Look at this beautiful play call by the Pacers. Mcdermott goes down low to set a pick for Justin Holiday. And Holiday starts sprinting outside. As the defender bites on it, Holiday comes back so that he is the actual screen man for Mcdermott who goes in the opposite corner. The open look is secured by another screen right here, and this three pointer goes in.
That was a great design by Indiana and I have 5 more to show you. What up everybody my name is Stefan and this is Heat Check. Let’s get into it.
The Lakers ran Avory Bradley from the corner, past this first screen, and the second one, so that when he gets the ball on the handoff, Bradley has the angle on his defender, and it’s now a 3 on 2 situation. Siakam has to get up on him, but then the second defender has to make a decision. Drop down with Howard or not leave Anthony Davis open for the 3. He chooses the latter, which opens up the lob and the strong finish on this alley oop.
And speaking of lobs, here is another beautiful design by the Suns. Kelly Oubre starts in the corner. Gets a screen and goes full speed to set a pick himself. Only thing is, he actually slips is. And now Oubre is a full step in front of Kyrie, curls around Kaminski and goes air born to put an exclamation mark to this great play.
Check out what it means to have Nikola Jokic on your team. He brings the ball up, and goes toward the right wing ready to hand it off to Gary Harris. And look at the poetry in motion here.
No pass, Harris keeps moving, curls to the basket and an absolutely phenomenal pass by Jokic with some spin on it for a great finish.
The sixers pulled a fast one on the Hornets. Watch this.
As Mike Scott goes to set a pick for Furkan Korkmaz, you can see Bridges is already looking behind as everything points to a double screen for Korkmaz to come out and take the shot.
And with everyone expecting exactly that, it was quite easy for the Turkish international to just cut to the basket and get a layup on this possession.
And finally here is a nice option play from the Milwaukee Bucks. Lopez hands it off to George Hill and goes down low where Matthews is going to screen for him. And you see the nice inside position that Lopez has here. And as you can notice, if there is a switch, or a double team, which in this case the thunder defense kind of does none of those things, but if it was to happen, Matthews sprints to the 3 point line, has a screen from Ilyasova, the pass can go here, and an open look from three. But in this case, the 2 points inside worked out just fine for them.
And there you have it. Just a disclaimer guys, I’m not a coach or anything like that, I just show you what I see on the court. A lot of these sets probably have proper names and might be easily recognizable, but at the end of the day I’m doing these videos for people who might notice a bit less than I do. That’s how I show stuff to you guys, and that’s how I train myself to see things better. Anyway let me know if I should show the whole play after the breakdown. I feel like it’s good to see it not being chopped up and just to flow all in 1 motion, but if it’s repetitive let me know by replying to my pinned comment on this video. This is a test version, so it’s a bit short. I’ll experiment more if you like this style.
That’s it for now if you liked this video subscribe and hit the notification bell so that you don’t miss my future in depth analysis. Talk to you in the next one. Peace out.
*These are plays from yesterday. Again, just testing things out. Would you watch breakdowns like this one if it’s 3+ days in the week? And should I keep the full replay at the end of each breakdown?*
Heat Check yoooo love your vids
Yes and yes.
I like to see the actual play after you analysed it in real time. t helps sharpen the eye on this situations.
Indeed and indeed
YES AND YES. I only started watching the NBA about a year ago and your videos and easy methods of explaining have really helped me pay more attention to the game in a meaningful way (watching off the ball). And yes do keep the replays at the end of each sequence because then we get to review the tape and see if we notice the off the ball setups without your guide markers.
I like this format. A quick, well explained breakdown with the replay directly afterwards so you can see it at full speed and pick out the details for yourself. Short and to the point, gets the job done. You should definitely keep doing these.
Wish I read this comment before I wrote mine 😂 You said it perfectly
Except for the awkward silence during the replay. Other than that, perfect
Exactly! It's great
Agreed. Thinking about foing this for the nfl
Absolutely agree on this +1
"Let's get into it"

This is one of the best videos i've seen, I would watch 50 more plays, great job, format is perfect as well
Exacty my thoughts.
Give me 20min of this replays... I'll watch them.
I think this format is good. Show the whole video afterwards and it is nice to see how fast are the things that you are showing us.
Keep up the good work!
Absolutely YES.
Please PLEASE do 2 of this videos a week. I just loved the format, the clean replay afterwards, everything.
You teach us a lot, seriously.
Keep it up.
1:28 this pass needs to be talked about more. Absolutely incredible accuracy from rubio
Yeah, he anticipated when the the other guy would take off.
Gamer One of the best playmakers in the game.
Great video as always, the last I was this early Udonis Haslem was ballin.
The only problem with this video is that it's not 1 hour long with 100+ plays explained like this. Good job!
I don’t mind the full video after you break it down. It’s actually kinda nice cuz I’m definitely no basketball analytics expert so I love seeing your breakdowns followed by a live real time replay of it.
