One thing i really like with your videos is that you always give players their flowers while also being very modest with their flaws. And honestly as good as Jayson is, he's just a really good player surrounded by talent that can compliment him, he's kind of like his predecessor Paul Pierce mixed with a little of T Mac too
@@braedensteele3184 I mean, I certainly agree with that - but it's easier to make All-NBA teams when you are drafted onto a great team, and have never once played on a bad one. Can you imagine Pierce taking all the shots that Tatum has missed when it counted? That's a lot of rings.
I dont know if it would do numbers, but I'd love for you to break down Al Horford's defense. I think he's about as complete a 4-5 hybrid defender as I have ever watched. Great strength, incredibly fast to elevate, and needs no time to reset to go back up, rarely fouls anyone unintentionally, and he's a complete menace off the ball, bc his positioning and activity means he is always available to help, doubles out of nowhere, and shows up in the passing lanes. A guy who started good, and has genuinely improved his game every single year of his long career. Didnt even know you had this channel, excited to hear more insights, I'll be following along from here on out.
Great video. Long time Celtics fan and now a Roy Hibbert fan. Always thought you were an underrated player and now realize you’re a great commentator and mind. Best of luck on TH-cam Roy
oh Snap its Roy Hibbert! As a celtics fan i loved watching him in his indiana days, he was a beast. I really enjoyed watching this, he breaks down the game for casual fans. would love to see a tatum breakdown video
My favorite part of Bostons defense is when teams relentlessly try to attack Hauser. 10-15 seconds wasted in the possession to get the switch they want only to realize Sam can slide his feet pretty well and it’s not a mismatch like they thought
Of the top ten players Boston puts on the floor, who else are you going to "target"? Your choices are Hauser or Pritchard. Pritchard's problem is his size . Everyone else is on a different level defensively.
@@TomTerrific-vm3qgeven with lack of size Pritchard has energy on defense so he still isn’t a complete liability so that’s extra good not every team has that luxury
@RoyHibbertYT I know you're a retired player. I watched you through most of your career. There was a time when you were that guy. I think maybe it was when Dwight was in his prime, but you were one of the reasons people would say, "The Pacers aren't an Eastern conference team" because it was so sorry back then. Anyways, I'll be watching
@@RoyHibbertYTIt really is, I’ve been especially impressed with Jaylen’s defense late in this season. He was a pest all year but the way he has been making opposing players uncomfortable in iso for the last couple months is something special, being so relentless on the ball. It’s like the speed/hands of jrue holiday but also leveraging his length and weight in ways that an average sized guard can’t. It just looks brutal to go up against. He really should get an all defensive-I hope lazy narratives don’t get in the way of that.
Would love to see your derrick white breakdown, especially after them winning the chip, his on-court tenacity (even at the cost of his tooth), and his prowess with on ball defense. Honestly think he's just a good/valueable as holiday when it comes to perimeter D due to his slight speed/agility advantage, and he's one of the best guard shot blockers since wade. Great video, as always
This is such a nice surprise to find your review, Roy! It's best case when ex player, who's been at top tiers for many years, having huge experience, know how from inside & love for the game, gives his thoughts & analysis. Been watching you being top D guy back then, thanks for dope video for my Boston prior to PO start. You're better than 99% of youtube
Figured all this stuff runs through my head when I watch games. So why not try to figure a way to out to the world. I’m gonna keep working hard to put out some good fun stuff.
hey, die hard heat fan here. just wanted to say good shit with the youtube channel, very entertaining! im 20, so i was 10 and 11 years old when i watched you give my Miami Heat a dogfight back in the LeBron era, I miss very much!!
Thanks for great content -i really enjoy former player commentary on YT way more than blabbermouths on TV -who are too busy creating false narratives and non existent drama -i remember when Adam Silver was on JJ's podcast -he said that this type of content is actually what league wants to see more -great job and subscribed 👍🏻
Niice, I'm a C's fanatic and this is a pleasant surprise of a video that just popped up in my YT feed! Great breakdown from a guy who definitely knows his defense, being part of NBA All-Defense selections before. And yes, please, on that Tatum video! Celtics content definitely spikes up views, so there's that too hehe. Got an instant subscriber with me, that's for sure.
Hey Roy, cool to see an NBA player doing a breakdown of what good defense actually looks like in a full video, it provides a cool change from the hot take media out there. One question, what NBA team would you say you've followed or watched the most this year?
@@RoyHibbertYT Shouldn't be surprised lol. Do you think Haliburton's slowing down is because of the injury and he'll bounce back next year or was he just super hot to start the season? I'd be interested in seeing you break down the Pacers because of how pacey and different they are.
Thank you friend. I’m a broadcaster for CBS college basketball. Making these videos gives me reps to do in the off season. So I’m primed for up coming season. Just in terms of breaking down plays in a digestible way for the audience.
As I kept watching your video, I also love your coverage of KP, Derrick and Jrue. Love these guys. The most cohesive, talented, unselfish team today. #bleedgreen
@RoyHibbertYT we're crossing fingers 🤞 this is the year! The Cs seem like such great guys both on and off the court! And I'm tickled that you, an NBA star, has a channel and interacts with fans! 😄
I loved ur game during the pacers days especially in 2013, i will never forget that u dominated especially against the defending champs heat in rebounds, anchoring pacers defense and pts in the paint majority of the series. Prime roy hibbert on this era is a way better rudy gobert. U deserved a ring man smfh.
This past season I went to game 3 or 4 in Indy. My first playoff series I attended as a fan since I was in college or high school when the wiz had a run.
Hey man just saying your my favorite center man a reply would mean the world loved watching you block shots and lock down the paint hope life’s treating you good
What’s up Roy? Big Celtics fan but I always enjoyed watching your pacers teams. Thanks for the breakdown. I’m worried because the Celtics actually need someone like you to deal with heavier bigs like embiid, jokic. KP is an underrated defender but he gets bullied sometimes.
Great stuff! Celtic fan here As the first game against Miami goes down in the Garden. I'm hoping a banner hangs from the rafters, the first I hope of a few more. With the exception of Tatum the core is signed for a few years and even White I believe comes a year after him They had a good year but when they lose They lose ugly and some of the wins even are close after having this gnawing problem of giving up big leads. Got to steamroll thru this and if Denver, a team that has a good chance of coming out of the West, plays Boston, it will make for a very memorable Finals. Going to be awesome no doubt.
Please cover the playoff matchups man, theres no such thing as too much nba players breaking down their art on yt. Would def watch every upload of that.
If Cs defense emerges during the playoffs they will get to the finals. When people say only the Cs can beat the Cs? I feel that's what it comes down to. Good D = Scoring opportunities
@RoyHibbertYT as Celtics fan Yes. Plus unlike Nuggets we actually brought back most of the Team. Plus we are young at least Jay brothers This team could win at least around 2-4 🏆
Roy appreciate the content , i dont know if your allowed to answer this but is the nba scripted or manipulated in anyway ? Seems a lot of gambling online has spiced things up with sports and im curious to know someone opinion whos been in the league
Boston IS NOT a top defensive team. If they were then they would have a higher rate of possessions. During the regular season, the Celtics finished 21st in possessions. The reason for their success is their high efficiency on offense.
@@RoyHibbertYT- Yeah, they played awesome today. It’s their championship to lose. I will say that the Celtics do have the second best opponent shooting percentage, so they are solid on defense. Just not the top. Maybe if they stopped shooting so well then we would have a better idea about their defensive strength. Nice video.
I’d rather hear basketball from a former NBA All Star player than those supposed “pundits” on TV that look like they never picked up a ball in their life. 🫡
Dude this is actually Roy Hibbert! Awesome to see you interacting with the commenters. Great stuff!
I have fun making the videos and fun talking hoops with the fans.
Huge Celtics fan so I'm loving this video. Miss seeing you on the court!
Ikr! Just discovered Roy's channel! So cool.
One thing i really like with your videos is that you always give players their flowers while also being very modest with their flaws. And honestly as good as Jayson is, he's just a really good player surrounded by talent that can compliment him, he's kind of like his predecessor Paul Pierce mixed with a little of T Mac too
Would that Tatum had an ounce of Pierce's grit, or killer instinct, he'd be unstoppable.
@@Mitch_Feraldamn that would be so insane. His ability to hit clutch shots is just something Tatum doesn’t have, and he may never have it.
@@WLJ1287 dude stop. Look at his clutch stats for his career BEFORE this season…
Paul Pierce never made a 1st team, Tatum might make his third this year by age 26. They are not the same tier of player.
@@braedensteele3184 I mean, I certainly agree with that - but it's easier to make All-NBA teams when you are drafted onto a great team, and have never once played on a bad one.
Can you imagine Pierce taking all the shots that Tatum has missed when it counted? That's a lot of rings.
Roy Hibbert talking about defense? Instant sub.
Best to hear it from someone that's done it at the highest level. Lotta credibility. Good breakdown
Appreciate that

