Drago Fucksomanydumbitchesbutbigboobsthoughso in summer the temperature in average is almost the same in Germany and south Europe and there are more factors important for the temperature than just sunshine time, for example the sea which reflects heat, streams in the sea and so on
on the pole you have a day of 6 month, its not the time but the suns angle the determents the temperature. near the aquator the sun has the shortest way through the atmosphere so its usually hotter. on the other hand the length of the day don't differ very much in winter and summer, while it gets more extreme going north or south from aquator.
This coach is a mad genius! Who cares if his methods are unusual! As long it works! Plus he coached a champion! If you're smart enough... his methods work in unsual ways! #HolgerGeschwinder
glad they did not wake them up with "We are the Champions" sung by Dirk :) ...great practice...everyone is a better basketball player, rower, soccer player and dancer now ..and god knows what else they did :)
He must be doing something right he made Dirk. Dirk was one of the best. I remember him being in the stands during dirks championship run and crying when dirk won 😢
I was playing with Holger for one year and I was about 20 years younger. Now I would teach all the young guys that Basketball or any other sport is not the only sense in life. You have to increase your abilities in all spheres , so I am doing music, dancing, I am reading and practicing meditation, learning about plants, animals, and nature. When I was a coach for some years I made yoga with the kids and after many years they were very thankful for that. We also met together after practice and were talking about everything including the universe. So I can advice everybody not to be complete singleminded , focused only on basketball.
Half you guys forgot that they worked their asses off at the beginning of the camp. You can see that they all undershot instead of overshooting. Stop acting like you're all fuckin Steph lol
If you can have fun doing what you love, then you will go farther with it. And they are definitely having fun. It's so much easier to remember and apply techniques that you enjoy. Good luck guys.
That very last shot of the kids jumping off the deck was GORGEOUS!!! Kudos to whoever made that creative decision! (and with the operatic voice?!!! NICE.)
A very cool video, I don't like the title though. Just because something or someone isn't understood at first sight it's easy to say they're crazy, but that's an insult in my opinion. And not once in this video was he called crazy (verrückt in German) was he? Instead the methods were unorthodox, unconventional, unique, ... which have a very different sound to me. That's all the criticism I have though, thanks for giving him some spotlight and making this!
+SlayGamers sorry been watching too much knb lately. coach riko and her father (or should i say the mangaka of the manga) may have thought about this kind of training
I remember my whole crew liked playing football instead of basketball because we were more competitive in a sport that wasn't our primary... Basketball we just enjoyed, football was for kicking each others asses :)
Rythm, coordination and propriception are 3 of the most important things in basketball. He tries to develop that in the kids at a young age because their brains arent fully developped yet. His technique is unorthodox but it is great.
just one quick view on holger's techniques show that he's very aware of the fact that his 'kids' are already ambitious.still, adapting to his methods is beyond the adolescence thingy and only the most focused will maje it. great conception of the camp though!
I would prefer consistent repetition as an athlete and a coach. I don't find this useless but I don't think that this is any secret or good method. In a short and long period of time consistent basketball-only dribbles would be a lot more effective for the single players abilities. Of course its not fun to shoot 200 3 pointers from every possible direction but in my opinion thats how you certainly get better. By doing it day in day out. I don't know what the exact purpose of this camp was and if Holger actually trains a team. But just because he allegedly discovered Dirk Nowitziki does not make him a good coach for me.
That is not the point of the camp. Its a one week training camp for kids to get an insight view into the commitment you have to make if you are a pro. Obviously you have to do you 200 3 pointers in your general training. This is not what your everyday training should be like except you do your 200 3 pinters or whatever on top. Its kids and they should have fun and explore some new things.
After single-handedly coaching/creating the best shooting PF that the NBA has seen so far, who the fuck would still be critical of this guy & his methods? lol...Maybe if Shaq (or another poor shooter) went to him, he might've fixed his free throw form! lol...I'm pretty sure this guy also coaches the German national team!
+IIPointmanII I agree with that 100%! he would be a bigger deal if he had even one more rotation player in the NBA, let alone star! ...My point was just that he could just become the free throw whisperer! Poor shooters, especially FT-shooting bigs (Dwight, DeAndre, etc) should go to him so he can fix their form and mechanics.
+ATL Well Cuban offered him an assistant job first of all; I don't think he was offered a player development position or something, which would be more ideal for him imo. Imagine if he get a guy like Tyson Chandler to start shooting jumpers well...would completely change the game! Rondo, Bass and Devin Harris all went to Gershwinder?
Def agree rowing is better then lifting weights. Always heard hockey goalie coach's will have their student do 1000 pushups before 1 set of curls because you lose certain flexibility after weights
@Daniel S so do the Americans besides Basketball, American Football and Baseball. Ask them Something about the Champions League , they couldnt tell you much about it. But thats normal, every nation has their own (sport-)culture
@Daniel S We are not intolerant of any sport, you will not find any country in the world that has more leagues and organised teams of such a rich diverse field of different sports. Soccer is just the most popular here, thats all...and there is nothing wrong with it, like nothing would be wrong if lets say gymnastics or badminton would be the most popular. The only thing here intolerant is you, for not accepting that other people have a different answer to the question which sport they like most, so you smear them.
Rowing is all lower body... Basically all leg drive. Don't know what the guy was talking about training the upper body on the water unless they're rowing wrong.
yo how these kids keep throwing up bricks like that with a coach that taught dirk how to shoot? Geez ive never had a trainer and im considered as one of the best shooters in my highschool like i trained shooting for not very long and i average at least 3 threes, 4 midrange shots and if im having a good day i can hit 6 threes its not hard just fucking aim and know how much power u need for each shot, and if u didnt know follow through helps, it does that was one of my wrongs when i wasnt a good shooter. Good luck to everyone whos training there shot. Believe in yourself and dont try to overthink it too much it could just be your form if it doesnt work out as well.
I would always laugh and joke with my buds about Dirks pregame stretches they looked so unorthidox now I know
when you r german but ya still reading the english subtitles haha

