One of the things that helps him is the change of pace. Kyrie is great at changing speeds to throw off the defense. In this video we break down how Kyrie has mastered the change of pace and how he uses it to score the basketball.

I think my favorite part of Kyrie's handles is his footwork. It's so clean. That first step is deadly.
also no one dribbles like him
Travel
His first step is average. The ones with deadly first step are Russ and Kemba and pre injury Rose.
His footwork is impeccable!!!
That is facts his footwork is what helps make his handle so great
@@JT_Breakdowns nba is scripted no different than the wwe
He is the best ball handler period !
Kyrie irving can do everything on offense.
That’s facts he is incredibly skilled
If he was as good as he is on offense on defense he would be top 10 all time i feel like 🤷🏾♂️
@@like_mj8549 Of course, diffetinely that will make him the greatest guard of all time. Especially that would make him a offensive juggernut and a defensive one.
@@slenduu better than MJ?
@@ry_an. ofc
what we really need to talk about is his ability to finish, to toss in a variety of shots. He's the most impressive player i've seen when it comes to that.
Watching Kyrie is like watching a Master in Action.
I'm 6'3...about Kyrie's height and let me tell you, that stuff he does is very, very difficult. I'm nowhere near the type of ball handler Kyrie is but the change of pace that he implements in his game is very elite. I tried to do this a few weeks ago and although I'm 35, I wasn't even 1/10th of his speed and I lost control of the ball. He HAD to probably start this at a young age (pre-teen years at the minimal) because if you watch his high school tapes, he's already doing his stuff you see today. It's footwork, knowing your body, and momentum then the handles come and adapt to the speed. He's played at a fast/change of pace game pretty much his whole life and not one person in the NBA can dance with him...and I love watching every moment.
At 44 and 6.2 I tried a few of those moves, I am damn slow and loose the ball almost every time. It still feels great just when it works once in a while. Switching the ball mid air to shoot from right of the basket to left of the basket is something I can't even try
He also slides his back ankle on the ground which makes his crosses more exaggerated which I think is a phenomenal technique but spooky to do lol
That’s a great point the sliding of the ankle exaggerates it more making it more effective
@@JT_Breakdowns right like he’s the only person in the nba I see slide it to that degree. Makes him lower to the ground too
Kemba walker💪👊👌😜
One of the best breakdowns of Kyrie's game I've ever seen. Thanks for this!
In the first 5 seconds you should have said "Kyrie Irving is known for having THE BEST handle in the NBA" There is simply no one better.
Facts
Michael jordan is better
@@fsfs2778 ball handling alone? Kyrie is better. Everything else MJ is better than him.
@@escamunicha4276 kyrie irving>mj
Pistol Pete
he is the ronaldinho of basketball
Bro I found your videos just last night and I’m amazed at how underrated your channel is and your understanding of the game and motion bro. Truly amazing keep it up!
He's more skilled than detroit's isiah Thomas with his handle, ambidextrous finish, & range! More refined than Ja. More court awareness than Rod Strickland. More tools than Steph Curry even!
Just plain lethal!! Hands down, greatest handle ever! Great compilation
It's funny how everyone is on his tip now but several months ago they were against him
That’s how it goes bruh. That’s why if you ever make it. Don’t care for the fans love like that unless it’s actually genuine.
And back to hating him again. Hard to love this guy unless you're a lunatic or a masochist.
@@jalo3087 a masochist tho? You think kyrie gets his dick hard by this news
This entire vid is GOATED❤❤❤
Just found your channel, Incredible high quality content but criminals underrated Chanel. Keep grinding you gained a new subscriber. I follow many big Chanels and content wise yours is right there.
Thank you I appreciate that more content to come!
Great video man your on your way don't give up
Thank you I appreciate that
"Never let them know your next move."
Kyrie's Life.
I love everything about him on the court. From the way he plays to the way he hardly ever celebrates. He plays like a pro and acts like a pro….like I said on the court lmao
recently tho? kryie has kept his head down and just balled out. while KD is out. its respectable and has shown some growth. maybe there is motivation because of a contract incoming or something of the sort, but he has been on his game outside of the court recently too
He acts like a well educated young man
@@paduls This aged like a spoiled milk.
