Name some NBA teams that could use Mike James on their roster
The hornets
Suns
rockets backup pg
Swish Cultures suns or back up point guard for the rockets
Clippers
I think people who talk poorly about guys who end up out of the NBA forget how good professional athletes are!
exactly, theres alot guys out there same and as these guys and better that cant get a spot of nba team
Many of these people have the potential to be NBA players. Boston's Brad Wanamaker has been in Europe for many years before he returns to USA and prove he belongs...
@@Edgaros patrick beverley
Man Euroleague is literally the 2nd best basketball league in the world, 10 times better than college , 5 times better than the D league. Literally multiple NBA level hoopers in Euroleague, Mike James is one of them, dude was averaging over 20 a game for the suns for half a season till he went back to Euroleague.
David Chandler it’s not that they can’t get a spot. It’s that they don’t want to sit on an nba bench in the prime of their career.
They all look UNGUARDABLE to me
bcause they cut out missed shots
yes hardly guardable
bro they are all pros overseas
What do you except? If you have that good jumper shot you're practically ungurdable to normal professional players. Only NBA players can stop them.
@@andrrrrrray nah I've watched uncut videos of some of these dudes that are pros and they're fucking insanely good. no one realizes just how good pros are. those videos where LeBron goes against other good players in open runs and shit he looks superhuman
Who’s here after mike James is playing well for the championship favorites
Me ✌🏻
Meeeee
Yoo
@@crispycream208 for the nets
@@crispycream208 nah for the jets
Mike James is inspirational. He went from Juco to D1, gets in the NBA, leaves the NBA, kills in the Euro league for a few years, then gets back in the NBA with a couple of 10-day contracts to a long-term contract for a championship contender. The grind and drive he has is amazing. I hope the Nets get the chip
Funny cuz he was speaking on KD and Harden and now he plays with both of them
He knows what it takes to have chips.. He’s gonna be a Playoffs’ Rondo typa player for the Nets in playoff runs !!
just signed for the rest of the season, he has to go back to the Euroleague after this season
@@trinoejindu1790 he doesn’t have to go back now since Cska basically doesn’t want him anymore, so he’s going to stay in the nba now
Kills what ?the euroleague ?never won a title ,never played in final four ,every team he played not even 1 coach wanted him on board.long term contract ?his contract is until the end of the season .and he only plays only when Kyrie or James are missing .
Now these are real hoopers in the gym
They’re pros. There’s a difference between hoopers and pro ballers.
these are actually real hoopers bruh wym those are pros man
What are you talking about bro
@@dannystillschooling7768 they are hoopers. Pros think their too good to be hoopers cause they get paid
@@sangeyasha5435 so what. They all can ball lol
This has to be the cleanest court I've ever seen/heard.
wish i could hoop somewhere like this.....i live in Chicago and gotta settle for the YMCA or Salvation Army....and the gyms still arent open cuz of Covid
Never disrespect a professional basketball player on any level - what collection of beasts!
facts, don’t matter if they even hoop professionally tbh. as long as they have self respect and heart they gon show it in their game
Unless they are over 6 9 then it's advantage they in there cause they big . They don't got skills like this dude
He was a starter for the suns lol
@@Brsrafalyou don’t hoop.
This doesnt rly apply to him bc hes not a bum on court he hit these tuff shots in real games
If anyone has ever wondered how crazy difficult it is to make it onto an NBA roster consider this: Mike James had to claw and fight his way just to be on the bench of the Brooklyn Nets. Unbelievably skilled player, but at his height it's very difficult to get your shot off on NBA defenders. Unbelievable player. Wish him the best.
He has decent size/athleticism for his position but him scoring on an nba level was never a question. Don’t forget there are politics to the NBA guys that are considered “instant offense” “microwave scorers “ gets bad rep teams rather go for low risk-low reward players but I still agree with most of your points
@@stevenwhiters8928 that's why he basically scores with ease now in the nba and takes on players no problem .