U noticed that I like it. Love that u see that detail.
As a celtics fan who watched every game this season. This is 💯 true
Of the top ten players Boston puts on the floor, who else are you going to "target"?

Pritchard's problem is his size .
Everyone else is on a different level defensively.

Love that. I need to come back over there. Had fun last time I was there.
ROY!!! I didn't know you were in the podcast/content creator game. Goodto hear from you. Stay up man
Yea I am a retired player, broadcaster and content creator. Thanks for watching.

Thanks for the knowledge Roy, people underrate what you were defensively in the league fr
Thank you friend. Loved protecting the basket and playing defense back in the day.
We definitely need a video of you breaking down Jayson tatums game 5:22
Locked in.
Both Brown himself and others have said how much work he’s done on his defence (and his left 😂) and it’s great to see it paying off.
It’s paying off.

You were a hell-of-a player, Roy. Respect!
Thank you sir

Thx for replying dude@@RoyHibbertYT

Yall one of the best shooting teams as well. Can’t let a bad shooting night affect or effect your defense when your deep in the playoffs.
They have built good defensive tendencies this year
I hope you breakdown plays and games during playoffs
Tune in!!!

My apologies. Didn’t get to it

Working on it

Good breakdown bro
Thanks. All this stuff is in my head whenever I watch games. Figured I’d put it out there to the world.

I feel that's what it comes down to. Good D = Scoring opportunities
Jaylen Brown ENTER his 1st YEARS PRIMES 💪🔥💪
Just came from why we have the best offense in the NBA. If all of this is true why do some people not have us as the best team in the league.
My man got a lightsaber!
Just wait
Please please please do the Tatum breakdown, maybe if a pro provides some insight these casuals will stop the disrespectful hate.
I'll see if I can get one fine before the season starts.
@@RoyHibbertYT thanks a lot for the response, keep this channel going my guy
