The guy who made the layup should have gotten the hundred bucks. In basketball once your shot is up an hits the backboard it counts if the buzzer goes off or even if a defender blocks it (goaltending). So there's no reason for that not to count.

It’s only 10 feet longer at most and Nick probably measured this one to see if it’s 94 feet considering he set up a line across it lol, otherwise it defeats the purpose of the challenge.

@@JA-jx1hk Still a longer distance. And that’s a bit of a reach, I’m just respecting what the guy has done consistently over 20 years at 6’9. We live in a universe without superheroes. These kind of people are the closest thing we’ve got to that
@@JA-jx1hk Athlete worship IS pathetic. I blasted a bunch of Bo Jackson worshippers here on TH-cam.

Dope concept but no way should you be letting them take jumpers when its suppose to be Rim to Rim. Also, pretty lame that bro made a lay up but somehow still lost becauxe the ball wasnt in the hoop, which is even dumber
What I found amazing about this video was that none of the people watching came up w/ a strategy based upon the experiences of the previous competitors. Get it down the court as fast as possible, and hit a lay up, where your target is the glass just a few inches above the rim, so it gets into the basket as quickly as possible.
@@alexiecierra That's the whole point approaching this w/ critical thought. If you're standing there watching this in real-time, you can clearly see why everyone is failing. You then formulate a plan of action to avoid that.
The first video I've watched of yours and one thing I must say is that you are a marketing genius. I love how you promoted your app whilst allowing the video to play, making it impossible to skip without missing footage from the video.
Nick, I have been watching your videos since COVID. I am now 17, I live in Canada. And one day I will make it to one of your track specials. (I'm a 100m - 200m sprinter). Love your content man. Keep it up

I believe that our education system is well supported and dependable, but only cus I have lived here my entire life. it all depends on the location. hope that helps
@@MattPawlowski it seems like simply running that distance in that time is very doable, but to do it while dribbling and having to score a basket is a different ballgame, also need to factor in having to dribble through defenders without traveling or turning the ball over
@@Netsfan24 you're right, but LeBron can dribble 94 feet practically as fast as he can run it, as can any high level dribbler. The 4.4 timer for the video was generous to the competitors or else it would've taken a pro guard with speed or a track star who could make a lucky layup going too fast to finesse it.
Young Cavs LeBron was the fastest basketball player I've ever seen in my lifetime. Go watch his highlights from 2007-2010 that was maybe the most athletic human ever
Um I hate to break it to yall but Lebron did a 4.4 on an Nba court, the court they were at is not a full Nba court so he should’ve adjusted the time with the smaller court to probably a 4.0 flat or even a 3.9 because a lot of the contestants were beating the time mark because of the court actually being smaller
@@MS-tz1ml Creepy because you do not appreciate modern day NBA superstars. MJ fans are just stuck with old memories. I get it but can you just appreciate what he brings on the table.
@@NBA335 I do not mean to degrade Jordan, but the comparisons at this point depends on people nowadays. Just like in Football there is Messi camp and Ronaldo Camp.
That was dumb not giving that guy 100$ that actually did layup. It takes a second for ball to go from board to the inside of the rim. He hit that tbh. Nick sometimes has questionable decisions.
@@aayanqasim2460 you are missing the point and being rude. what I was saying is he threw the ball and lebron was not already there, the time when ball flew from his hands to the hoop is something you cant measure and say: he got to the ball. Example, you wait from Bron and when he is close to you on 3pointer, you shoot the ball, while the ball is flying and going to the hoop, he gets to the hoop. The ball goes in. Do you count that as in or out?
Don't call it rude. Stop being overly sensitive. A loss is a loss. His attempt was impressive. But the rules are the rules. Nick said the ball has to be out of the hoop before LeBron crosses.@@kraljina123
LeBron is the greatest basketball player of all time Micheal Jordan: hold my multiple awards and all time records 6x NBA championships vs 4x for Lebron 6x NBA finals MVP VS 4x for lebron 5x NBA most valuable player vs 4x for lebron

Nah
He’s not going against a shot clock, he’s going against LeBron’s speed.

