+rasenganb41 Aside from towns and porzingis who imho will be (super?) stars. this draft possesses a really solid top10 picks, hezonja being the only one who didn't get consistent minutes, really good late lottery picks in Turner, Lyles and Booker, and also a lot of potential steals in Portis, Jefferson and maybe RJ Hunter. Maybe the 2015 draft won't be the best ever, but we will really look back at it in a few years and realize how talent stacked it was.
offensively he seems to remind me of karl Malone. i'm not saying he's as physically imposing as karl or is on pace to become one of the greatest big men of all time. what I mean is that Malone often didn't dribble much to create his shot; he often outran opponents off the ball in transition, and in the half court, got good positioning off the ball first and rarely took more than 1 dribble before shooting. turner has a bit of that in his game.
+jonathan chung i remember; still doesn't take away their similarities, like in the low post; karl malone was known for often facing up and shooting without a dribble after getting a post entry pass. i strongly suggest you relook at some video of karl playing, and you'll see that he didn't just take very little dribbles because stockton was his pg.
Since you featured Myles Turner, it would be nice if you can also have Nikola Jokic as he and Myles seem to be going under the radar this year. They both have great potential and well-rounded game.
This was the year that revolutionized NBA big men since Dirk... There are so many bigs right now that are really strong, rebound well, play in the post, and can hit outside jumpers. I think they are gonna be the future of the NBA after the guard craze dies down.
Coach, yesterday I watched your breakdown about the "secrets in the post"... Watching this video now, I noticed that Turner use the HOP ON THE CATCH almost every time he receive the ball in the post! Good foundamentals... and, above all, I may not have been able to notice this without your videos. Great job Coach! ;)
When I saw him in Summer League I wasn't sure if he was legit bcos he looked amazing. But he's a beast, blocks shots, drains threes, mid range, can post up. He's gonna be great
I think he has the potential to be a superstar. Him KAT and Porzingis are molded like AD, big men that can roll or pop, block and shoot from distance. All three guys have a bright future imo.
I saw that before the draft and was surprised that everyone slept on him, along with Kevon Looney and Cam-Payne. He was nice in summer league; Orlando.
just heard about this guy when I watched highlights of a pacers game the other day, his name kept coming up, I had no idea who he was, but bballbreakdown to the rescue
I drafted him at the start of the season in fantasybball, unfortunately got injured, but since the beginning I believed in this guys talent. I only have him in 2 out of my 8 leagues, didn't get him in others because Mahinmi had inconsistent nagging injuries. Sure it does help I have Draymond, Harden, DJ and him in one league at the same time, and he does not hurt you in roto league as well.
Reminds me a little of Ewing, just smaller and more agile. Great video. He's been on my spotlight since before he left. I mean, he's an efficient STARTING rookie for Coach Vogel. Has to be doing something right.
This dude was the top hs prospect at one point. He was compared to the likes of Lamarcus Aldridge + shot blocking threat. Unfortunately he fell due to his awkward jogging ( still apparent) that red flagged most if not all scouts heading into college thinking he was incapable of matching up with nba athletes
I didn't like him for some reason and thought he was going to be a bust but honestly great pick up for the Pacers. I hope his career goes great he's looking like a real stud.
I've been waiting for him all this time to get some minutes or Mahimi. Was hoping the Hawks would draft him since they had the Nets pick but then the Nets somehow started winning games out of nowhere.
do you like a patrick ewing comparison coach? traditional bigman with back to the basket skills, solid midrange game, and really good defensive instincts
I know it's a weird thing to say, but he kinda moves like Pat too. He's got those long arms but he has a slender build that's filled out just like Pat. And he takes those long lumbering strides and always has his hands above his hips like Pat
I began noticing him before he came back from injury....only because Turner would kill my player in the mycareer mode, while I would have no trouble dealing with Demarcus cousins... 2K might've always knew he's good
I still can't believe that the Suns passed on him. A paint with Alex Len and Myles Turner would be terrific in a few years! Instead, why not getting another Guard (despite that I like Booker!)
hey coach, when I played ball in high school, I was always taught never to turn my back to the ball while rolling after setting a screen; essentially rolling the direction the ball handler went. How come it seems like Myles Turner as well as every single other NBA big man rolls the opposite way and turn their back to the ball handler? Looking for answer. Thanks!
I think that for the couple years to come, NBA will soon be returning to the post-dominated league that it once was with quality big man coming in from the draft.
