Coach Nick breaks down the key to Game 1 between the Timberwolves and the Suns. While Anthony Edwards was the best player on the floor even with the presence of Kevin Durant, Devin Booker, and Karl Anthony-Towns, it was a key role player that made all the difference in this game.

Jaden and NAW's defense on Booker is the key to the series imo. Booker sets up and initiates the Suns's offense. Trapping him mucks up their ball movement, shuts down the Suns system and forces KD to iso. Since Jaden is on Booker the most, he might be the x-factor too

@mattbright9885 Ай бұрын

Was taught my whole life this was traveling. Once the pivot foot leaves the ground touching the floor again with ball still in possession results in a travel. If a player were to catch a pass and instead of using his dribble he pivoted around then “stepped through” he would be called for traveling every time. Is the difference if you don’t have the ability to dribble your then aloud a step through? Real ? not crying like a baby. The game has changed so much throughout the years. I mean they’re using instant replay to upgrade tiktac fouls into flagrants for Christ sakes.

@@nicholaskramer7783 im sorry can you please explain in greater detail? once the pivot foot leaves the ground you can’t touch the ground again or it’s a travel….yes or no? His pivot foot comes off the ground at the same time his right foot is touching the floor on the step through. Your saying it all has to do with the pivot foot touching the floor not the other foot yes? It’s very confusing. To take a step without dribbling is traveling but apparently you can take 1step when you have no dribble and 2steps when it’s off the dribble.

@@mattbright9885 The rule is as follows. " If a player, with the ball in his possession, raises his pivot foot off the floor, he must pass or shoot before his pivot foot returns to the floor. If he drops the ball while in the air, he may not be the first to touch the ball." When Ant raises his pivot foot he is allowed to take a shot, pass the ball or take a time out to prevent traveling per the rules. His choice was to jump off his opposite leg while keeping his pivot still in the air. Since his pivot foot does not touch ground again before the shot, it is not traveling.

I didnt expect Coach to be yet another guy who misreads KATs game, but it seems like everyonejust wants to pile on,. "Forces an awkward look..." the shot was awkward cuz he was mauled and as is typical didn’t get a call. Naz is great, obvi, but KAT is a good passer and can absolutely make the play Reid did in the video. He has some bad turnovers at times, but KAT is a skilled and willing passer.

Ant absolutely travelled on the pivot foot shuffle. He lifts his right foot up and places it down again after establishing it as a pivot on picking up his dribble, as well as sliding his heel just prior to the step through. The fact that Coach Nick says "basically" at the EXACT point that he clearly travels is ironic and hilarious (7:40). ALSO... IT SHOULD NOT BE CALLED, unless you start to call the aggregious carrying violations that the refs let go. I'm all for calling BOTH instances, and adhering to the rules as written - but let's start not start with the small stuff. Crack down on the big stuff, the rock-the-ball-to-sleep-and-sing-it-a-lullaby-in-the-middle-of-a-dribble carries. In the context of this game, in this league, this violation was such a small example that I'm fine with it not being called - especially given how much the refs weren't calling obvious shooting fouls. That doesn't mean that it wasn't a clear travelling violation, however, and I'd be curious to see what Sir Ronnie of Nunn's take would be. Edit: After watching 7:40 again, I was wrong. It's still a travel, but because Ant actually establishes his LEFT foot as his pivot after ending his dribble. He picks up his right foot while his left is grounded after taking the ball in two hands, then puts it down and moves his left foot. Again: Still a travel Again: Absolutely fine with it not being called given the context of this game's no-calls, and this league in general.

It’s definitely not a clear traveling violation, and I’ve asked some refs they all agree. He pivots from toe to heel which is legal, foot stayed anchored to the ground