There are many factors for not making the nba even if the skill is there
Why you actin like he wasn't a starter lol he didn't claw lol you dragging it
He was a starter bro for the suns wtf is u talking bout lol
See thats where the issue is, the scouts in the USA are dimensions focused and stat focused, mainly looking into athleticism as the criteria on whether or not someone will be great. Look at Jokic for instance. If he was recruited by standard american scouts he would have never been able to show the world what he is capable of. He was picked up by a Serbian scout who saw potential in him through a newspaper article. Most NBA teams passed on him thinking he would be nothing, but look at him now. Basketball is more than wingspan, height and speed. Humans are inteligent beings, capable of adapting and utlizing their own advantages and skills that others dont have. Its insane thinking that Mike James with such skill sets has to ride the bench or have to fight to get to the league.
He’s always been underrated!
Hell nah he ain't underrated... the man is consider a top 3 player in Europe...he ain't underrated yall just clueless
@Smith Will yeah u right , just a guy with a scoring tittle in Europe and multiple times champion in the leagues he has played in
U say 'always' like you've known him for 10 years💀
@@g.s.petropoulos6101 With due respect to European basketball, it's a completely different class of athleticism you're up against in the NBA. Very hard to make the transition. Certain shots and moves that work in Eruoleague straight up get shut down in the NBA. Look at his shooting % on the Nets vs Europe. Don't get me wrong, love that he's on the Nets, and hope he has a lot of success. He's a fun player to watch.

He can play
Man that guy in those detroit pistons colors is playing like kris middleton, insane and mostly swish
Andrew Andrews, great for university of Washington!
yed
He could easily provide some sharp shooting off the bench in the NBA
Thats Gerald Henderson aint ?
@@connormeadows5925 yo, dude averaged 20 in college😂
The audio you guys got on the 1's is crazy, from the shoes bending to ball swishing
Right! I was like damn those kicks are loud as hell 😅🤣🤣
man when I heard those shoes sound that's when I know audio is detail as fuck
Most pick-up players think they’re good..
Until they play the pros!
Lmao so? Most dudes who play pickup have jobs, let people have confidence in themselves
@C A P why you gotta put money down to have confidence?
@@Harmeechie to see how much confidence you have.
@@terrellbartley8776 if you have real confidence you don’t need to put money up, who you tryna reassure? I’m not even disagreeing, but bro talkin bout put money down if you got confidence, nobody was even talkin bout money
@@Harmeechie I really don't care. I just gave you an answer. That's all.
We need more mike James workouts
The sound of swishes in this gym is so satisfying
I remember mike playin for panathinaikos..man he was just a beast
The 12th man on an NBA roster could come to any open gym in America and destroy. This dude should definitely be in the league. Glad to see he’s still getting to it overseas.
He is in the League now
of course, clowns speaking like they could get D1 scholarships.
Who the bald guy?!
He average 20 on the suns lol he wasn't no 12th man lol
@@ceionteperry4764
Can’t read huh?
The rim has a mic
Mike James shot selection in this is so good. He's the one using this session to get back to the league.
this man a whole 2k build
He’s filthy and crafty , and tough I hope he sticks in the league I like his style
To have friends like this making eachother better is what its about
Bro in the black tee couldn’t get a stop to save his life 😂😂😂
Bruh was an EASY bucket... and they all knew it 😅
@@myloki22 yea he must be really young or something.. dude lookin like a toddler out there 😂 chicken soup for the soul lol
For real dude stayed getting cooked
Nah he had solid defense some plays like he would make the nigga pick the ball up but then they would just FaceTime him with a circus shot 🤣🤣
Every time he played great D they still made it😂
Guy in the black was getting fried
Yea he flat footed as hell
He didn't get not one stop 🤦🏾♂️
I think he is the trainers assist, he didn't even have ball kicks on
Joshua spence good. Would have been worst
bodegaboys you talkin like he can’t guard you
Dude has the legs of a middle linebacker! Strong game, very very good player...SOLID!!