I think the video structure was spot on. Enough to understand, but not overdone. And no ones laughing at you, dood. I, for one, really appreciate these breakdowns. Ive been a b-ball fan for 30 years, but I’ve never picked out a play watching real time(except for maybe a Kerr inbound play... he’s real good at those). Thanks for all you do...
You the goat bro! Thanks for the content
The full version gives even a better educational purpose to your previous explanation, really like it!
You are my go to person for break down and analysis. You don't bow your head to nobody. There are "pros' who don't do it as well as you do. You do it without ego, you do it succinctly and you do it with no wasted motion. Hat's off to you Stephan.
Kevin O'Rourke
The denver's plyas is awesome because it totally depends of Jokic's genius passing skill
Most UA-camrs would click bait, stretch this out to a 10min video for the Ad money.
Love your content and straight to the point format.
I'd watch anything you decide to make.
3:08 We know, you play for the nets.
lol 👀
Great Video. You B-Ball Videos are by far the best. No hate, no hype, no nonsense just pure analysis. I love what you doing.
Love this style. You make us all smarter when we watch a bb game.
Despite that you tell us that you’re not a coach, you have a great vision what kind of plays happen on baseball court, that most of the people don’t notice. My favorite baseball channel. Keep on going with great work @Heat check
Idk why, but ur voice is satisfying to hear, and match the video really well, keep it up heat check, love from indonesia ♥️
I love this channel. Real basketball breakdowns showing how the plays really unfold. It’s super easy to just watch for entertainment sometimes and not really appreciate the brains behind the game
I love your channel. I love your honesty. I don't know the name to all the different actions either but I am learning. Keep up the good work.
When you see these plays, you understand why basketball is such a beautiful sport! Thanks Stefan for pointing out!
The format is good :) I think most of these plays were quiet ad-hoc, the players recognized the opportunities and made their move to do something unexpected. As you can see the PG didn't make any sign :D
When players practice the plays in the training, they try out many outcome scenarios ;)
+Great channel, man (peace out from Europe)!
Love the breakdown! Honestly your style and way you present the plays makes it simple enough for casual fans to understand. Would love to 6 genius defensive plays next!
The nuggets one has been their go-to play for the past few years. They can run it with any of their guards or even Millsap.
Nice content bruh. You my official NBA content provider now on IG. No nonsense, straight facts. Keep it up!
This format is the best🙌 full replay right after the explanation for a better look at the poetry✨
Hey could you make a video about Jokic's back to back game winners
the thing i liked most was that you actually show the play in full speed after you analyzed it
I love these videos. They can help a lot of players increase their basketball iq and learn new plays from the pros themselves. In addition, we get an awesome person like you to explain how to plays work so that it can be run to perfection.
Great video. I love how you break it down then let us watch the mastery. I need more😭😂
Man this is good thank you for these videos, because of adhd its hard for to read plays like this and even the simple ones, so its helpful.
High quality video with no long introductions. first video for me thank you
One of the most down to earth content creators on UA-cam
Everyone: VIBE CHECK
Stefan: HEAT CHECK
Great video, I like this format. The repetition is good because it helps understand the full context of the actions.
Thank you for the content you produce. It’s been so helpful in my transition from being someone who just watched basketball for fun to being someone who wants to know that little bit more about tactics. Thanks to your videos I know feel I’m noticing a lot more which has only increased my enjoyment
I believe this kind of videos is very nice. Oher UA-camrs do similar analysis but u are the only one that does very short videos and it's pleasure to watch it also cause is short so keep on man!
This made so much sense! Well done! I get so confused by other videos. Keep it up man!
These vids are so entertaining.Keep up the good work.🔥🔥🔥👏👏
It’s great, and even essential in my opinion to see the play entierly after the breakdown ! The way you did it here was perfect. Also, you keep asking for our point of you and you really are listening to us, that’s so cool, keep it up 😁
I like the replay at the end. It helps me to study and digest your analysis afterwards without the pen writings. If you ain't no coach, then why is it I am ballin out in my rec league by applying what I've learned here?
This channel is excellent. Always insightful content. Always logical and shows the hidden aspects of the game. This vid format is perfect, flows well, keep it up!
This is the best video I've seen on your channel. Please keep making these. They're very beneficial to people who want to learn more about basketball and play options. Keep up the excellent work!
Everything you do is great, just keep making videos
Great work Stephan. Its not that NBA defenses are bad, its because offenses have became too good
Keep showing in full after the breakdown :) Also you have really helped me watch basketball. Obviously I always liked watching NBA but now that I know sorta what to look for I can appreciate it much more, and of course your videos always show me something really interesting.
Your videos have always been on point Stephen...please show the whole video after the breakdown, it is some sort of repetition but that is what the game of basketball is all about. Keep up the great work!
I lik the full clip after. It shows how things happen in real time.
Keep up the good work
Awesome video bro. I liked how you replayed it after explaining it. Keep it up!
