One of the low key qualities he has is that he knows when to attack and when to shoot from range. If the opponent has a taller rim protector you can bet the over on his 3s. If the other team is small ball you know he is cutting tot he rim. Sweet video
Darius has ALWAYS had a strong basketball foundation as far back as elementary school. I've been keeping up with him since then. His father, Winston Garland, was an NBA guard, so Darius having a strong basketball foundation early on, in my eyes, due to his basketball background. His handles has always been tight, a great shooter, a great playmaker and high basketball IQ. I believe it was more about adjustment to the pro level than inefficiency. Every player has, had to, and will continue to adjust when they enter the NBA. once he adjusted, his efficiency improved. However, he's a very fundamental player.
surprised to hear his TS is league average because when you look at the 2p%, 3p%, and ft, it's at 51/38/89 which is amazing, especially for a 6-1 guard
@@yunan9610 Many guards his size are worst at the rim. His finishing at the rim is typical. This dude just has high standards for guards finishing at a high percentage at the rim but that's very difficult when you have bigs meeting you there.
@@j-us-t_be-in-g I'm just saying that might've been the cause for his TS% being on league average even with how efficient his split stats are. The number of FT attempt could also be the cause, it might be so low that it doesn't really bump up his true shooting percentage. With that being said I don't know the actual stats and I just pointed out the rim finishing cause it's on the video, but idk if his standards are high or not unless I have the actual stats for the best guards in the league. Then again it's not really about how good he is, it's about the TS being on league average
@@j-us-t_be-in-g okay I just checked his FT attempts is at 3.5 which is on the lower side even with 89% FT percentage. His effective field goal percentage is actually pretty good at 53.6%
His game is so nice to watch, he basically built the entire cavs offense last year. I think he’ll work well with Ochai Agbaji if they end up playing a lot together as both (hopefully) present a major outside shooting threat
Well, since he's in Cleveland and not named Lebron then more likely than not he'll have a VERY quiet career. Multiple all-star seasons for sure but quiet nonetheless.
@@ballinboxer3676 If he's winning he will make noise plus he's a superstar type dude. Markets dont mean nothing anymore in 2022, you can be big in any city as long as you win and perform great.
@@YodaSmokes Exactly. There are infinitely more casual NBA fans than there are hardcore fans. Thag's the cade for anything. Not everyone needs to be a hardcore fan lol
Remember his rookie year they said he wasn’t gonna be a good playmaker and needed to work on it? Now look at him, proving the haters wrong and is already one if not the best passer in the league
reminds me of a young Chris paul in that he scores very well by leveraging how good he is a passing. Hes also one of the better pick and roll guards in the league
You had me a little scared with the heavy usage of stats at the beginning, but I can tell by the rest of the video that you are really dialed in and you know what you’re talking about. Thank you for not being another one of those NBA youtubers that straight up seem like they don’t watch the games
Not Trae level yet. Idk if he's even made the playoffs yet. He's a very talented player, really solid fundamentals, but comparing him to Trae "Without the ball in his hands" doesn't make sense. He's more like a cp3 type of player.
the Cavs have a dope roster and it's thanks in large part to how stupid the Nets are 😂 they gave up Levert and Jarrett Allen and basically ended up with Ben Simmons
@@AlexHoops When you say his 3pt percentage went from 30% to 40% for ex. His efficiency didnt increase by 10 percent, it increased by 10 percentage POINTS. (Or by 33% actually.)

Just be honest, he came out the womb w abilities others didn’t.
He's an ideal point guard for the modern NBA

