If i didn’t know you as Roy Hibbert, i could literally just see you as any other great youtuber. The editing and camera personality are very good, like you were made for this lmao🤌
Thanks. I’m a college basketball broadcaster during the season. This helps me get reps and get ready for the upcoming season. Which will my 3rd season behind the desk
@@RoyHibbertYT Hey Roy. I don't know if you will read this, and I don't think know if this is up your alley, but I always wondered what pro basketball players think of how 2k players have somewhat recreated some ideas in 2k. For example, 2-3 zones are extremely prevalent in 2k, and offenses are almost 5-out, because players can shoot like 60-80% when open from 3. How do you think these would affect the way defenses and offenses are constructed? I wish I could get LakerFan or someone more familiar with comp ProAM to talk about this since I'm not really all too familiar.
@@RoyHibbertYT i was watching indy basketball back in the days (as a teenager). Imho - you had the best pacers team ever! I remember your kicks with the word BEAST written on one of them. A great smart dominant Center !! Thank you for this channel, and for dropping all this knowledge! 🤙🤙🙌🙌🙏🙏
Hibbert is a legend in basketball. There will be future players who will model his type of play and become hall of famers because of it. Just like how Jokic studied Boris Diaw. Thanks for your contribution to the basketball community Roy.
@@RoyHibbertYT And you are! The legacy guys like you and Gobert will leave to the league is pure gold, man. Verticality and defensive discipline & positioning. A lots of guys must study your game.
@@RoyHibbertYTwould be nice to get your thoughts on trending basketball or sports related topics, would also help you get into the algorithm more and grow you already have the editing and personality down, just gotta get the eyes
I would love if you could make some content detailing the differences between hunting blocks and actually effective rim protection, both as the primary and help defender @RoyHibbertYT
The future is so cool. Ive never thought Roy Hibbert himself would be making breakdown vids. Elite stuff. Always one of my favorite players. Glad to see you doing well man.
As a Knicks fan I had a love/hate relationship with Roy Hibbert. His rim protection was phenomenal... one of the absolute best at staying vertical. I just hate that he and that Pacers squad bounced my Knicks in 2013. Awesome to see him doing his thing. Wishing him all the best!
This is crazy! Randomly got recommended your video, grew up watching you going up against my heat in the playoffs. Really enjoyed the video keep up the good work!!
I remember as a heat fan, you were literally and figuratively the biggest threat to our team almost every time. We had little to no answer for you… now I can sit back comfortably and enjoy your channel without sweating bullets😅 much love now and keep the great content up!
Can't believe we have real experts of their craft on UA-cam breaking stuff down for us now. This next generation of hoopers is going to be ridiculously advanced, thanks for sharing with us
something i would LOVE to get insight on would be competitive rebounding and rebounding techniques, especially with some highlights to back up theory. i’m fascinated by good rebounding technique, like past the point of even just boxing out i would love to know actual techniques for physically fetching the ball through a carom
Awesome video, Roy. Film breakdown is right up your alley which makes sense, I remember broadcasts talking about how smart of a player you were going back to when you were at Georgetown and then all thru your career. In fact, your DraftExpress profile is still available to read today and it says you are "an incredibly smart player". Really hope you keep making videos, could very easily see you being very popular doing these types of breakdowns.
@@RoyHibbertYT It's definitely a fun blast from the past going back to 2008. Honestly wild to think about the Center position itself and how it was viewed back then vs now. At some point in your UA-cam journey I'd love for you to breakdown those different playoff series against Miami. That was some of the smartest & grittiest basketball I've seen in a long time, both rosters were just stacked with smart dudes and both coaches were outstanding. Could even clickbait the title as "Former Rival reacts to LeBron James". Want to make it extra fun, only breakdown IND wins lol. Or honestly other easy views would be "Former Teammate reacts to Nikola Jokic". It would be so interesting to see how you react to his game. Even in this video you talk about challenging dudes to shoot that 8ft floater. Pretty sure Jokic is like 70% on floaters. Just be cool to see one thinking man react to 2 thinking men.
Man , this is not getting the recognition it deserves , not just cause you're an nba player , but as somebody with a very high basketball IQ, this deserves to reach out more . Best wishes my guy. Never got to see you play live, but your highlights are like a rim protection rule book
I still remember your breakfast from that magazine 😂 It was ham. Caramelized bananas with oatmeal and a giant cup of water 😂 You PG and David had some good runs 💯🔥
Wow Roy this is really good stuff. Im using this tomorrow in my pickup game. Even though we play almost exclusively man to man there are good concepts in here for me as a big. Keep em coming please we need it!
Me and my late dad always adores Hibbert and the blue and gold pacers during that run and hoping dethrone heat in the East. Nice to see Hibbert talking about basketball now
Awesome video man. Just happened to see this pop up and will definitely subscribe. I’m happy we get to see your personality and support you post NBA career.
Gonna give that elbows tip a try. It can be pretty uncomfortable catching the ball in the middle and facing the hoop knowing you got 2 guards right behind you. Another thing I like doing as the big is setting a pin-in on one of the guards near the elbow so my shooter on the wing has a free catch and shoot.
Wassup Roy! I admired you when you were playing for Indiana and was so excited when you joined my Lakers. I know it didn't lead to championships, but I don't think that's on you. I only have love and am excited all over again that you're making this kind of content (especially now that JJ Reddick stopped because he's coaching my Lakers). Great topic to get things going. SUBSCRIBED!
Thanks boss. That was a rough year with the lakers. But to get to know Kobe on a personal level. Even if it was for a season was hella dope. Learned a lot from him. But yea I love making different type of content. I love those nba podcasts tho. Brings back memories.
You were a beast in indiana. Loved that squad was always a fan but even if you werent id still love your videos. You have a great personality for youtube. I play in a mens league team and learned a lot from this video. Thank you 👍🏾@@RoyHibbertYT
The editing of this video is very eye catching. You don’t seem to be camera shy whatsoever ❤️. It’s great to see a legend still loving the game of basketball. Would also love to see you on the Paul George Podcast and see you two chop it up.
My son is a pg, He was on a bad AAU team who couldn't beat 2-3 zone. Our coach kept bringing the big man to the foul line and having my son dump off to him. Problem was big man couldn't pass dribble or shoot So this strategy did not work. But now I see what the coach was thinking At least. He just didn't have the personnel I guess. 🤷
Clicked because of the first part of the title, got hella surprised when I realized who posted it. I’m glad I clicked because this is GREAT content! Keep it up, Roy, great insight and delivery! Much love from Romania.
@@RoyHibbertYT I found it so interesting this past season how coaches were putting their 5s on the opposition's worst shooter and forcing guards to run PnRs with wings or even other guards to attack the bigs. Seems like it's almost the new base defense against killer guards like Luka or SGA.
Would love a vid on attacking switch heavy/positionless defenses, maybe not as relevant for competitive hoopers but for the rest of us normal folk who mostly play pickup ball without significant size differences it would be awesome. Keep it up big man
This is perfect! I’ve been looking for a good zone defense break down for a while and you made it so simple. I feel more confident in the analyses coming from an experienced professional.
Weve finally reached the age where we can listen to actual NBA players talk about basketball frfr
Thank you boss.