The Master Roshi of basketball..
TheAyeJays underrated comment
When the opera singer turned up, I finally knew Holger was crazy. Nevertheless his brilliance and class outshine the craziness by far
Connecting dribbling with beats is creative.
glad they did not wake them up with "We are the Champions" sung by Dirk :) ...great practice...everyone is a better basketball player, rower, soccer player and dancer now ..and god knows what else they did :)
This coach is amazing...
His first task in his basketball camp...
Is to spell his surname
🤣
He must be doing something right he made Dirk. Dirk was one of the best. I remember him being in the stands during dirks championship run and crying when dirk won 😢
I wish I could have gone to a camp like this when I played soccer.
This the type of shit I'm subscribed to vice for. Great video!
I love unorthodox approaches to ANYTHING. This guy is brilliant.
Simply Genius!!! I thought, I was but this guy made me feel I need to go back to basics of basketball. Superb system!!!!

thanks, vice sports! keep giving us new prospectives of sports
i love the diversity that basketball has, and how it brings everyone together regardless of background
host looks like Key from Key & Peele
thats a good ass way to wake someone up
That very last shot of the kids jumping off the deck was GORGEOUS!!! Kudos to whoever made that creative decision! (and with the operatic voice?!!! NICE.)
That moment when u expect an English video but hear ur mother tongue all of a sudden
when they dribbled together i thought of High School Musical lol
Großartiges Video Vice Sports!!
this guy is a genius. unorthodox but very effective. german technology?