I had watch this a while ago and then seen him on the nets and had to come back. I’m happy for this guy.
Mike 1v1 kyrie would be just mad creativity on one court 👏to watch the moves they do would be so nice
Kyrie a different breed
@@MRoss623 hell yea🤣🤣 especially in 1s
All good players have strong looking legs from quads to calf you have to focus on them leg muscles before your ready to put them moves together thats when your gunna be unguardable
Klarenxe Blood not all good players
Kevin Durant is disagree
@Daniel Mondesir he was pretty weak when he was a rookie, but still was a really good player.
Na not really
This comment be sus.
Never make fun of the 15th man on the bench! These guys put in work!
He isn't a 15 man he was a starter
12:25 that must be a good way to blow off steam after someone makes you angry
I come back to this video every now and then and still amazed by the way the ball goes through the hoop. This was a Covid-19 classic during the shutdowns
He's in a gray area for the NBA. Most teams are looking for a point guard that is a facilitator, so talented point guards that are pure scorers get pushed out (think Jimmer Fredette). His skillset is more like a shooting guard but he's 6'1".
He’s been a beast for a while🔥✊🏾
Probably some of the best 1v1s I’ve seen… nasty ish out there
That spin 3 pointer was sick
Everyone in this needs a contract 😭
Who the bald guy
all right these guys would destroy the other youtube so called ballers, man these guys are big and can score. This was pretty impressive and hard to believe NBA guys are still even a lot better.
love mike james. glad he is finally play good minutes on a good team
The new sneakers being broken as well as the court floor noises are relaxing to hear. Like basketball ASMR
Mike James needs to be on a NBA roster, boy is cold blooded!
Nets
Αφού είναι παλαβός ρεε παιχτουρα τζειμς έλα και πάλι στη παναθα να τρελαθουμε ☘️☘️
6:10 That shit was dirty, man quick.
Got introduced to Mike years back at the Seattle pro am. First thing I said “who’s this guy with the crazy hops?”
CONGRATS to MJ for landing with the Nets!
Man, would love to see him and Shane Larkin from Efes Pilsen go at it .. that would be dope
yeah,i am from turkey and shane is ballin in here
Shane can't guard this man. He ain't that great player.
@@pixytorres7117 I would say Larkin is better in a basketaball game. On the other hand , Mike is better in 1 vs 1
This vid shows the skill level of some of these players, James isn’t even on a roster and yet he’s still REALLY good. Crazy
Mike James is an on court killer!
Also, I thought he was wearing a Cartman (SouthPark) shirt until I looked closer
I‘ve seen him playing against Alba Berlin. He is amazing.
Why is everybody switching pivots like this 🤣🤣
cause the refs dont call it...
I know. You play with your friends and everyone will call that travel
@@AlbertoGonzalez-px5qw actually try it and find out, you may be surprised!
right. alot of travelling
Euro league different
I want nothing but his workouts because dude cold. He got it. It can help me work on my shit ya feel me 🤷🏾♂️
My man Mike is walking everywhere and throwing the ball out to the side and running to it. That’s a walk too.
Man these 1on1 are soooo tuf. Thats some grown men out here.
Man playing in Concords, DEMON
Mike james and shane larkin are shredding the euro league . They ate so damn good
Look at him man....so inspirational...otw to be a NBA champ
The sound of that splash!
The Lakers could use him to give them someone else that can create for others and himself off the bounce. I just want to see one of his crazy floaters on national tv
No sir Quinn cook don’t play cuz he’s a defensive liability mike james is 3 inches shorter
STUDY THE GAME they’re both 6’1?
Watch CSKA games, he's crazy
@@studythegame9203 bro they’re both the same height and defense is just effort look at Pat Bev he the same height too that’s the main reason he’s still in the league.
Bro DJO used to play for Lakers!
They look like good players! Keep up the work lads!
