Great stuff man! Always look forward to watching your vids, you know your stuff and really know all the little things about the game. Few vids I'd like to see (of course, you don't have to agree. Just suggestions. Rubio's defense (gets pretty overlooked. Unfortunate he's never played in a legit defensive system and thus hasnt been able to show all his potential. I think he should get more recognized playing under Thibs tho). Curry's gravity (how team's being so concerned with him leads to so much ball movement and wide open shots for his teammates). Diaw passing (no description necessary). Ginobili throwing it down/finishing in the lane (one of my fav players ever. People forget how athletic and amazing all-around he was in his prime). Khris Middleton defense (super underrated imo. He's a poor man's Klay Thompson). Again, keep up the good work! Can't wait to see what you have in store!
Your vids are awesome man! You should do a Some throwbacks tho like a Larry Bird premier passer or a Hakeem Olajuwon post up powerhouse ofc don't feel rushed Ik you get tons of request!
Oh trust me, I'd love to. It's just a matter of getting the clips and formatting for quality. If I can get good enough quality clips, then I can for sure work on it. I love watching Hakeem, McHale & Jordan postups wherever I can find them, and Larry is a supremely underrated passer even though we all know how good he was.
They already do. See the first two games of the Finals and notice that Cleveland was so busy chasing shooters that a quick dropoff pass (like KD throws here) got Ezeli and other such guys relatively big games. Also, I think it's more realistic to think that they'll use one (or both) of the Splash bros in terms of this action with KD, that way defenses won't know WHAT to do and who to stick with.
touché. I think green mainly just because of his playmaking ability off the catch, but I see what you are saying. imagine curry setting that screen and the opposing team switches the guard onto kd!
Yup. I always have at least 9 things going on at the same time, and it's a matter of just putting them together when they are ready. The KD playoff defense is almost there
Iverson Cut for a player like Kevin Durant is awesome 😄😄😄. Most NBA teams don't use Iverson Cut to catch & score like Lou Williams does, they use it as a decoy 😢😢😢.
They ran a few elevator plays for KD in OKC and it's easy to disguise because Donovan ran A LOT of horns, but yeah...it'll be fun to watch KD and Klay and Steph screen for each other. I do especially enjoy elevator action too.
He's going to shoot 55-57%FG like LeBron did in his last two years in Miami. He'll see alot of catch-and-shoot opportunities in GSW. By the way, your videos are awesome. I was wondering if you could do a "D-Wade postup powerhouse" compilation. Dude is amazingly underrated in the post.
Absolutely. That's actually the video I was going to have up last week but it was taken down almost immediately, so I'm working to get that re-done for a new upload.
For sure. I made one last year (including a whole video of just his lefty finishes), and when I finish working on the one for this past season, I will have it up.
KD sure loves shooting from the right side. thank you for uploading this!
KD so good at off ball movement that he moved all the way to the team that choked his team out.

BallinBoxer Just won Back-to-back MVP Finals awards too & probably saying F/U haters that say I ruined NBA competitive balance 😄😄😄.

Great vid
KD is the master of Pin Down screen cutting. He is even better than Klay Thompson, his height of 6'11 gives him the advantage over Klay Thompson.

first to appreciate the videp
Classic
This was him at a 2 or a 3?
Man if the Warriors instil that pin down action that he is doing here....it will literally be unstoppable because those adams rolls become green 3's
They already do.

touché. I think green mainly just because of his playmaking ability off the catch, but I see what you are saying. imagine curry setting that screen and the opposing team switches the guard onto kd!
could you do Klay Thompson pin downs
Evin, are you still going to be making a Kevin Durant Lockdown Playoffs Version? Would be great if you are still working on it!
Yup. I always have at least 9 things going on at the same time, and it's a matter of just putting them together when they are ready. The KD playoff defense is almost there
Could you do a Klay Thompson flare screen compilation (idk if that's the proper word for it)
I will definitely be doing a Klay off ball movement video, so you'll see some Flare action there for sure.
Iverson Cut for a player like Kevin Durant is awesome 😄😄😄.
Most NBA teams don't use Iverson Cut to catch & score like Lou Williams does, they use it as a decoy 😢😢😢.
you think kevin durant coming off of pindowns in okc was crazy, wait til steve kerr calls the elevator doors play for kd...
They ran a few elevator plays for KD in OKC and it's easy to disguise because Donovan ran A LOT of horns, but yeah...it'll be fun to watch KD and Klay and Steph screen for each other. I do especially enjoy elevator action too.
like I said perfect fit for the warriors lol
OKC failed to maximise his scoring potential
Good Man he's going to score at will lol
He's going to shoot 55-57%FG like LeBron did in his last two years in Miami. He'll see alot of catch-and-shoot opportunities in GSW.

Evin Gualberto Thank you so much, man. Keep up the great work. Your videos open up different but important elements of basketball.
Steve Kerr is that you?
Dameatis Smalls Lol.
Can you do a Kyrie video? He really can finish
For sure. I made one last year (including a whole video of just his lefty finishes), and when I finish working on the one for this past season, I will have it up.
Evin Gualberto I saw that video good job man.
So I will wait on the Kyrie video 😁
I wanted to write this also but then I saw ur comment lol.Kyrie's ability to finish around the rim is seriously insane.
Kevin Durant would Still be in OKC if Ibaka would have never plateaued and learned how to playmake for the team
Well he’s a big man in the 2010’s era so what do you expect?
2:11 kobe not giving a fk
and ppl said Westbrook didn't pass enough
He had to learn to play off ball mire cuz of westbrook ball dominance