well, its clickbait ^^
its a reference to the things that Holger had to hear when he first proposed those ideas.
crazy is good
never thought this kind of training happens in real life.
??????
+SlayGamers
sorry been watching too much knb lately.
coach riko and her father (or should i say the mangaka of the manga) may have thought about this kind of training
+shin tenshin Aomine dominates knb.
shin tenshin berserk is better
production value is always incredible
Dirk shot in 2k is crazy good
this the guy in the movies that the kid thinks he’s crazy but it actually works
I would like to go there
The Jakji Bros Challenges/video games/More ihr wohne da
I've watched waaay too many marine boot camp videos so I was expecting neanderthal screaming and complete annihilation lol
Nearly no military around the world is screaming like the US is tbh :D
BESTER MANN! Thank you VICE SPORTS.
He is not a crazy coach, he is a basketball Shaman.
iheartbong Sharman.
Best part : 2:08 to 2:38
Awesome Video, thx for the work!
Great Documentary !
Their concentration on this cap is insane
Ttenneb Sicnarf, das ist nicht lustig.
I remember my whole crew liked playing football instead of basketball because we were more competitive in a sport that wasn't our primary... Basketball we just enjoyed, football was for kicking each others asses :)
The music + basketball part was awesome
The Dirk Nowitzki documentary on netflix has some other footage of Holger's teaching methods.
8:30 LOL I went to school with this guy
Was he any good at basketball?
They should do a Vice Sports piece on Conor McGregor's weird ass movement coach lmao
Some of the shit he can do because of that coach is crazy though
+Mike Clayton Fuck Conor McGregor.
1:28 name of the song? please!!
.
Rythm, coordination and propriception are 3 of the most important things in basketball. He tries to develop that in the kids at a young age because their brains arent fully developped yet. His technique is unorthodox but it is great.
8:38-8:53 did anyone else notice that no one made a shot lol
Lol that shit is hilarious
+Cole Porter They were meant to miss.. :)
+Caret Ligenda no they weren't
+Cole Porter That guy was telling them to miss right
+waldaable no he said you cannot miss
And now he's Mr.30 000 !
This is a gem!
i wish I can be there!! Awesome and Super Hardworking Coach!
how would i get into the camp i looked it up on the internet and found no help
This guy is a genius
what is the song that plays during their warm up dance at 2:07? its groovy.
That ESPN skit about Nowitzki camp was on point ;D
Tnx coach for teaching dirk How to be a Hall of Famer ❤
1:28 Anyone who knows the music for waking them up ?
9:58 - Which song is that?
Where can I find the perfect shot documentary?
i like how he gives this one guy a push in the end :D
Where online do I find info on his camp?
"You cannot miss you cannot miss!"
*takes shot*
* misses*
What's the song at 2:11?
At first I thought the craziest thing about the coach was that he created a 3 point shooting 7 footer. I was wrong .
anyone know the name of the song at 1:29?
I like the idea of rowing instead of lifting weights, but why would you warm up by kicking a football around instead of by dribbling a basketball?
Teaches better footwork.
anybody know that name of that jazzy song that played near the end?
ITS LIKE THE BASKETBALL DANCE SCENE IN HIGH SCHOOL MUSICAL GREAT
just one quick view on holger's techniques show that he's very aware of the fact that his 'kids' are already ambitious.still, adapting to his methods is beyond the adolescence thingy and only the most focused will maje it. great conception of the camp though!
8:50 please kill me please Ayooo 😂😂
where do I sign up
May I kindly ask, what is the song at 9:59, please.
Not kind enough, sorry
Dope shit!
The title was the best part
Damn over here in the US 6 am is never that bright 😂

i hope that would be in Romania too ...

who else has he coached that is notable though? I would guess that maybe 5% of his students have made it to elite level in any country
he's no better than the majority of coaches imo

why Germany has only one team competing in euroleague?
in germany we play more soccer hhahaha
basketball is not as populare
δημητρης παπ. basketball is a very niche sport here
I think there were three. Ulm, Bamberg and Bayern Munich.

You know it doesn't matter what methods you do to improve your game as long as u get better and work hard

he means that holger thinks crazy sometimes :)
*creative sounds better

Congrats you're an average shooter, keep in mind these kids worked their asses off all day so they're undershooting everything because of the fatigue
Yo... imagine how specialized this dude’s job is. A German-English Basketball Reporter. How many of those r there?
This is the kind of training you see in Kung Fu movies
"If it is stupid but works, it isn't stupid"

love this. awesome coach. great perspective. really unique!
LMAO I thought this was going to be the old dirk commercial