DG’s Playmaking is truly insane I’m glad you dived into it and this was the best analysis I’ve seen of Garland. Great Vid!
We’re just leaving the ground floor. Dude is rising FAST. 🚀
Garland is so good. The he makes the cavs so much fun to watch, man’s a bucket
He gets carried by Jarrett Allen but its whatever
@@jhendo17 no tf he doesnt
@@jhendo17 what 😂😂 jarret allen isn’t scoring any more than 10ppg unassisted
@@ry_an. exactly which means that garland is stat padding his assists by using his father jarrett allen to get easy buckets in the paint
@@jhendo17 man literally shows in the video how much better Mobley and Allen is offensively when DG is on the court with them y’all just be talking
Cavs making it atleast to conference semifinals this year and Darius is going to improve way more 💪🏿
Thanks for the video! I think Darius Garland is going to blow up and become one of the best point guards in the league. Go Cavs!!
You deserve far more subs! You literally make the content I love the most: player breakdowns. Keep up the good work!
Really interesting, well made video. The Cavs are really exciting.
Keep making the garland videos because they will blow up this year
Keep in mind Garland doesn't have spacing yet. His best catch and shoot three point shooters were Lauri and Cedi who both shot around 38 percent.
now hes got them, kevin love, ochai agbaji and a returning collin sexton. we’re gonna see some fun dimes from him
W Garland video, would be cool to see a video on Desmond Bane or on Jamal Murray/Michael Porter Jr to hype up the Nuggets next season
I love Garland, excellent video.
amazing video i love garland praise
Garland-Mitchell is going to be BONKERS. Holy shit.
If this guy becomes cp3 2.0 with that supporting cast, i’d be damned
I agree. He reminds me of a young CP3 without the defense
@hanteo Garland the next #Damianlillard

He has to get to the foul line more frequently if he really wants to get it up
Love your channel bro, keep it up!
Keep it up Alex! I love your videos

Keep up the good content brother
Great analysis
The Cavs run a 3 big man lineup with Lauri at the 3.
I wouldn’t say quietly. He can honestly have the best career of any young guard rn

dang, didn’t know that. i thought the selling point for drafting him was his playmakimg
@@odokawa1 nah the real reason why cavs so high on him was his shooting display..but i agree that his passing game is better
im glad i never doubted him
reminds me of a young Chris paul in that he scores very well by leveraging how good he is a passing. Hes also one of the better pick and roll guards in the league
He always been the next cp
To me
Young Chris Paul without the defensive and all around game of Cp3. I think Nash is a better comparison for DG
I think a lot of basketball has to do with the team. Cavs big 3 is unique and can be really good for many years. They compliment each other so well.
good vid
May God bless you
Everyonme has weaknesses due to their bodies that they can't change. They can only make the best of what they were born with.
He’s the 3rd best player from the Zion and ja draft he reminds me so much of cp3 cavs better hold on to him
They got a chance to take some teams 6, 7 games....I can see them getting to the second round and being a tough out...
Unfortunate truth, but one of the best things to happen to the Cavs was sexton's injury.
Garland is the future
Since highschool I was comparing him to CP3 and Kyrie to a degree
W channel
Wlex hoops with a common W
I really wanted the Bulls to draft Darius Garland back in 2019. Of course, the Cavs ruined it for me.
A Nash-type in the making? It sure looks like it.
Cannot wait to see this Cleveland backcourt.
Bro made an all star team and this guy talking about quietly lmao
Lol true. Also it's nice seeing you here 😊
I don’t see how they keep section now

Ah, but did you know that Garland's offense IS his defense?
Mga sinayang na draft picks ng Lakers...
2017 picked Lonzo Ball over Jason Tatum
2018 picked De Andre Hunter over Darius Garland
😭😭😭
I love your channel
🔥
a more elite Bk dlo
Garland is not 6’2 im maybe 6’0 and i was feet away from him this year at a cavs game and im taller then him
so shifty and clever
He’s what trae young is if trae didn’t have the ball so much

You need to get yourself a pop filter bro, can't watch this with headphone
Will do
Garland looks good, but Idk about All-NBA. Man I hope he lives up to all the hype

Trae
Luka
there's still rondo zo and melo lingering too
@@SaiyanTachiZoldyck Rondo better than Garland in 2022??💀💀
@@SaiyanTachiZoldyck stop
Jokic playmaking is limited, compared to a guard like Garland two different levels.
@@CarnagexSena could make the argument
He washed now
He’s over hyped and buddys contract was a joke he don’t deserve 231m… I’d give that money to pat bev before garland
Good thing you’re not a GM
You're a joke, Garland is a young superstar you are not educated on basketball.
