yeah and then next game he goes 2-10 then the game after that he’ll go 12-17 against the dpoy. if it wasn’t for dlo he’d be the streakiest player in the league
He wasn't. He actually led the team in pts in games AD and Bron sat out. Ham took him out the starting 5 just to put him back in less than 4 games later.
@xordus He wasn't overlooked. Darvin Ham is an idiot who never should've gotten a coaching job. Hell he shouldn't even be allowed to smell hardwood after his career
best thing about what the Lakers did this offseason is to lock this guy up to a very team friendly contract, he doesn't chew up salary space like Russ did previously
@@calebjr1312 I think signing Russ really screwed us. People saw the back lash he got and now they are scared to sign with the lakers. But he did deserve a lot of the criticism maybe not as much hate as he got but he did deserve some
@@penkima4923he’s starting now with the Lakers having a winning record. Yes that’s a weakness but who doesn’t have a hard time guarding talented players in the west.
As a Dubs fan, I’ve followed Austin’s career since his very first game in October of 2021 vs the Suns and every time I watch him he finds a way to take my breath away. I’m still of the mindset that now that he’s in year 4 and he has a guy in JJ who is going to get him the ball in better flows/sets, he’s now ready to take that next step into, Superstardom! ⭐️ People think he’s not athletic enough or capable of putting a team on his back like that but, they said the same thing about a guy on my team back in 2009. All these years later he still THAT GUY competing like he’s the best player in the world! Austin’s time to turn into That Guy is now! ❤
Love these breakdowns of those second- and third-tier players. The ways third and fourth options and non-max players find ways to be effective fascinates me. I think for AR’s game it’s awesome how intentional he is at shining as a result of Davis’ and Bron’s gravity. Wouldn’t be surprised to see Austin perform better in some of these areas come playoff time, getting paint touches, finishing with both hands, being efficient in pick and rolls. This lakers team has hope
His basketball IQ is just really really high and I feel like most people won't give him his flowers. He's an amazing basketball player and will be for some time.
ngl, all I'm seeing is beautiful offball movements and insane lebron passing in those highlights, but your points made are still correct. And I think that if you have the vision, that means you're that good of a passer, you just need to learn to not telegraph your passes.
Really great breakdown here. I would only argue that his bursts of speed and quick first step is upper echelon in the league. He's definitely not what you'd consider athletic but his ability to get out fast and stop on a dime has always impressed me. Not a lot of (non-superstar) guards in the league have a quicker first step than AR

Austin Reaves is a superstar and will continue to get better. AR and DK is the future of this team with Vando healthy championship 🤔. Lakers beat the champions last year in Boston because AR and Vando defense go back and watch that game. He need to keep attacking and Vando defense will elevate this team.
All he needs is a like 5 lbs that way he could bully his way to the rim more and draw more fouls and be be deadly with the screens and off ball actions.
Ar and DK are legit hoopers and im glad we got them and no one else. The best part is they're white so people sleep on them which makes them both x factors on any given night. They brought what we needed and thats IQ because lebron cant be the only player with a high IQ at his age. Anyone else notice how much trust lebron plays with since JJ showed up
Austin is the main problem because he can't guard any starting guards in this league and if JJ keeps him in the starting line up they are going absolutely nowhere unfortunately JJ is just as bad as coach scam and Rob and Jeannie should be called out for ruining this team her father must be rolling over in his grave 😎
Holy repetative exagerated clickbait title. If I see "changes everything" one more time I think I am going to change everything. Come on, we can do better than this as a society, can't we?
@@asxpsecret1506 get over them lol Seriously, go watch top defenders like Dru Holiday. They either get around the screen, or communicate the switch properly. It's hard, & one of the reasons why even guys like Damien Lilard are sub par back court defenders, but it's pretty much Mando for playing todays game at a high level.
jesus it seems like every play hes just cooking devin booker lmao
You love to see it
yeah and then next game he goes 2-10 then the game after that he’ll go 12-17 against the dpoy. if it wasn’t for dlo he’d be the streakiest player in the league
@@rickysoupuhm lol okay random ass hate with no knowledge
@@rickysouptbh he’s been pretty consistent this year atleast with his averages
@@rickysoupespecially these last 4 games
He has such a high offensive IQ. Reminds me a little bit of Manu (who was a better defender and more athletic)
i was tryna find a good comparison. this is it
Woah yeah now that you mention it, he’s kinda like a diet Manu
I do think austin is a more skilled offensive threat than manu was
Great comparison
Nice. Reaves needs more love esp after being overlooked last season
Nah he didn't do shi against the Nuggets respectfully. AD and Bron were basically 2 vs the entire Nuggets.
He wasn't. He actually led the team in pts in games AD and Bron sat out. Ham took him out the starting 5 just to put him back in less than 4 games later.
he was overlooked by his own coach! This dude should have been featured, instead they just treated him like another DLo. He's SO much better than DLo
@xordus He wasn't overlooked. Darvin Ham is an idiot who never should've gotten a coaching job. Hell he shouldn't even be allowed to smell hardwood after his career

U mean the offseason before?
@yeah that
Lol even with that deal, Lakers still struggling to sign players in the following offseason
@@calebjr1312 I think signing Russ really screwed us. People saw the back lash he got and now they are scared to sign with the lakers. But he did deserve a lot of the criticism maybe not as much hate as he got but he did deserve some
Underrated and highly skilled! His full potential is coming to fruition.
With his lack of defense he will never be playable as a starter.

