Seriously though. I started realizing months ago. Like they actually running plays. Every position is a real play that they run. It’s just to us we walking people dribble dunk and shoot. An so I realize on defense they actually really playing defense it’s just the offense is better they picking apart the defense to score. Like playing basketball your doing it without even noticing but watching it you forget these are professionals. They actually every second of every play is focused asf an tryna score or steal the ball. These niggas really nice that’s for all sports and athletes
@@paulcrawford4155 exactly bro. It’s a whole other level. Like ppl would cast off shumpert as a role player but the amount of detail he is talking about to play defense is crazy. Even crazier is that Kobe recognized he was counting his dribbles and adjusted that fast. Another crazy story is Giannis describing what went through his mind on the blocked Ayton dunk. Like these guys really playing chess and we think it’s just athleticism.
@@paulcrawford4155as an athlete this is why we don't take avg Joe's seriously. You jus explained it perfectly. You are just now truly seeing the game think about how most fans and even tv analysis don't know wtf they talking bout...jus watching. Never been in the game before. Never been a leader of other men on a team. We really doing that shit in real time but it's watched to the fan as guys jus playing a game they love. They don't even understand it's a war on that court/field. Real humans tryna dominate each other... Knowing they're being watched and judged
Damn i felt bad when shump said "aint no body gonna call me.." indicating that he wasnt on any nba teams radars anymore. It was kinda sad hearing that ngl
When he first got on the Knicks I was watching a lot of basketball then and I live in NY State so I had the MSG channel and could watch all of his games and I've been a fan ever since. I hope he gets something going, he's a great story teller and could use that.
The thing I love most about perimeter defense is that there are levels to that discipline. If you pride yourself on being a good perimeter defender, guarding players like Kobe, KI, MJ, even Joel Embiid, is like an absolute nightmare.
@@AK-hg9qwEveryone has go to moves and sequences they like which makes it easy to take the ball or make a player pick up his dribble. Kobe had counters for everything so reading him was impossible.
Clips like this make you realize sports anime aren't completely ridiculous. Those long thinking sequences happen in real life. They just slow it down for us.
NBA basketball is highly technical almost like science or engineering. I enjoy hearing the technical details of the game like this. Thanks for posting.
No. It just has patterns. That’s what happens when you have a textbook of technique. That’s why AI, KI all break through the technical textbook def and still scores. It’s just about recognizing patterns and being proactive vs reactive
All sports are like that, that’s why some athletes are real successful even when they’re not freakishly gifted from a physical standpoint. When you think about it, Kobe’s one of them…
Kobe took alot of shots but in his later years it always seemed like he let the action come to him, almost like he needed it in order to decide what spot he was gonna choose, it was always about the pivot.
Here’s the thing yes Shumpert it gonna get hit for 20 because he guarding the best players the sign of a good/great defender at the nba level, is 1 v 1 can you either get a stop when needed or not be a total liability 1 v 1
and there's a reason these types of guys will always be guarding the best players. Coaches can see that. If he got lit for 20, other dudes might've gave away 40 points lol. Lebron was averaging 37 on Iggy but anyone can see how big of an impact Iggy's defense was compared to any other defender Lebron faced that year
@@devvv4616 exactly yes Lebron averaged 37 but it was on 39 percent shooting which isn’t as bad as it sounds but yes Iggy was giving up 37 but it was the hardest 37 anyones had to get 💯
I use to play like that against my friend in highschool we both went to different highschool he could never could guard me he get a few stopa there and there but i be playing then i switch it quick and be like i aint know you had that in the bag tbh as guard once a defender feel comfortable seein which way he can guard shift him so he dont know wat you got in the bag also if he rush you bop him then leave him
Until you get saucy. Love it. Cuz when you're really a player and you not for a mf trying you. Even with the greatest its your best bet to watch that persons game so you don't become his game
As you realize from the time kobe bryant retired from the time him and his daughter passed away which is still hard for everybody look how many players have so many of how great his game was instead of listening to the media who's to this day trying to tarnish this man's legacy over stupidity and ignorance what a shame
They tarnish players to uplift lebron💯they never said anything bad about Jordan to recently 💯only to try and convince the masses somehow lebron is 2nd best all time😭👎
@Dipset415 but here's my thing right I'm 38 years old I'm about to be 39 right God willing I saw jordan in the 90's and I really saw kobe and lebron for their entire career even if is number 2 why can't kobe be number 5 or 4 on the list? because of what the media thinks bro there no way in hell I think that lebron is way better than kobe no way in hell
@@jimmycharlotin7050 36 and I agree but lebron is not top 5 and I can agree not even 10 dude is a manufactured investment by the NBA. Kobe literally mimicked the greatest player ever and I could say he’s second based off skills🤷🏿♂️

