ESPN pays all these so- called experts hundreds of thousands of dollars, but channels like Thinking Basketball are putting out this kind of content for free
I mean they do get paid just not directly
What you see on ESPN are personalities, they do know ball but their personalities are what stand out.
dhsilv2 Love it how you and others dont realize that most of their argumentation on tv is to cause discussions so they'll earn more money.
It also gives people who have no viable basketball experience or logic at all, the confidence to think they actually know what they're talking about even over all time greats which causes even more (online) discussions.
So yea, you are just brainfucked by them.
@dhsilv2 Most of them know a little bit of ball, but yes it's not enough to be on TV lol.
Thor Odinson he deserves UA-cam money
"Pronounced Posterior" *DID BEN TAYLOR JUST CALL LOWRY DUMMY THICC*
HE DIDN'T SAY NO HOMO OH SHIT OH FUCK
@@jorgua3250 Kelly Oubre and Lowry are 2 exceptions to this rule.
I'm fucking crying right now.
Big bum point guard nation!!!
Get Raymond Felton in here!
Lmaooooo
I never thought anyone would compare Mbappe and Siakam
Caught me off guard too
Wow crazy comparison. But I can see what he means
It's so weird but on point.
I mean he’s totally right, they are both crazy fast and deadly on fast breaks
@jj he's a european soccer player
Lowry is the NBA's physicist, he has an inherent understand of how to use mass, momentum, speed, and energy to his advantage.
mASS
shoutout to Vanfleet, made Lowry look like an overpaid all-star in the raptors.
@@javierlandaverde4108 Damn Javier esquella, Kawhi made them better
Kawhi kept them in bay, close games through out the playoffs and taking over there and there but Vanvleet was the one loading the clip and spraying at the warriors in the fourth quarter.
Javier Landaverde you forget that Vanvleet was shit for half the playoffs then had a kid and finally started getting buckets
Finally someone puts respect on lowrys name he doesn’t fill up the stat sheet but when you watch him you realize how smart do good he is.
I Been saying that. Lowry is the King. He is borderline Hall of famer
ymf fluest it’s not borderline. He’s first ballot material
This postseason he did great besides a couple games their, he and DeRozen really struggled there time together.
Ethan Gilworth don’t know bout first ballot, but he has a chance at being a HOF-er
The posterior is definitely filled
Kyle Lowry is a True Point Guard. The media values scorers, instead of a dying breed of players like Lowry. I’m glad you made this video so others can see that Lowry brings more to the table than scoring. He’s not even a scorer, he’s said numerous times that he’s stepped down to be more of a facilitator for the uprising of Siakam and Vanvleet.
dying breed, this why I dont want him traded, he's not past his prime yet, he's still coming off it.
Lowry is a floor general in every sense of the word, he's literally a walking signature skill he just makes people better and the offense flows better with him on the floor
And he's a strong point guard his strength in 2k should be 80
In clutch time he gets bucket with ease tho. Draw fouls drives and lay up or a clutch 3
One of Lowry's most endearing qualities to us Raptors fans is that he plays basketball like a hockey player. He will be that physical little bulldog that simply makes your life a nightmare to make up for not being the most skilled player out there.
Basketball players could really learn from hockey players. The best to ever be like that was Rodman. He just wanted that ball more than anyone did and he was happy to give it up to someone else. Hockey is so fun because its such a struggle for control of the puck, and basketball can absolutely be more like that if players aren't all about scoring, which so many seem to be.
One of Lowry's most endearing qualities to me is his honkin booter ngl
GrayEcho honkin booter bud
Ryan Sansaricq so true, the tenacity and passion for the ball
@@thisisSPARTAorsprite people hate the warriors but if I gotta give it up to any of them its Draymond he plays basketball like a hockey player, definitely to a fault.
He's so genuinely fun to watch. An absolute nerd on the court. He's not light on his feet and lacks height, but Lowry is a winner and has correlated with several years of consecutive playoff runs and excellent reg season records in Toronto. We love the guy despite his limitations, he just makes you feel at ease when on the court.
What?? Fun to watch?? Is flopping and cheating what u call fun?