100% dude. It's the coaching that's the real game-changer here.
Who are the dubs
@@GrantSweatshirt Pretty sure that’s Golden State
He is absolutely more than just a role player
Watched two laker games live! And both games reaves was balling!! His IQ super high made the right play every possession was very impresssed
Austin Reaves GREAT PG position this season 💪🔥💪
Reeves is the 3rd star. He'shim. Idk what people talking about saying lakers is looking for a 3rd star.
Way to break it down! No doubt, he’s a crucial piece for them to succeed.
Love watching Reeves so much, such beautiful play
JJ is noticing the strengths of reaves offensive game.
Behind the back pass to Cam was Left-Handed.
More of a football guy but love how u breakdown basketball
Glad you enjoy!
Great video man, lets go lakers!

Still convinced, once healthy, their best 5 will be
Pg LeBron
Sg AR
Fw Vando
Fw Hachimura
C AD
6/7/8 knecht/dlo/reddish
If they can replace Vando w another point of attack defender that can shoot even 35% they’ll be in a better position. D lo has got to go also
Knecht replaced vando
vando should play with the bench wit dlo
gained a sub for reaves
Future Coach Austin
Austin Reeves 2k layup package goated
Their movement is amazing this year!
5:05 this play from Reaves was disgusting
Student of the game. Crafty shooting guard
Reeves is a perfect 3rd option.
And to think Lakers fans wanted to trade this man.
*LeBron fans. Real Laker fans wanted to keep Reaves
@@TheHuskyK9facts, we even want to Trade Lebron when he still has a value😂
No we didn't. 🤦🏾♂️ we said DLo, Pat Bev, and Westbrick
@@flaulistv7811 yall just forget about the trade deadline when yall wanted dejounte murray? Im not talking about when we had westbrook and patbev on the team still
You bums are not Lakers fans @@h4kdogLima
that's HIMothy
Seeing Reaves cook superstars really makes me cackle 😆
Yo are you planning on doing any more streams like the one you did recently?
Lets hope his defense improves ....
Go white boy go
8:53 this is just beautiful 😍
7:18 He's got stats like Mario in sports games
This is such an amazing comparison! Lol
Austin Reaves is a superstar and will continue to get better. AR and DK is the future of this team with Vando healthy championship 🤔. Lakers beat the champions last year in Boston because AR and Vando defense go back and watch that game. He need to keep attacking and Vando defense will elevate this team.
Now if Vando can just stay healthy, the Lakers would be a dangerous team.
who's the coldest non european white boy in the league? It might me austin or herro ngl.
Grady Dick > Herro
@manz7860 dick is up there, but nah I got herro, he's cold bro.
We were all laughing at the clip of him and bron, now he’s picking it up and it’s 😮
Baby Jerry West in full effect. 😂
Love the video❤ can you make a video about micheal jordan?
💛💜💛💜
All he needs is a like 5 lbs that way he could bully his way to the rim more and draw more fouls and be be deadly with the screens and off ball actions.
He's just that gamer from 24 Hour Fitness dialed up to 11.
cool
👍🏾👍🏾
lakers a bit better than last year, but damn. Still require another center and the back up pg is gabe vincent who hasnt played like he did in miami
Ar and DK are legit hoopers and im glad we got them and no one else. The best part is they're white so people sleep on them which makes them both x factors on any given night. They brought what we needed and thats IQ because lebron cant be the only player with a high IQ at his age. Anyone else notice how much trust lebron plays with since JJ showed up
What about his flaws? He can be a liability, and that ain’t good, that ain’t good at all!
The rest is defence problem only
Would we compare him to someone like Derrick white? 🤔
People tried to tell me BRANDON PODZIEMSKI was better lol
reaves skill is not obviously seen is because he is playing beside two superstars Lebron and Ad. skill wise he is way better than dlo
Austin is the main problem because he can't guard any starting guards in this league and if JJ keeps him in the starting line up they are going absolutely nowhere unfortunately JJ is just as bad as coach scam and Rob and Jeannie should be called out for ruining this team her father must be rolling over in his grave 😎
But now they got rid of the great Anthony Davis and got fat spoiled Luca, who’s going to ruin Austin’s game
Playmaker
Reeves only matters in a soft era where players are contractually not allowed to play defense 😂😂😂 he's a 7ppg 9th man in any other era.
5’4 muggsey averaged 11-9 in those “hardcore” eras 💀
If I am the HC of LAL's opponent, I will run my offense thru whoever Austin Reaves is guarding.
Bruh I thought bronny got better handles than any guys playing in the nba...now AR taking the role off bronny, that's that's insane 😅
Dalton K. for the win.
He goes somewhere where he doesn’t get his Laker whistle and he is every bit of meh
That out of bounds play is so basic that it's done in middle school basketball. Common now. 😂
The ability to execute basic plays against NBA defenses is one of the best things an offense can do.
Holy repetative exagerated clickbait title. If I see "changes everything" one more time I think I am going to change everything.
Come on, we can do better than this as a society, can't we?
This changes everything.
@@poly_g6068 Darn it. Now I have to change everything. This could take a while. Where to start?
Love him, but he ain't as good as people think he is. Good role player who is borderline a liability on defense though.
How’s he a liability on defense? He can hold his own it’s not his fault they have him defending the best player on the opposite team half the time
Yeah, he does change everything. He can't play defense.
Tell me how he has trash defense
@asxpsecret1506 uuuhhh, all the top guards beat him off the dribble 😐
@ screens?
@@asxpsecret1506 get over them lol
Seriously, go watch top defenders like Dru Holiday. They either get around the screen, or communicate the switch properly. It's hard, & one of the reasons why even guys like Damien Lilard are sub par back court defenders, but it's pretty much Mando for playing todays game at a high level.
@ ok an is jrue holiday known for his offense or defense ?
He flops more than LeBron!!! Can't play defense!!! Ever team goes after him on defense!!! Only player that flops when he shoots besides LeBron!!!
