    I'm glad you brought up his upfake. I think when all is said and done, that's going to be his signature move. The reason being a combination of:
    His upfake is just his natural shooting motion
    His hands are so large that he can make a split second decision on whether to shoot it over the top, or drive if the defender sells out to try and block (which they have to given his height and his release point on his shot)
    He's so long that if he does drive he's in the paint so quickly the defense has a very hard time adjusting, and the Spurs are likely getting a 75+% 2PA up.

    • @nandorgyongyosi698
      @nandorgyongyosi698 52 минуты назад +2

      Good observation. That upfake is definitely a game-changer. I noticed that most defenders have to jump very early if they want to alter his shot. And because he has the IQ, with 1 defender already in the air, he can take advantage.