Adeline Sarkissian Warriors or sixers fan?
@@andrewpayette621 that's what I'm saying
seauxmali femme 5 yrs ago I would agree with you, this version of Lowry is not enjoyable to me, he has a very high IQ but in important games he seems out of place. He’s played great in this years Finals tho
@@andrewpayette621 oh come on, that's not fair
he could be a bucks fan
This is among the reasons the raps were 2019 champs. Not everyone is a stat sheet padder. But when you watch them, you'll see the little things they do that give them big advantages
I think you mean...... Vanfleet.. made Lowry play easier and less burden on his shoulder to carry those clutch points and defensive work.
@@javierlandaverde4108 every Raptors players contribute alot
Awesome video. Smart people know that Kyle Lowry is an excellent point guard. Watch him play, don't just watch his box score.
the box score will feature his insane +/-
@@hostjoe casuals don't even know what that means. They just look at points
@@hostjoe prime example is game 1 agaisnt orlando. The infamous 0 point game but was +11 and was basically the only + guy in the raptors. That tells you why he is still valuable to the team even if he cant score. Unlike DeRozan, when he can't score he is a straight up liability. I am not huge on +/- but if you whole team is negative or barely a + and you are fucking +11 that's saying something.
Exactly
You forgot to mention Lowry has been a top 10 player in Real Plus Minus for several years now. The dude is just a winner that makes his team better, even if he doesn't look flashy doing it.
@Tripp’le H You don't know what you're talking about. Lowry in game 7 of the Eastern Conference Semi's in 2016 against the Heat he had 35 points, 9 assists and 7 rebounds, leading the Raptors to the conference finals. In the conference finals against the Cavaliers he led the Raptors to two wins, scoring 35 points again, in both. Lowry actually shot very well in the 2017 and 2018 playoffs. His only awful playoff run was in 2015 where he was visibly hurt. Learn the fucking facts before you talk out of your ass, because you don't know shit.
@@Fitplayer66 Don't forget he had an injured thumb this year, so his shooting was off and he looked to pass a lot more.
@Tripp’le H The thing about lowry is even if he doesnt score, he does other things to help the team. Honestly, some of the blame has to be put on him since if he just made the free throws they would've won but he was +11 on the court when basically the whole raptors roster was a minus. Im usually not high on +/- but when you have 0 points 7 assists and +11 when all your teammates are negative thats saying something.
This is low key the best you basketball Chanel on UA-cam
Edit: Also please do Tobais Harris
Lowkey? It is no doubt.
@@noobfax4395 this and bballbreakdown but coach nick is little more biased this is mostly pure facts and stats
J M facts
@@jebinm4706 ben is biased too
Floyd steel Ben is a behavioral scientist. He’s aware of his biases and tries to avoid them as much as possible
I'm surprised that you noticed Lowry's ability (his strength) to guard and box out bigger and taller players when switched onto them, casual fans, U.S. commentators, and even some basketball UA-camrs never notice it. Having been a avid Raptors fan for a while, I'm so happy that at least someone (apart from us REAL Raps fans) can appreciate all the little things KLow brings to the court and how integral he is to the team!
Earned yourself a new sub, keep up the great content!
Agree. Bigger players thought they could post up against Lowry on a switch.. lol The only person who can easily score over Lowry is Klay Thompson. He just basically turns around and shoot knowing that Lowry won't be able to block him. But for most post players (power forwards and centres), they could barely get passed Lowry's stout frame.. lol
This is a great analysis on modern day Kyle Lowry. But some also forget that from about 2014-17 he was also a decent finisher and looked for more isolation opportunities, while being one of the best shooters in the league. But it is his smartness and grit that I think will help him have a long career.
2014-17 Raptors dwane casey post-time out playbook was literally Derozan/lowry iso. No Plays. LMAO
Thumbs up just for the Mbappe and Siakam reference
Brian Viscara lol yesss 😂
I’m really surprised someone used a football ( soccer) player to describe a basketball player, first time I’ve witnessed it.
I almost cried bcz Of how good this vid o was
Lowry is so underrated and I was literally tearing up when he hoisted the Larry OB. This man has grown so much as a player and become a lethal point guard who adds so much more than the box score reveals. Best Raptor ever.