I didn’t really show my personality when I played. This is my chance to now.
@@RoyHibbertYT i was watching indy basketball back in the days (as a teenager). Imho - you had the best pacers team ever! I remember your kicks with the word BEAST written on one of them.
A great smart dominant Center !! Thank you for this channel, and for dropping all this knowledge! 🤙🤙🙌🙌🙏🙏
@@RoyHibbertYT Dude I used to hate you in getting all those rebounds against Miami back then 😅 Gave them a Game 7 scare.
@princemjbp695 Bro people forget how scary RH was in the paint As a heat Fan 😭 this man really showed vertical defense at its best
Love it when players break down film like this. It’s so refreshing compared to some of the other basketball coverage out there.
I like the content other retired NBA player make. I’m a broadcaster so this is in line with what I do for a living. Thanks boss
Roy’s basketball IQ is underrated.
A part of exceeding in official basketball is being coachable, Roy definitely shows that in his content.
Facts
Hibbert is a legend in basketball.
There will be future players who will model his type of play and become hall of famers because of it.
Just like how Jokic studied Boris Diaw.
Thanks for your contribution to the basketball community Roy.
Wow. Thanks for the kind words. I hope to leave an impact.
@@RoyHibbertYT And you are! The legacy guys like you and Gobert will leave to the league is pure gold, man. Verticality and defensive discipline & positioning. A lots of guys must study your game.
did jokic really study boris?
@@john3497A He said his favorite player growing up was Magic
@@RoyHibbertYT If Zach Edey is smart he'll be brushing up on some of that film. The league still doesn't know what to do with guys that big.
Man used to be a DAWG vs D rose and my bulls, kinda strange (in a good way) to see him chillin talking hoops. Keep it pushing my guy💪🏾
Love making content. Love UA-cam. I get to be creative
As a casual hooper, not only did i enjoy this video but i learned so much!
Thanks. Trying to make good content.
We need a bballbreakdown and Roy collaboration.
Yes, that would be fire. Been scratchin youtube to find good IQ and breakdown videos.
One with ThinkingBasketball could be dope too
We need this on every defense scheme!
Woah. I can put that on the list.
Amazing stuff from a bona fide NBA stud. More value in ball knowledge than the average fan recognizes.
Thank you friend.
Good to see you roy, miss those days when u played us Miami vs pacers !!
Thank you friend. Was some fun times.
The first step in breaking the zone defense is really accurate. Much love from PH
Love to see players share their knowledge with all us up and coming hoopers. Thanks Roy 🙏

Good times.

@@RoyHibbertYT definitely man im just trying to get in shape but I want to be better every game. Thank you!
First time running into this channel, it’s awesome that you’re giving back and paying it forward.
You need to get on Podcast P
Kyle Anderson does a really good job at getting into the soft spot of zone defenses and making the next play
This is super dope! I love hearing insights from an actual pro who played, it gives a completely different perspective that you don't normally get.
Thanks. Just trying to be a little different
Pleasant surprise seeing Roy Hibbert on UA-cam! I remember watching pacers v heat in the playoffs on a laggy stream when I was young.
Wish we could have won those series.

@@RoyHibbertYT thanks for the reply man. I still remember your game 6 block on Melo 🚫🏀

Thanks. Let me know which teams in the league or in college this upcoming season is the best at scoring against zones.