I always see your vids. I watched it one time, and damn it's good. However, it's quite short. I hope you make longer videos like Coach Nick :)
More videos like this. This is what basketball is all about. Great content.
Love this sort of content man! And please keep the full replays they are a perfect addition.
I always use that suns play I think it was Quick fly cut alley except oubre doesn't slip and the opposing big man always drops down to intercept the alley-oop
Awesome video Stephen! Simple and to the point! keep em coming!
Great video Stephen , i think its more helpful for the average NBA fan to see these kind of simple videos but at the same time complicated rather than extreme words and hyperanalysis . You should consider every week doing a top 10-20 tactical plays , it will definitely help us appreciate basketball ( we , europeans love tactics and its hurts that NBA doesn't give credits to the coaches ) . Carry on with the excellent work !!!🇬🇷🇬🇷🇬🇷Greetings from Greece !
Hands down
The best basketball cannel on the tube. ♥️
Ιt is really nice to watch the whole play without any interruption after the breakdown. Keep up the good work white Kyrie.
"what up everybody my name is Stefan and this is heat check"..best stuff...shame on all that gave a dislike
Simple but precise. Only in heat check.
More videos pls stephen
I don't think there will be never any complaints. Not 1 complaint.
Especially when the NBA, college, and high school coaches are watching this channel.
The real players watches this channel.
Love this Stephan. Always learning from your vids.
You should do a series of videos in this format. One for each team with 5 of their best or most used plays
I first thought this was a Miami Heat fan channel. You got the Miami Vice colors going on. I really like this though. Short videos but stright to the point.
such an underrated youtuber. deserves more subs
I love the videos, even for coaches! I would love for you to find more plays and go over the different variations they play during games! Keep up the good work!!!
Jokic making passes look routine that few mortals would attempt!
Hope the NBA will be back in Philippine tv. 🇵🇭 The contract got expired then the NBA raised the offer too much that almost all of the tv networks from Philippines that have NBA before didn't even tried to negotiate. There's million of us Filipinos who loves NBA so much. 🏀 🏀 And thank you Heat Check for the nice content. 🇵🇭♥
Love you, your format and the things you choose to focus on. Also thanks for reminding me I need to pay more attention to the great player that is Jokic.
Love it nice short video going straight to the point definitely like more of these vids u have earned a new sub
Great video, direct to the point and shows you what plays each team are running.
First on3 was great, but Holiday didn't even noticed that he would be totally alone if he went back on right side instead of screening. Good player would have read that and react. Normally one play cwn deive several outcomes, just need to react to defense and react 😀 great analysis, tho. I expected to see elevator again 😀😀😀
I think this short and to the point format is one of your characteristic and what makes me hooked.. you don't hv to become "like everybody else" and breakdown the whole game. but you could try making one video and see the result. anyway great content as always
Best nba channel. You really deserve a carreer doing this.
Forgive my english, i follow you from italy 😅
Now i can watch the video 🤣
I like the format
Slow down during the analysis then watch the whole thing in actual speed, it’s a good format
Very well explained Sir. Live this kind of videos
This is an excellent format. I like the explanation then when it goes on to run in real time. Well done! 👍🏀👏
Amazing breakdown of the plays, you could be a great coach, also people should consider adding that Lakers play on their playbook
I loved this video bro keep it up
This is what I wanted when I looked for in-depth basketball analysis on UA-cam. Find the names of the plays please.
@1:35 That looks like a moving screen. Refs missed it
I love your content please keep going
That Pacer play was fantastic. Loved it
The Laker one was good but horribly defended by the Raptors. It's Avery Bradley with the ball....let him shoot the mid range of challenge the big. No way you worried about him so much to give up an open look to AD or a lob to Howard.
Suns, Nuggets and Sixers are all nice plays too. The importance of players ability to improvise is underrated as a skill, that's the key to those in my opinion.
Bucks play is one any team with a decent big should consider running. These big man need touches to stay engaged, instead of running around setting picks and never touching the ball in a position to score.
This is fantastic!! I haven’t seen anything like this since @bballbreakdown
I’ve been yearning for content like this, keep it up my dude.
I love this analysis ❤️❤️ we want more videos like this
Love the vid! I always watch your videos high af!! Trip out content...
And Pau said the game isn't as beautiful today. Love the vid
Thank you. This footage clips was excellent to watch. 🌟🙌
Beautiful to watch, great analysis 👌🏼
video is great as it is. I rewound some of the plays manually to see them a 3rd time.
For me it's working! And the play of Jokic was something EXTRAORDINARY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :)
Definitely showing the play in full speed again is very helpful.
A nice breakdown. Personally this is the perfect format. Keep the new content coming
bro you are an expert. keep doing these videos!
Heat check still use same room/background for the pass years.. great, simple, straighttothepoint content..
This is the illest setup among NBA youtubers brodie no way I'm changing this 😂
Amazing video these are so convenient as I don't want to watch a ten minuet video when I can can the same if not better content in three minuets
Genius nba in-depth analysis.