Always loved Lowry. The year the Rockets had him right before they got Harden, I watched him every game and was amazed at how much of an impact he had on the game on all levels. HOF for sure.
Glad to see lowry getting some love. Definitely a championship pg!
Lowry is one crafty bastard, and I enjoy his smarts and effort-based game a lot.
You need to do an update on Kyle Lowry. Looking back at this, his offensive weaknesses was his finishing at the rim, but after that Boston series I think that part of his game needs an updated closer look. And his defense improved this season. Measuring by win shares, he outranks All NBA Defense guards like Marcus Smart, Patrick Beverley, and Eric Bledsoe. 2019-2020 season he was the best defensive guard on the best defensive team. He should've been NBA All Defensive 1st team, but instead was completely snubbed. Just another addition, in Defensive Real Plus Minus, he ranks higher than BOTH Marcus Smart and Eric Bledsoe. It's absolutely crazy to me he was completely snubbed, and these stats alone should spell out he's the best defensive guard in the NBA.
Great video showcasing the little things Lowry is great at. Exciting to see him and Pascal build more chemistry next year.
to compare him to another footballer Lowry reminds me of Kenny Dalglish, a Liverpool and Scotland legend whose main weapon was his football brain and his rather large rear end that could shield the ball efficiently from bigger, stronger and faster players. Doesn't show up much in stats either but he was vital to the teams success
Can you make a video on Marc Gasol's value in the playoff run? I feel like he is very underrated due to his scoring numbers during the run.
Please !!
Turn back the clocks to defensive player of the year back in his prime in Memphis.
As soon as they traded for him that's when I changed my prediction from the bucks being the favorites to come out the east to the Raptors. He was easily the best big man defender in the playoffs.
When they got Marc, first thing I told my nephew: This is some anti Embiid, shit I’m sure. I was right lol. But overall he was shutting down offenses for the whole playoff chip run.
I agree that a Marc Gasol video would be fascinating!
I love K Low! Canadian legend and greatest Raptor ever!
As a Raptors fan I will always defend his game. He was taken in the 20's draft night and worked his ass off with limited natural ability to become what I call "The Everyman All Star." He doesn't excel at anything but has carved out a role where he finds himself as a starting pg on almost any team in the nba. People like John Wall who had higher peaks fizzle out but Lowry has managed to stay at a solid all star level. I think with his chip this past year he deserves consideration for HOF.. Which is mind blowing I know, but if you really think about and compare accolades theres no reason why he cant. I mean Tracy McGrady never even made it past the first round
🤔 If he returns to the all star game 2 or 3 more times, I think he has a solid case, especially when comparing to Tmac.
Anthony Norman I think he’s in dude. He’ll be a 5+ time All-Star, have an All-NBA appearance, second best player on a championship team, he’ll have have 15k points, 6k assists. Rn Basketball Reference gives him a 65% chance of making it and that number is only gonna go up
It really comes down to how he transitions in the twilight of his career. Really interested to see how he develops his game this year.
@@Jponto11 The best comparison for Lowry has to be Chauncey Billups, whose not in the HOF yet.
Obviously with KD out, Kawhi was the runaway best player in the finals last year. If you actually watched all 6 games, you would see Lowry was by far the scrappiest dude on the floor. He might not be a top 10 player in the league, but he sure made his impact felt in that series.
Chrisjb1983 Steph was way better than Kawhi in the finals hub
@@ethangilworth7891 Steph wasn't even the best player for the warriors during the finals, nor made a difference in either of their wins. Klay was. Spare me with that nonsense. He had multiple crucial turnovers and let van vleet outplay him several times. He shot the ball horribly as well. Steph has never came to play at a high level outside of that one 47 point game where his team lost horribly in any finals game he ever played.
Chrisjb1983 Jesus please don’t tell me you’re serious with that opinion? Steph was the best player on the court. As he has been 99% of the time since 2016
@@wiggyj5795 Dead serious. Steph is a phenomenal player but always struggled in high leverage situations.
VanVleet!!! since the beginning made a bigger impact on the raps. Scrappy defense, clutch shots to close the game in the fourth over Kahwi and Lowry and hustle small plays.