I appreciate the critique & the support, bro, thank you for telling me a flaw to my face. I'm thinking of getting rid of the subtitles, don't know if they're necessary.
@@NBAClips0 naw they aren’t bro just keep dropping w/o it actually takes away only a slight amount though. Eventually you should start reacting to these so the fans of the clips become fans of yours as well.
I think Shump is a better defender in his head then he is in real life. When he tells stories about how he studies other players dribble tendencies and counting dribbles and anticipating other players go-to size up moves , you would think Shump is the greatest defender in history and has a bunch of DPOY trophies or all defensive team accolades. But he doesn’t lol When you go back and actually watch him play you’d see that He was a decent defender at best. And mostly gave up a lot of fouls and and-1s because he was always to anxious to swipe at the ball while shooters were rising up for a shot
You sound ridiculous. If you really played you know it’s really impossible to stop everything. You’re gonna get crossover sometimes, you’re gonna get scored on. Shrimp played in the best league in the world for a lot of years, don’t discredit his information for what you see on his tape.
Nah man just shows how high level the league is, he’s talking about Kobe, I’m sure other defenders had similar experience reviewing film Being in the league 8+ years deserves resepct
@@Stonecoldalston And we know Kobe was the king of counter moves and footwork.Had to be a nightmare guarding him lol and Shump didn’t even face prime Kobe he would’ve been exhausted 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Your inferiority complex is peeking. Jokic big sloppy ass is a great player but he is no where near the level of Kobe😂😂😂 you should post this comment under another video but not this one. Get ya mind right, boy.
Stories like this is why you can’t quantify the game with just stats. All of that stuff is going on in simple exchanges.
The real Meta that most wouldn’t understand. Like fighting, with feigns, most just think it’s physicality, much more intricate.

Very few can break the game down to the small details like Shumpert can. Great storyteller + great basketball IQ
Exactly why he was one of the better 1 v 1 defenders he knew he wasn’t the best offensively so he picked up on getting better at defense
Damn i felt bad when shump said "aint no body gonna call me.." indicating that he wasnt on any nba teams radars anymore. It was kinda sad hearing that ngl
He should just start a podcast because this dude is a natural talker. He wont need the nba anymore

Shumpert always has great stories
RIP Kobe..still can't believe you are gone bro.
I can listen to shump talk ball all day. This is the content ESPN wish they had. Keep up the good work fellas.
Kobe had every counter in the book 🐍

@@semajtheprod I obviously get that, I'm saying I don't get how Gil pointing is crazy or significant in any way

First 15 seconds hurt my heart man. Dude is so passionate.
He probably cares too much and calls out BS in the organization which people with power dislike
JJ getting his flowers 💐

Double check your subtitles because the auto generated ones have errors from time to time.
Literally was and am about to comment on it
It was much worse bro AI be tripping, but yea I'm gonna take care of this shit.
This would be fire if they showed the clip of kobe as he talking about him.
I gotta get a glossary to understand this convo but it's still entertaining
When have you ever see agent zero quiet for 4 minute straight. You know Shumpert story telling on another level.
That’s why them boys played so long
Wow, give this man a job on an NBA staff please.
Kobe definitely watching 40 hours of shump to prepare for the game too
he prolly watchin his parents old vhs tapes of him lmao
Lmao more like 4 come on
Countin dribbles is crazy this man the modern dennis rodman😂😂😂
Rondo did that too
A lot of great defenders do stuff like that, try to figure out opponents rhythms, timing, limits, weaknesses, etc.
I was ryhtm defender too but offensively I attempted to break rhytm. Just like boxing break up patterns.
Shump has the best Kobe story, best one was the Vlad interview
This just shows how elite the nba is iman is the next level in his preparation but is just good player . Average really but damn
He been like this that playoffs when he stripped wade twice then wade injuried him with a move crazy
Never realized iman was that smart i knew i liked his game just didn't know why
He need to coach. He'd raise absolute wolves.
Here’s the thing yes Shumpert it gonna get hit for 20 because he guarding the best players the sign of a good/great defender at the nba level, is 1 v 1 can you either get a stop when needed or not be a total liability 1 v 1

Nuggets of wisdommmm
I’ve never heard any player describe LeBron’s individual offense like this. How is he better than Kobe? I don’t see it
Shumpert described LeBron’s “team offense” like this. The Lebron stories might be better tbf
i was thinking the same exact thing 🤣
No individual offense. Most points in the NBA
Kobe was a killer in the league and Bron been a victim

In Gilbert Arenas play check if his whole career that's why he never did anything in the postseason and has zero rings
Gil prob struggling not being able to scream whenever the wants
😂 the fact he told you that’s cute you never was in control of nothing lmao
Humans are creatures of habits, so it good to be unpredictable every now and then
Bro clowning shump cause he didn’t win awards..saying he fouling..if you dont have fouls by the end of the game..you not playing defense at all 😂