Hey Coach, can you do a video like this on Devin Booker? As a Suns fan, he has been our lone bright spot and I believe he has a bright future in the NBA. I would love to see you breakdown his game.
Actually I heard people saying that he is too high for 11th pick on draft night, but it turned out that he is legit. Hornets should've take him or take celtic's four first round picks. Instead they took Kaminsky....
+SuplexGaming haha funny im a Pacers & Lakers fan. Byron Scott woulda crushed Myles Turner's spirit tho. Vogel and Pacers are really good with player development and building confidence. Did it with Lance, Paul George, Danny Granger, Hibbert Actully the previous coach b4 Vogel got fired bCoz he was killing the confidence of young player by criticizing them heavily in the media.
He was No1 back in high school for a reason but I think you re wrong about his athleticism, which bodes well for the future, but that hip position and hitch in his giddy up does not scream elite athlete! it is actually dangerous for his alignment and balance for the short term and he needs to be rested instead of fed more minutes for his long term health, he is going to put too much weight on a turned ankle and do serious damage. He is poor physically in my opinion and needs serious work but that will only improve his game, especially above the rim when he has all that power firing from a good set balance, I bet his vertical is mid 20's right now.
+James Lewis What the hell are you talking about? Miami's defense in their championship years was built on the back of Chris Bosh being tall enough to contest shots, big enough to play the post and quick enough for hard hedges on the perimeter.
![HIWWHEE | OHM [Official MV]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/OJJLtTLqLag/mqdefault.jpg)
nothing I appreciate more than a big man that can shoot mid range/post. I have faith in this guy
me 2
+doctor Bnasty Since the summer league I always told my friends he was going to be the steal of the draft
Is this the best big man draft ever? Towns, Okafor, Porzinigis, WCS and Turner. The future is in good hands
Jalil isnt good tho
jokic>wcs
It just might be who knows.
+MarcusTv KAT is ridiculous.
Clutch7 he was drafted in 2014 though which is why i didn't mention him but he is still a rookie and definitely belongs with those guys
these big guys can play. i think this draft will be one of the best when we look back
I agree.
+BBALLBREAKDOWN Turner is ugly as hell. Looks like a giant bird. Glad he can ball though!
+rasenganb41 Aside from towns and porzingis who imho will be (super?) stars. this draft possesses a really solid top10 picks, hezonja being the only one who didn't get consistent minutes, really good late lottery picks in Turner, Lyles and Booker, and also a lot of potential steals in Portis, Jefferson and maybe RJ Hunter.

+GiulioCox Jahliiiiiil
Sorry i included him in the "very solid top 10" hahaha
This guy is gonna be a star, definitely my favorite big man of the 2015 draft
A video with no beginning ads. What is this? A high quality video by itself. NIICEEEE.
offensively he seems to remind me of karl Malone. i'm not saying he's as physically imposing as karl or is on pace to become one of the greatest big men of all time.

+ReCharredSigh remember malone had stockton making those passes too
+jonathan chung i remember; still doesn't take away their similarities, like in the low post; karl malone was known for often facing up and shooting without a dribble after getting a post entry pass. i strongly suggest you relook at some video of karl playing, and you'll see that he didn't just take very little dribbles because stockton was his pg.

I've been following this player since Larry Legend drafted him. Good to see him playing well and getting the recognition!
3:41 good to see the fans in Phoenix
+Dan The man LMAO
+Dan The man Good lord they probably sell tickets for pocket change
Great breakdown
Thanks!
+michaelperez36 agreed
Had this guy as my sleeper in the draft, glad to see him doing well.
Coach, yesterday I watched your breakdown about the "secrets in the post"... Watching this video now, I noticed that Turner use the HOP ON THE CATCH almost every time he receive the ball in the post! Good foundamentals... and, above all, I may not have been able to notice this without your videos. Great job Coach! ;)
This dude is taking me to the fantasy finals
I've got him and Cousins, I'm beasting right now
+Brandon Standifer I feel ya, dude. I got Drummond.
+CloudIXLiobird I got Myles Whiteside Bosh and Draymond
great analysis of a great nba talent. thanks for the video
Title choice for the video confused me. Laughed a good 5 minutes after the song played and explained everything! Keep up the good work man.
This draft class was actually really good, at least compered to last years!