Kyle Lowry is actually really good he’s a pure point guard
Can you please do the problem with defensive stats compared to offensive stats in the NBA?
Edit: Also the value of elite rebounders in the NBA
mdj did a video about this topic check it out
He did a video and podcast that touch on this
Coming later in the stats series!
Couldn't fit everything in the video so I added a follow-up piece for Patreon subscribers:www.backpicks.com/2019/08/31/kyle-lowry-extras-the-2020-raptors-patreon-only/
Hopefully this makes amends for not mentioning him on the All-Decade team podcast (#25). 😌 Also should note that he injured his non-shooting thumb mid playoffs and adjusted to the glove/wrap well. And yes, the graph at 9:04 has some large swings for a shooter.
Connecting Mbappe to Siakam...Cameroon should crown you MVP of analysts!
The thing with Lowry is that just a couple seasons ago he was such a good all around scorer. In 2016-17 he averaged 22 pts and 7 assists on 46% from the field and 41% from three. He could finish at the rim, had a decent mid range game and floater and was scorching from three. It seems like in the past 2 seasons he’s deliberately stepped down his offensive game in order to give other players (like Siakam and Vanvleet) more opportunities to score. He only took 11 shots a game this year and like mentioned in this video, most of his shots were open threes or layups. It’s tough as a lowry fan because I’ve seen him display in years past that he’s capable of creating his own shot and finishing those chances as opposed to just being very passive with his own offense
How do you not have more subs? This video is more informative than a years worth of ESPN talking heads.
He was the only guard that could beat gstates traps. Whenever lowry sat kawhi was turning over the ball and fvv couldnt bring the ball up. They couldnt win without lowry
This is the best basketball channel on YT without question. My brain opens up watching this.
I’m so glad he’s on the Heat!
Watching him in the finals made me happy to see the old school point guard come back I'm a Westbrook fan and I had to admit Lowry is a way better pure point then like most of these point guards in the league
Someone finally recognizes the reason lowry is an all-star every year. Every time you talk to someone from the US they think lowry is a piece of trash when in reality Lowry is probably the best guard in the NBA at doing the dirty work and just being a team player!!!!
“NASH”ty please tell me I wasn’t the only one to pick that up.
Took me a couple of times to get that one. 😁
I liked it too
I thought I was imagining things
Thanks my raptors emo hours were abt to strike
Greetings from Finland! I've watched all your videos, some I think for like five times. They are the best!
Best basketball channel on UA-cam hands down. Hell, you're better than most "professional" analysts. Kudos!
You made this video 4 years ago and the analysis is so on point, despite the prevailing Lowery narrative hes a playoff choker - that even today after an insane run by the 8th seed Heat with Kyles 'Pronounced Posterior' leading the second unit every single take is as accurate today as it was when you made the video.
Kudos my man, the best UA-cam analyst in the biz and I struggle to think of any primetime sports talk people who can even compete with your eye and awareness.
“Kylian Mbappe like runs” THIS MAN IS ON FIRE... best analysis yet!!
I was arguing with my pops for like a whole week after the finals saying I think Lowry should've been FMVP. Also his performance against the bucks is going to be completely ignored in the future and I hate it. Same with Van Fleet.
Lol finals mvp ? Yea right.
what dude :DD
I wish you can put out more content often, but I understand that each of these takes time to make so I appreciate all your hard work.
Excellent analysis and as a fan of basketball I absolutely love that you quantify defensive plays into statistics which does not get included in box scores and official stats. Sub’d
One of my favorite channels, I enjoy all your videos. Keep up the great work!
Great video, I really love ur videos and enjoy your analysis’s of players, would love to see one on demar derozan
According to the US media, Raptors only had one superstar, Kawhi. So thank you for making this video to clarify why the Raptors won the championship as a total team effort. Lowry doesn't always look to score, but he is always the first to box-out, take charge and pass accurately to his other teammates. He is more of a traditional point guard than today's NBA standard (where the PG has the highest two attempts in a game). When Lowry is on the court, he will give you the "extra possessions" from causing turn-overs (steal or charge) and box-out to reduce offensive rebounds. This is why he is team-high in + and - numbers.