@@jalo3087 the jinx never fails to work. blissful right now
@@paduls Yeah. If you're a Nets fan, double the happiness with the return of Spence.
Kyrie has also mastered the art of Change of Place.
It's not even that he's exceptionally explosive on that first-step as defender often are able to stay with him initially but he just gets it done with his handles, change of pace, footwork and shot making ability from anywhere.
He's able to get to his midrange jumper at any time because of it
Kobe esque creativity in shot making, even if he doesn't have nearly the size and athleticism. Just elite fundamentals and body coordination
Footwork is crazy!
Also a master of change of scenery.
You ever watch someone's highlights and just laugh at how good they are ?
Thank you bro
No problem
Earned a new sub🤝
Thank you!
Reminds me of how Peter Warrick (late 90's FSU football) would dead leg & accelerate/decelerate. Its a certain body rhythm that they've perfected.
I subbed. My fav nba player all time is Kyrie
Thank you!
Great vid
Thank you
I got a Nike ad during this video 💀
His change of pace from playing ball to not giving a shit to his job is pretty mind blowing.
All jobs come with bs. Why would nba be any diff? It’s even more toxic
How has he mastered the change of pace? Changing teams is one way to do it!
THE BEST HANDLES IN NBA HISTORY
I think the technique is lower your body and point your body forward so you can be faster to the point that you have to control your fall because you are too low and going forward
Kyrie is to tough 😮❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
BASKETBALL GENIUS
Flexibility+tendon/ligament strength+repetition with intent for creativity=Masterful Expression of Energy through Movement
GOATED!
💯🎯 hesitations and counters. If the defender commits to stop his first move Kyrie has a counter that can't be checked. Might have the best balance and touch in the league.
As he controls his pace, he’s also controlling the defenders momentum.
4:39 if you watch on .5 speed, the defender charged at Kyrie full speed. While he was beginning his next stride, Kyrie was already standing upright. The defender stopped but his own momentum literally sent his legs flying. Kyrie then attacked to the left because the defenders momentum was still carrying him in the opposite direction. Kyrie was timing his movements the whole time, shits crazy 🤦🏽♂️
Change speed, change direction 👌🏻
His foot work is A1 in the league
And also the quickest way to dismantle team chemistry and destroy any chance of that teams ability to win a chip. 👍
please don't try to mimic kyries movement if your body isn't as strong, mobile or explosive as his. often times it leads to injury so please train your body first 🙏🏽
One second he looks happy being in a championship contender team, next he wants out. Truly a master of changing pace
Aye yo lebronexual 😂
Glazing Lvl 101
@@mlindsey588😂
one thing i notice and never see no one talking about is how kyrie uses his offarm, when he gets in front of hes matchup its almost impossible for them to reach him
He has Mastered the Change of PLACE
Stunlock.
My knees hurt while watching this video
A symphony on the court, a chef in the kitchen, a merchant of death or a man among boys, Kyrie has created a new level. His layups are like Steph Curry’s 3 pointers.
U right on point. Handles are just like skins, movements are bones
encara Kyrie, encara Kyrie, encara Kyrie, encara Kyrie!
Let’s not forget he has also mastered the change of team
Ky is a walking highlight reel and can back it up on a regular basis. It's almost as if he can score at will. His off court nonsense gets old but damn, this dude can flat out play.
Literally my favorite player, but I must admit he travels off the triple threat especially his first step
He's also mastered the change of team
It’s gonna be crazy with him and Luka
It’s crazy how most nba cross they’re feet they make it soo easy for him
In soccer this concept is called “La Pausa”
1:43 how did he escaped that defense 🤯
He also mastered the change of teams
Kyrie brought elegance and masterful ball handling. I think Steph is at 2nd
Clarkson at 0:33 lol
Kyrie has phenomenal skills. Best handles in the NBA. Also a terrific shooter with range. Can finish at the basket with either hand. No weakness offensively.