I'm glad that coach nick saw what i saw with this player
No more ADs!! thanks coach nick
When I saw him in Summer League I wasn't sure if he was legit bcos he looked amazing.
But he's a beast, blocks shots, drains threes, mid range, can post up. He's gonna be great
He's been balling since Summer League. Glad he's getting in some production
I think he has the potential to be a superstar. Him KAT and Porzingis are molded like AD, big men that can roll or pop, block and shoot from distance. All three guys have a bright future imo.
Thanks for the breakdown coach nick! Looking forward to big things for Myles Turner, hook 'em!
Coach I hope that these guys can promote and bring Back that back to the basket game
Nice analysis! He's now on my radar.
classic post great job coach nick
an even better video, keep up the great work.
Now lets hope The Who don't sue you
Shhhhhh
I saw that before the draft and was surprised that everyone slept on him, along with Kevon Looney and Cam-Payne. He was nice in summer league; Orlando.
Great quick video coach!
That block he put on lebron last year was fire
That's a good looking shooting form and flow too!
just heard about this guy when I watched highlights of a pacers game the other day, his name kept coming up, I had no idea who he was, but bballbreakdown to the rescue
Excellent vid Coach
Can you breakdown Justise Winslow and his sky high potential,as a Heat fan i would love to see that
Heat Nation!
DEVIN BOOKER video please!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!~!
+Something Seems Off PLEAAASE
always knew he was special from watching summer league highlights
he has a very clean and smooth game
he came to our high school today cause he went there.
I drafted him at the start of the season in fantasybball, unfortunately got injured, but since the beginning I believed in this guys talent. I only have him in 2 out of my 8 leagues, didn't get him in others because Mahinmi had inconsistent nagging injuries. Sure it does help I have Draymond, Harden, DJ and him in one league at the same time, and he does not hurt you in roto league as well.
I saw this potential before and he just knows the game
Pacers lineup for 2016 season: Jeff Teague, Monta Ellis, PG, Thad Young, Myles Turner /w Al Jeff off the bench. Scary!
Good pun at the end!
how lucky are we to hv so many skilled big men in this draft~
wow what a promising young player!! has a complete PF game without having to shoot 3s as well as center attributes
Reminds me a little of Ewing, just smaller and more agile. Great video. He's been on my spotlight since before he left. I mean, he's an efficient STARTING rookie for Coach Vogel. Has to be doing something right.
So glad hes on my Fantasy Team..
This dude was the top hs prospect at one point. He was compared to the likes of Lamarcus Aldridge + shot blocking threat. Unfortunately he fell due to his awkward jogging ( still apparent) that red flagged most if not all scouts heading into college thinking he was incapable of matching up with nba athletes
Great one coach
Haha, that DeAndre Jordan hop @ 03:11.
Could you do a breakdown of the top ten rookies and see how they have done/ how they have impacted their teams?
He's also a smart person off the court, so that can help build his reputation as an established Professional NBA player.
That block on LeQueen got him on peoples' radars
i liked him since the summer league
I knew this guy is gonna be something.
that jumper looks BEAU-TI-FUL!
I didn't like him for some reason and thought he was going to be a bust but honestly great pick up for the Pacers. I hope his career goes great he's looking like a real stud.
Imagine him in Houston 🚀
Richie Hernandez NEVER
I've been waiting for him all this time to get some minutes or Mahimi. Was hoping the Hawks would draft him since they had the Nets pick but then the Nets somehow started winning games out of nowhere.
Lmao that ending
do you like a patrick ewing comparison coach? traditional bigman with back to the basket skills, solid midrange game, and really good defensive instincts
I know it's a weird thing to say, but he kinda moves like Pat too. He's got those long arms but he has a slender build that's filled out just like Pat. And he takes those long lumbering strides and always has his hands above his hips like Pat
Yeah, he's not as big, but I see similarities for sure.
He wasn't on my radar but he is now
My man Kobe had an amazing game last night! What do you think coach?
I began noticing him before he came back from injury....only because Turner would kill my player in the mycareer mode, while I would have no trouble dealing with Demarcus cousins... 2K might've always knew he's good
I still can't believe that the Suns passed on him. A paint with Alex Len and Myles Turner would be terrific in a few years! Instead, why not getting another Guard (despite that I like Booker!)

How come it seems like Myles Turner as well as every single other NBA big man rolls the opposite way and turn their back to the ball handler? Looking for answer. Thanks!