This also applies to the importance of Marc Gasol, who is quite similar to Lowry where scoring isn't his strongest suit. Gasol also does little things like Lowry to give the team extra possession. With Gasol, Lowry, Siakim, and VanVleet on the court, the Raptor's defense is one of the top teams in today's league. Just look at the playoff numbers as a team. Raptors ranked middle and near bottom in almost every offensive category but ranked near the top for lowest opponent's total score and lowest opponent shooting %. These two measurements are the end result of hard defensive work, and many of the deflections, box-outs, and chasing after switches do not get counted as your typical "stats".
It's frustrating to listen to the US media that talks about Kawhi as the ONLY worth noting player on the team. Siakim's league's newest MIP. Gasol man-handled Vucevic, Embiid and Giannis. VanVleet had a historical moment. He had a historical bad performance during the 76er's series (he got more shots blocked than shots made in the series!), and then he bounced back to shoot 13/15 three-pointers in the last three games against the Bucks. VanVleet's relentless chase after Curry also was a key defensive measure by Coach Nick. Then there is Ibaka (aka Iblocka) who was the critical player in Game 7 against the 76'ers and a key player in defeating the undersized Warriors.
After all, Kawhi has made several "history" during the 2018-2019 season: 1) most missed games due to load management (20+ games) 2) first-ever game-7 buzzer-beater against the 76'ers 3) managed to cause Paul George to break his 4-year contract in a matter of days during the "waiting period" 4) he left the Raptors after just winning the championship in less than 2 weeks 5) last, his older sister just got charged for robbing and the death of an old lady. Boy.. Kawhi is making history everywhere he goes.. lol
It's all them chunky dudes that are great defenders. Lowry, Vanvleet, Marcus Smart, Cp3
PJ Tucker.
Lol cp3 isn't chunky
2:44 "downright nash-ty" i see you
finally someone realized kyle lowry isn’t trash. He’s my favorite player and when tell someone that he is, they always say what’s wrong with you.
Lowry just does so many intangibles, one of my fav to watch ever. Heart and soul.
I'm glad Kyle is getting some praise, it's justly deserved. He was the biggest shock to me this post season as I kept expecting him to disappear and he kept making big play after big play. I'm very happy for him and think this raptors team in general doesn't get the praise they deserve because everyone went Klaw crazy and Golden State imploded with injuries. They are going to be dangerous again this year.
As a big fan of your work, may I suggest a podcast about the best lockdown defenders in the league? Loved the scorers and the playmakers one.
And may I also suggest that you do podcasts more often? 😂 I really can't stress enough how much I enjoy your podcasts and videos. Could hear and watch them everyday. And I do. But now I'm having to replay the old episodes 😁
I’ve always seen Lowry as an impact PG. Like Pat Beverly, he doesn’t need to score to impact a game. He operates within the pace of the game and plays the right way.
What he struggled with for years was putting up points when we NEEDED him to deliver and obviously last year he broke that trend, particularly in game 6.
But his value as a basketball players is barely if at all reflected in his stats. He picks his spots and makes momentum swinging plays like dagger 3s and taking charges.
Much love to your channel. This is a great breakdown.
That’s exactly why I’m a big Lowry fan. He does all the little things that done necessarily show up in the box score but help the team. He also hustles more than most other guards, always going for the loose ball, taking the charge, scrapping for rebounds, despite his size which makes him unique amongst guards too
"impromptu ambush," "lovely little lay-down," tb's turns of phrase are delightful
The "little-thing king" title is perfect. That's what Lowry is and does and that's why he's the true MVP of the Raptors. The point about the defensive backcourt pairing of Lowry and FVF is spot on (and obviously the numbers bear it out). They are undersized, but super smart and ferocious as pitbulls, so despite the obvious size mismatch available to exploit for opposing team, they typically will not risk it fearing they'll either get their pockets picked, get called for an offensive foul on the post up or draw a charge. Nurse's brilliant defensive schemes combined with the total buy-in and ball IQ of these players have the Raptors defense humming like a well-oiled machine. Love watching them play.