@@doszapatos8182 what does speed have to do with whether you lay it up or dunk it?

They have potential in the construction industry 💀

@@GoatedGoose1 good thing ima b a construction manager then
Bro even I can make a layup lol
Bad word is bad to say
The best technic was the one from the first guy. Just throw the ball all the way ahead, pick it up and dunk it.

not exactly fair, but ig no one is as athletic as Lebron so sure 😂

Can u pls do more of those vids I love the channel keep it up can u make a series about this video please thank you
The pressure when he shouts at them cracks them every time
I feel like the nba court is bigger than the park so Lebron is even faster than he’s programmed here
its much bigger
Also that's with other full-grown NBA players in his way, playing defense. Without them he'd be much faster
“Not very athletic” 😆

The adding of the "LeBron James Vine" made this video. One of the greatest Vine's of all time.

When nick symonds isn’t faster than the goat 😮
They can’t hoop , this is hard to watch
Probably why he chose them

All of those shots was pure rim
I am competing in gymnastics
Bro how are these bois absolutely bricking everything
I loved the stair video keep bringing in different people with different expertise and have them compete like that time
I LOVE THIS CHANNEL SO MUCH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I LOVE HOW IT PAYS TO BE FIT
ABSOLUTELY NO ONE CAN PLAY IN OREGON LOL
This looks like SNL "Basketball Scene". Some of those guys would fit right into skit without any editing. They are that natural at passing the rock.
how does this affect Lebron's legacy?
flopping legacy?
Ur the best youtuber bro always come with the best challenges i hope i’ll be able to participate in one of them one day keep up g
Love Nick's videos. He's a great host. And excellent camera work by the video guy.
thank you!!
Doing a 4.4 with a basketball is nuts
A basketball court is only 30 yards. In case you were thinking that it was also 40 like the NFL combine
That's not even his fastest time, its even more impressive in game with defenders.

not rly
do mbappe
Tell me how I know that Nick Symmonds watches 'Raised by Wolves.'
Nice as always❤…plz do weightlifting snatch and jerk lift( i used to enjoy doing this sports)
4.4 is crazy and plus it is on an nba court which is bigger than a park’s court
Dang, it’s crazy how they all hit the hoop at 4.421 seconds
True
Nick will u make another season of nick symmonds track classic?? that would be great
Also the obstacle course video was very entertaining
Definitely the greatest of all time not just in speed. LeBron basically has all the gifts as a Basketball specimen in a lab. 💥

These kids were closer at half court shots than lay ups LOL
its all luck with the way they were chucking it 🤣ppl cant handle the pressure, so chucking that half court seems easier
being in motion/running for your life really fucks up your shot if you dont know that you really need to do a brake check

Another fun video! Just goes to show that it isn't easy to shoot under pressure like that.
the pressure makes it wayyyyy tougher
Just saw the intro - but I feel like the best bet would be dribble a bit then shoot a long three?
Is there a Nick Symmonds track classic this year
Im surprised how many people didn’t know how to make a layup 😮
The moment and pressure
These vids are crazy fun.
Where do you find these guys🤣🤣 it’s like they’ve never played basketball before
Nick, when will you hold proportional strength challenges instead of absolute strength challenges?
soon!
Ahh nick if you doing a basketball video you should do basketball rules if the ball leaves your hand before the time it should count
Bro where is this all these dudes are definitely not hoopers
I got some advice throw the the ball far then run to it then layup 👍🏾
Well LeBron is good, but I don't think the Greatest player of all time
That’s Why he Said “ARGUABLY”
To bad he actually is
I think the guy who made it after time should have been paid. The ball was out of his hands in time, so that would be like a buzzer beater.
2:32 I mean it’d be a goaltend if he blocked it there.
Beat hicham el guerrouj’s mile pace for 100 metres is a good suggestion
I just ran a 6 min 24 sec mile age 32 is that good? been working out for 7 months after getting sober in october 2022
Love ur videos, but why is the timer always 4.421?