His jumper is so cash, love the arch on his shot, nothing but net
I think that for the couple years to come, NBA will soon be returning to the post-dominated league that it once was with quality big man coming in from the draft.
Problem is those big guys play the perimeter more than the post!
Coach I love this video! You should consider featuring Nikola Jokic as well.
Since we're almost halfway through the season would you mind giving an analysis on how Fred Hoiberg is doing with the Chicago Bulls?
Great breakdown! 3:50 isn't he camping in the paint for a real long time?
Hey Coach, can you do a video like this on Devin Booker? As a Suns fan, he has been our lone bright spot and I believe he has a bright future in the NBA. I would love to see you breakdown his game.
You should do a Jokic video. Educate people about his talent.
can u do a breakdown on how the san miguel beermen beat alaska aces after being down 3-0
his jump shot is money
Nice Who reference there, coach :)
Dang coach. Looks like a good draft class
He and Bobby Portis are shockingly similar, scary actually how similar they actually are
I was thinking this too. Portis doesn't have his post up game.
+BBALLBREAKDOWN i thought the opposite, Portis has a nice post hook and face up game
The Pacers doesn't miss Roy Hibbert at all!!!!
As a pacer fan, i'm happy we got him instead of Frank kaminsky or Cameron Payne
He went to my school when he was in junior high.
Thank you. Cause you know Larry bird would've picked Kaminsky if he was there
+Kris Edwards Myles is much better in my opinion
Actually I heard people saying that he is too high for 11th pick on draft night, but it turned out that he is legit. Hornets should've take him or take celtic's four first round picks. Instead they took Kaminsky....
Can you do a breakdown on Russell Westbrook improvement in his role.
Great The Who reference!
Only thing that's suspect is his p & r coverage, other than that hes a future stud
+DickChappy isn't pick and roll coverage something young players typically struggle with? just a matter of experience I think
+DickChappy considering how he's never caught off in team defense, I think he will have that covered soon enough.
Can you do a breakdown on how good we are
Coach, you still thinking about doing a Larry Nance breakdown?
Yeah, I'm thinking about it...
i can see for myles and myles lmao 5:14
Kid reminds me of Bosh. Crazy how just a few years ago he didn't know how to run
breakdown kyle korver's shooting zlump
i swear b4 the draft they said he wasnt that athletic, but now he has explosive athletisism? wtf is going on
Yeahhhhh
As a Laker fan I translate the video into "Why those stupid Lakers drafted a guard instead of one these talented bigs"
+SuplexGaming haha funny im a Pacers & Lakers fan. Byron Scott woulda crushed Myles Turner's spirit tho. Vogel and Pacers are really good with player development and building confidence.
Did it with Lance, Paul George, Danny Granger, Hibbert
Actully the previous coach b4 Vogel got fired bCoz he was killing the confidence of young player by criticizing them heavily in the media.
now here's a surprise
He was No1 back in high school for a reason but I think you re wrong about his athleticism, which bodes well for the future, but that hip position and hitch in his giddy up does not scream elite athlete! it is actually dangerous for his alignment and balance for the short term and he needs to be rested instead of fed more minutes for his long term health, he is going to put too much weight on a turned ankle and do serious damage. He is poor physically in my opinion and needs serious work but that will only improve his game, especially above the rim when he has all that power firing from a good set balance, I bet his vertical is mid 20's right now.
Reminds me too much of Chris Bosh! I've been saying that.
Huh... That's interesting
+OJ Sarfo in other words where in the hell do you see him play like Chris Bosh? His defense alone is far better than Chris bosh's best defensive year.
+OJ Sarfo more like Aldridge
+James Lewis Bosh is a very solid defender what are you talking about
+James Lewis What the hell are you talking about? Miami's defense in their championship years was built on the back of Chris Bosh being tall enough to contest shots, big enough to play the post and quick enough for hard hedges on the perimeter.
THE NEXT TIM DUNCUN>!?!?!?
when you go to 60/50 fps camera?
Lamarcus aldridge anyone? thats who he reminds me of
+Mohsin Kamal Lemarcus with defense
Better than the oak all around but not as good big kat or the zinger. Those two have unique big man floor spacing skills and good defensive instincts
I feel like be could easily add the 3 Ball this summer.
What about Devin Booker doe?
He deserves one too!
+BBALLBREAKDOWN Oh and that's not to take away from Myles Turner. Man, this entire draft class has been incredible!