This is something Jordan Poole desperately needs to learn how to do. He's always at 100%. To the point where defenders just wait for him to finish and then block his last move, which works way too often.
Hes good also in change of team
He is the Top Ball Handler! If not him then who? I'll be here waiting
More so than just Kyries acceleration he doesn't give many tells that he's gonna drive. It's what Kobe said about pump fakes just applied to a different aspect. It's the mind games. Kyrie knows how to throw out false signals to truck defenders. His instincts are good similar to how the other great players are
Good
Imagine if Ky was 6’6 😳😂
His handle would almost be as good as Jamal Crawford's was?
He probably wouldn't be the player he is now. Not as quick or as agile. Also because he's shorter than most on the court he can duck down low and use his shoulder to sort of "hide" the ball from the defender. I don't think he'd be able to as much of that if he was taller.
Nice dance floor
Best handles in history
Amazing. He was on pace to have a decent season in Brooklyn and he changed the pace of that too in a blink of an eye.
Yeah. That fucker values his money over the consequences of that on his team. I'm done rooting for this narcissist.
Greatest 🏀 handler ALL TIME.
That is facts
He has an uncanny ability to ignore the rim until he pulls up for a shot. I mean he knows where everyone and everything is at all times.
Proverbs 13:7
There is that maketh himself rich, yet hath nothing: there is that maketh himself poor, yet hath great riches.
The penetrator the best finisher and cross over.
Irving plays like a pro and behaves and celebrates like a pro. He is the best.
😍😍😍
5:14
Ngl when I first read the title, I thought Kyrie has mastered the change of place. Place, like, changing teams. 😬
Haha I can understand the confusion
Yeah Dude.....we know...
3:15
Kyrie has a special talent for coming to a franchise and making it worse .
One of the best to ever do it
Kobe and mj level without the mentality lol
This guy really with luka 😂
Prototype of the AI crossover
when it comes to handle ..Im ready to debate with anyone saying kyrie is better..🤷♂️
Kyrie is the GOAT
Best handle in the league
@@JT_Breakdowns Of all time.*
Not a hater but on the first two clips about the first steps he actually picks up his pivot before dribbling…i play in urope and i can assuuure you this would get called 100/100 times
Yeah he does travel but plenty of other nba players do it as well. They are much more lenient about it in the NBA
@@JT_Breakdowns A lot of his "handles" compared to other eras would be attributed to palming and carrying, too.
@@JT_Breakdowns opa, desculpa incomodar, mas poderia me explicar se isso seria realmente um infração na NBA?
His technique is one thing...but you need to have those ankles
Kyrie is currently the best player in the NBA. I hope the Mavericks can show him great respect .
Kyrie may not have, at least for now, the same number of championships or accolades as other legends and so may not be considered the greatest pg but I have no doubt that he is the best pg of all time. Not the greatest but for sure the best.
do y’all think kyrie is the most skilled of all time ?
he is, no question.
@@bemlisen2841 Steph is the same size as Kyrie and is far more accomplished.
@@streetcar5244 we're talking about skills here not accomplishments kid, go home.
Hard to judge fairly because the palming, carrying and traveling rules are so loose today. Today, no question. The rules have gotten looser and looser over time.
I'm not a hater but the first few clips of Kyrie are travels. He's picking up his pivot before the ball lands on the floor. Great Video though!
Everyone in the nba does it
Yeah I mean there’s a lot of players who get away with that travel of picking up the pivot foot but thank you!
Luka the Don finally has help
did you mean the change of place?
Change of team
he is also mastered the change of teams
When kyrie healthy and not crazy he top 3 point guard in the league.
It’s tuff to say because he plays more like a shooting guard but plays point. But still one of the top guards in the NBA
he nvr been crazy u fall fo the media too much
@Paul George the media? Have you seen him recently? He has been legendary in the 4th quarter. I don't watch his highlights, I watch full games.
@@SmallNick u said when he healthy and not crazy i thought u meant he crazy cuz of his antics lol
@Paul George nah I do think he is a bit loopy, but the main issue isn't with that. It's the fact that barring injuries, he's missed the last 2 seasons. And has a tendency to skip games.