Always knew mike was a savage. Dudes a killah
bro at 5:37 dude sound like he got the squeaky boot on from spongebob wth 😂😂😂
Jordan 10s are hella squeaky
came here after grant from panathinaikos dint let him score a single point in the halftime ;)
Anybody else notice the small travels they made when they caught the ball?😂
Aye this was a litt video tho
Ayo.. them Brothas can ball!! 🔥🔥💯💯
Here after the nets game?
Mike james and Darius johnson odom are two of my favorite players
This guy proved how tough Euroleague is. Put some respect in Euroleague's name.
9:47 Casually travels
tough for the guy with the headband, he playing in running shoes
“Against them” “bet” 😂😂💀 bro knew it was demon time
The sound of the dribbles, shoes, ball hitting the hands and the net are oddly satisfying
Knew he was tuff and about it when i seen him play on frank nittys drew league team 💯💯
He’s better than Frank to me
Patrick Poole overall yes i agree! But the reason the Suns cut mike james was because they felt he had the ball in his hands too long! Obviously frank never made the league. They are both just special gifted scorers tho
I don’t say this often but this guy needs to be in the league ASAP
Jack Hughes he was with the suns summer league team for 2 to 3 years and then was a starter for them when they had injures
Been following him when he played in Europe, was always surprised why no NBA team recruited him in the first place. I wanted to see him play in Serbia so bad but guess his cards dealt him better luck 😀
That just goes to show you how good ya gotta be. Mike James been good.
he has 2 of the greatest to play's name in his name. ofc hes gonna be good
Damn🤝🏻
I saw film of him playing i overseas. He can ball
The way they can get to space and pull their shot is unbelievable
Blue/Red shorts' game is NOICE also!
Bald head dude didn’t miss!
Yo this guy 🔥🔥
My new fav player 🙌
That low hook shoot gonna have kids trying to copy 👀🤯
It’s one thing to have that elite skill many professionals across the world have but they NBA provides elite athleticism+size that can’t be matched
Did they also put a mic in the shoes 😂
Obviously a joke, unless it is actually true
And on the rim lol
Lol 😆
Lol, was thinkin that to
It's the Jordans, I have the same pair and the extra leather on top makes that sound.
Suns should of kept him
Facts 🏀🏀💯
Should have! YES
Bro all of these players are so skilled, damn
Best ones ive seen in a min
They talking about kd and harden then he teamates with them months later
Andrew andrews,smoothest player i've ever seen in Turkish League.
which guy was that
@@davidchandler6885 the guy on defense in thumbnail
Ol buddy in the grey T had game and springs
Does the rim have a mic or what mic you guys using cause that audio is fire
1:40 dude was speaking it into existence. He knew he was gonna end up playing with kd lol
damn these monsters made 3s like cheese.
that net sound so satisfying to me ong. 😮💨
From the viewers perspective: The ball handlers joint maneuverability moves in a fluid reversed triangular motion during a time when metacarpal phalanges force ball movement from right to left to enable the explosive spin kinetics between both sets of the Teres major, Teres minor, infraspinatus. The humerus, the scapula, the serratus and external oblique lliac crest insertion cradles these weapons seamlessly allowing the transfer of all weight from vastus Lateralus through the left patella from the right without hesitation. Both the tibia and the fibula show no signs of weakness during their explosiveness resulting in what will be a spin and step back maneuver all of which would be impossible without a heighten sensitivity to equal weight distribution through the lumbar and thoracic sections of a healthy spine. 😁
lmao preach brotha
@@eonbeats word ☝
bro like this is insane they out here swishing
HOUSE need to react to him
They did
Saw him get a couple shots up during a random nets game and you could just tell he was nice nice.
There shots are butter almost damn near everytime
There was a whole lot of traveling in this vid y’all not even watching there feet
9:47 The first clear travel I saw.
Javier Delgado 5:40
True!!
bro. . .this is preparation for the NBA
Yeah i was thinking about the travels too. Everyone commented like he is so good bla bla bla
