks he becomes way more dangerous while people focus on the % and say why shoot but then if he doesn’t shoot any he gets dogged for that too lol. Now if all you do is shoot 3’s then yes you better hit near or at 40%. Dillon Brooks with his defensive intensity and D doesn’t need to shoot a high or even good %. No one specifically but people focus too much on what’s not being done over what a player is actually bringing to the table. Off subject, but I was telling people weeks ago Shaq & Barkley, everyone else ragging on Zion’s weight are trippin’ hard. One, he didn’t have problems with health until that nike shoe exploded on him but can’t bite the hand…. Yes, he could be in better shape but people taking like he’s averaging 7/3/3. If I’m a coach and they tell me a guy who knows how to play with that athletic ability can get me 20+/5/5 but he’s outta’ shape. I say I don’t care what he’s outta’ and we can work with him. Part of why Jokic gets looked at as being better is based on shooting though best shooter doesn’t mean best player. Now Jokic as a better offensive weapon as far as shooting okay as they’re both offensive weapons but Giannis is the better basketball player with no question but point being which the nba knows is shooting can get some people to overlook other components of the game though that’s not truly justifiable in real hoop. Defense is by far the harder side of the ball to be elite, very good, even good. Effort, knowing, where to be are the bare minimum but you can give a green light to just about anybody on the squad and you’re getting 20-25+ regardless how but you can’t give a green light to go be elite or very good on D. I had to add my reasoning and couldn’t just say Giannis is a better basketball player than Jokic

Nothing but glazing and riding

@@boredhazelweird ass kid

Means a lot, appreciate your support!

Jxmmy Highroller has the best channel . This second best tho . IMO of course

Yeah, the FT% is one of my few concerns. I've seen some people talk about him rushing his FTs but haven't gone too far into it.

@@HoopVenueit’s just interesting cause I’ve always had the idea that consistent shooters tend to be very consistent from the free throw line. I’d be curious to see his routine

@@HoopVenue especially the first one. he will often miss the first and make the 2nd

Dude was on an all time fluke run. It's all over now that he only shot 33% on 3s since the new year.

@@ho560402 staying true to your last name

Especially with how fox has been training him. Keegan is in the best situation for his development. I believe that in most other teams he wouldn't be half the players he's shaping to be. With the way mike Brown and even the fans are always supportive of him even when he plays bad I genuinely can't see him not being atleast a 20ppg 5ast and 7 reb kinda guy

Yeah, last year he would have stretches of good percentages, but the confidence of taking the three is what stands out. This video puts stats on what the eye test has been saying. It was the same with Fox's midrange; he would have good percentages for stretches early on, but last year was when it went to "this is not only automatic, but Fox KNOWS it's automatic." That level of confidence hits different and changes how the defense plays you.

Colin sexton as well he plays hard and can get a 🪣

especially dsj i had high hopes for dennis smith jr

@@luhstick3826same. Aye he doing nice tho. Good defender and playmaker! He will always have a spot in the league with those skills.

I really appreciate that man!

Some great picks!

Luka is among one of the classiest in the league for sure.

Gonna be a good matchup tonight

Glad you enjoyed, thanks for watching!

Agree with everything you said, glad you enjoyed the video!

Monk is awesome

That means a lot, thank you!

Thanks for watching!

He would if it wasn’t for some of the other insane performances this year

Not possible without your support, appreciate all of you watching the videos!

Facts

Glad you enjoyed!

Glad you enjoyed!

Glad you enjoyed!

Couldn’t hit in game 7 though

Terrence Davis arguably was our best performer in game 7, I don’t get why he isn’t on the team or league anymore

Thank you!

More people are catching on, should be a much bigger talking point for sure.

@@HoopVenue facts💯

Thanks!

Well deserved!

Facts

For real, people obsess over efficiency numbers at the rim for Ivey but aren't putting enough respect on how effortless it is for him to even get to the rim. Give the dude time to figure it out.

Srsly, pistons have good players and they are only losing by a few points, they just need to figure it out

Love that trio

Exactly, just gotta hope he doesn't fall in love with it.

Great shoutout!

W!

Now he's a top tier shooter

Agreed, but improved shooting could also help open up drives, so at that point it becomes more about tendencies than anything.

Shai's had great outside shooting seasons before, he's a really unique case study.

I’ve always felt that Shai would be around the 35-37 range (which is where he is at now) with his shooting since most of it is off of step backs since he isn’t a bad shooter just doesn’t really get catch and shoot opportunities. Would like to see a couple more pull up shots in transition since everyone is expecting him to drive in those situations which could lead to more separation.

I would love that, but the nba has it's darlings that they promote and unfortunately fox ain't one of them. Maybe he can work his way there.

You also have to keep in mind how the mid range shot factors into those 2s though. Players like Giannis shoot upwards of 80% at the rim, and the league average is close to 70% I believe. Shot selection has a lot to do with 3 point shooting reigning supreme.

From what I hear someone who works with the Sacramento Kings is he's got an injury that he's playing through and I think it's on the shooting arm. And ankle hasn't healed completely!

I made a video on him as well!

He only trained a little bit, we have a player coach named luke loucks who helped him develop. Dude even went with fox and his new wife on honeymoon to continue training

@@woodlandmac yup the dedication is amazing. What makes it more amazing is that his wife apparently is harder on Fox than Coach Brown is. So he got a good supporting cast to motivate and push him to be the best.

It really isn't that simple though, otherwise every professional would be able to make that type of leap! Glad you enjoyed though, thanks for watching.

He wasn't shooting like this from 3 a year ago!

I talked about that in my Barnes video, another amazing leap!

i had to watch on 1.25x to not fall asleep fr
