bro I remember watching chase hoop I’ve always heard stories abt him being good in volleyball but to represent the country good?!!! that’s crazy time flying omg hope he wins us Gold !
Shows what having a plus nba athleticism can do
As a nba fan and volleyball player for over 20 years, I love this ❤ 🔥
The one thing I wish they would have said is that this sport deserves attention outside of just the Olympics every 4 years. There is interesting and high level athleticism happing every year and they are not being compensated like many other professional sports. if you tune and love watching stick around and check it out other years too.
Lezzz go! Great comment
The questions regarding how or why Chase was able to take 12 years off of volleyball and comeback and play...people need to understand he was a special player #1 and he also continued to play some beach vb in his bball off-seasons. He was never "mid" at beach vb he was always a phenomenal talent not just physically but skill wise he was super coordinated and very clean in his skill set. Great guy too. GO CHASE GO USA!!
I was just in Hermosa Beach over the July 4th holiday and there were a ton of Budinger and Evans posters all around the area. Very cool to see the local support!
13:05 Channing says "that's tight!". I feel like people don't say that anymore but I love that he's bringin it back!
Incredible story. I remember CHASE bring CO MVP of the Mcdonald’s All American game with KD.
Chase Budinger is goated so hyped for him
His story is so remarkable ❤️ 💖 am watching him now in Paris
Great interview with insightful questions! Go Chase and Miles!
Chase was one of those high potential guys who never worked out unfortunately. I guess volleyball was always the first passion as far as sports. Makes sense and I'm glad he's doing well
He had a successful NBA career made millions
There was also a Lakers bench player, mark McNamara that played professional volleyball
Lesss go! I have a ton of beach matches of Chase and Miles on my beach volleyball fan channel if anyone is interested to see his matches from California over the last two years
Love this for AVP! Can’t wait to get back out there
Westbrook would make an absolutely beastly libero.
he has the motor and athleticism but have you seen his fine hand skills sometimes when shooting or passing leading to turnovers, those are even more important to have perfected in a skill sport like volleyball.
I’d put him as a hitter. With his athleticism, he’d be a great back line hitter
@@serfantasystatsguru7403Fair point. I played OH, but to the video’s point 2 starters on my team also played basketballball (MB and libero).
I remember our libero talking about receiving like rebounding, but the latter def takes less fine motor control.
(This was D3 so not exactly top-tier. 😂)
Awesome episode.
Great crossover episode! More cross-athlete ex-NBA vibes please
This is a great conversation all great questions!!! You have to go and watch men’s and women’s gymnastics
This is dope. Little rough start. But great recovery. 😂😂
"Let your taco meat hang" is insane
19:20 I disagree an elite athlete is an elite athlete and take a 30 year old pro from bb or football and he trains in a new sport full time 4-6 years I think an athlete can rise to competitive elite ranks for sure
The thumbnail has a picture of Skylar Del Sol 😆😆
Pacers legend
Need to hear a Wilbur & Wilma shoutout
The look of excitement on their faces when Richard started talking about the opening ceremonies was great
This clown really said he was too tall to play volleyball. Wow. Great commentary
He going to get so much 🐈 in that village
Well...
Bear down 🐻 ⬇️
They should’ve asked how they train their bodies. Bet it’s very different from basketball players.
Bonjour à tous en France de San Francisco, Californie, États-Unis. Allez-vous apprendre le français tout en restant en France ? 🇫🇷🇺🇸
I didn’t know chase was left handed
He’s of that lefty group? I was wondering the whole interview
Basketball players most athletic, football players have a gladiator mentality. Majority of today’s basketball players aren’t built that way because of how the game is played.
If you consider athetisism being tall and jumping high, having good hand eye. Other sports also require crazy athletisism, but just a different type of athleticism. The fitness required in modern soccer for example is absolutely insane.
wish chase had a better partner than this youth volleyball coach that cant even get a serve over the damn net.
