Attention to Detail: Chris Lykes 🔬 // Undersized Guards

  • Опубліковано 8 кві 2020
  • I don't think the majority of hoopers understand what it takes to be an elite college or pro player when you're under 6-foot, let alone under 5'10". Chris has been doing his thing since high school, so it was only right I broke his game down under the microscope. If you're an undersized guard watching this video, know that all of these qualities take a TON of work and experience, but most of them can be added to the bag...

    Lykes is super athletic! His bounce is well above 45 inches. Not saying that’s everything, but it definitely helps out a lot. His wing span is above average for his height, plus he can also palm the ball. Lykes is built to be one of the better smaller players out there, if not the best.

  • @Blank100k
    @Blank100k 2 роки тому +3

    something that I really love about him especially as a small guard (5'5) myself is how fast he plays, he constantly forces the defense to try and predict what he's going to do. Its also really interesting because it looks like he reads the defenses direction the second they start moving and then he counters.

      @jontemccants 4 роки тому +4

      In the same sense most tall players have a hard time guarding short players. Look at Trae Young, Kemba Walker, Dame Lillard... hell even Chris Paul. Yes these guys are taller than Chris Lykes but compared to the other guards in the league their short. Btw just because google say somebody height is 6’3 or so doesn’t mean that is true because they said KD was 6’10 at one time which is the same height as Demarcus Cousins but standing next to him it’s obvious that KD is 7’0.

  • @davidhall4401
    @davidhall4401 3 роки тому +5

    I have been using this same off arm move as him to get to the cup. Most people think you can only use this stuff in the NBA, but it's being taught at all levels. And most players should have this in their arsenal because no one can just speed by opponents every time without being bumped. If you put your off arm into the defender's mid section it negates his ability to get back into the play. Always make contact with the defender first because it will knock him off balance, giving you a better chance to score. Whoever initiates contacts first wins the battle.

      Box out, swim moves (my favourite is on a free throw where right after they shoot it, I fake it one way and go the other), looking and knowing the shots and where they are likely to land (if you shoot left wing, if it's short, it's gonna be to the left, long will be to the right)(most of the time, there are times it will throw you off), tap outs can be a useful one (like Tyson Chandler), quick explosive jumps are helpful, and if you're shorter, get a running start if possible, but also note that is way better for offensive boards since some defenders will just naturally turn to look where the ball is and not put a body on a player). That's the most I got for boards. Hope it helps.

    People don’t get that in basketball,sure,height is a factor. But it’s not about the body,but the spirit. A tall and strong spirit in a small body it just as large,if not larger. I’ve played 6’6 and up players that have not skill or athleticism;Can’t dunk. Because they don’t know how to use their size. I’m just shy of 6’2,but was mentally trained to play shorter before I started growing,so I still have the mindset of dribbling lower to the ground. Like mentioned in video,that’s harder for people to guard. Especially if you’re quick.