Thanks for another great one! Your book is amazing!
Man, another amazing video. I always had respect for, and thought Lowry was a good player, but this video gave me insight and a different perspective into the strengths that make him a great player
he's Gritty. he's like Rodman. K Lo is smart. super high IQ
As always, thanks for the extremely thoughtful and well researched content. It's refreshing in a space dominated by idiocy.
This is the best basketball analysis on UA-cam
EVERYONE IS ALWAYS SLEEPING ON LOWRY
I LOVE THIS MAN AND WEAR THE #7 JERSEY WITH PRIDE
The rare double charge
This is absolutely amazing
YES! Loving the content! Keep up the great work.
Bro idk what anyone says KLow is a goat.
Excellent video as always, and brilliant player choice!
Love the videos!
Kyle is one of the very effective point guards, I just remember him how he destroyed the defense of GSW last playoffs.
that analysis! subbed!
Never thought I'd hear "Mbappe" in an NBA analysis video 😅😅. Love your channel and your podcast. Thank you for such great content. It makes me appreciate and enjoy basketball on a different level. I'm gonna be sad the day you get hired by an NBA team for analytics and you don't have enough time for making more videos 😛
Who’s here in 2020 when Lowry is averaging 20-6-5
Kyle's willingness to sacrifice his body for a swing in momentum is truly extraordinary. He's just not afraid to take a hit from any big. From the wrong angle, that charge from Embiid could have been season or career-ending. And for the volume of slander Lowry has gotten through years of choking playoff runs up until the present, I'm glad he redeemed himself after missing the winning shot in G5 and came back to completely take over in the first quarter of G6 NBA finals on the world's biggest stage. I'm happy that both Lowry and Gasol won a chip after grinding for years.
You should do a vid examining wilt nd bill russel nd how stats would view them with blocks or j west with stls
love this vid as a Raps fan
he was boxing out simmons like a big, he strong asf
He has a great skill set and is somewhat underrated but the criticisms he gets are valid for the most part
I find his height to be his greatest weakness. Especially while driving to the basket in late game scenarios
I.e. Getting blocked by Paul Pierce in the 2014 playoffs
Pk Freeze yeet fr that’s very true
But those criticisms only apply if you consider him a "superstar". If you're a high-level role player but not clutch that's fine for example
Burn Er its not just his clutch ability its his skill level, he fuckin trash bro so many players are better than him and yet he is an all star over them
Branden Eskridge you didn’t even watch the video if you consider him trash. Maybe a couple of other guys deserved to be in the all star game but Lowry played well in the playoffs, especially in the first half of Game 6 in the finals.
🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🔥🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🏀🙏🏿Always loved this channel keep up the great work 👊🏿
that's my PG! Season needs to hurry up. I need more Raptors content.
Excellent Analysis 👍
I gotta correct you bruv. Lowry has been one of the league leaders for the past 7 years in charges taken
One of my fav players. I love his game.
Finally another video☺️
honestly so under-appreciated and underrated by nba fans
Great video
I really can't wait for the 2019-2020 season.
Excellent video but you did forget to mention his Don't poke the bear mode he gets into and puts the team on his back...maybe his best quality of all.
He is also underrated in the fact he can keep a dribble live if he doesn't find a good lay-up
yep, just like nash.
Great work!
Awesome analysis
Thank you! Lowry is so underrated. People look at traditional stats like steals but never look at forced turnovers where he is one of the best. Plus his smart playmaking and tenacity make him really good even if stats don't show it perfectly.
I never really looked into Lowry. Ever. But I find it oddly inspiring how he uses his body and intelligence to make up for his lack of height (it's odd because l was a 6'4" noodle back when I played). I think this is a player more people should highlight for people looking to play bball beyond high school. There are more Lowrys in the world than Kevin Durants or LeBrons, and watching Lowry play might help them learn how to use their advantages.
Lowry so underrated
Can you please make a video about passing and court vision
U need to do one of these videos on legend players, and at the end u can say if they are at a hall of fame level or maybe top 10 player all-time level.
Thankyou Toronto for this man, he’s a wizard on the court. As a heat fan we appreciate him greatly
