@@justinholland6132as a teacher who is skinny and quite tall in my country
I see this as an absolute win
hahaha
Hahahaha 😂

Props to the coach behind KD for having the tablet ready
KD ask for it for sure before bol goes back on the bench
Coach knew to let KD cook
Jesus loves you
For real
PEACE TO KEVIN FOR HELPING!
KD mentoring someone like Bol Bol is deadly. Bol is a very raw product with high potential, if he has someone like KD teaching him stuff - especially considering how similar their body types are - it could give Bol a leap he needs
facts and it looks like he listening too cant teach if the student is not willing to learn dope on both parts
All he needs is some gems frm kd
It’s crazy how slow Bol Bol improves. As someone who watched Bol Bol on the Magic, he’s just bad when he was on the floor. People hating him also need to understand that he was a low second round pick with a ceiling of being a good role player which matches everything he’s shown so far
@@mayfort8573 improves in the actual games. Maybe he is better then we thought and his biggest problem is small time in real games that put too much stress on him. I don't actually watch how Bol Bol played earlier but i saw what small time in game can do with player's mental. He will be ok. Not Wemby-level okay but okay.
KD is the only person he'll listen to
The World loves Bol Bol. Everybody want to see this guy succeed.
i dont.
You suck @@straightlead8
@@patrikkarlsson9523☝️🖖🤓
no clue why that man has so many haters
Saw him live in a g league game. Was very excited to see him in the league. I think Bol Bol is underachieving and in large part that is his fault. Hopefully veteran leadership can show him the way.
love KD taking a more senior role in the suns
Exactly
I mean bro is 35 lmfao
Jesus loves you
bro is the senior fym
Lol he did it with the nets too. Cam Thomas worked out with KD all the time
This is Bol's 5th season... blows my mind how no coach or player pointed out basic stuff like this
This has been the main problem with Bol. Ppl love to talk about potential but until someone is willing to invest in him, that won't show. The other teams didn't want to teach him, but KD does. Respect to KD here.
I mean should he really need kd to tell him this it’s basic defensive principles
@@fgmb1213you are the kind of team mate Bolbol has had over the last 4 years
Nah i don't believe no one ever told him that, he has been in the league for too long plus his father played in the NBA, he has got to know basic stuff like these. Sure he isn't given the opportunity to really develop, but myb he just simply doesn't have the IQ it takes
It's on Bol to take initiative and improve his game. No wonder the guy gets passed around from team to team like Mary Jane.
It’s nuts how immediate they can get video to improve/fix their game. Props to the videographer for having it ready, KD for initiating it and to Bol Bol for willing to listen. Who knows if Bol Bol would be able to get such valuable mentorship on another team.
they have multiple angles recording the games live.
if only they put all that tech to good use instead of giving refs unilateral and unchecked power to rig games
@@numbers93 fifa went through something like this. they introduced VAR, video assisted ref. kind of like how nba allows a challenge.
what we see in the nba probably facilitates illegal betting.
for both fifa and nba, its clear corruption.
"you have to show wemby who's the real bol bol"
-durant
xD They are both so bad their teams play better without them on the court.
@@coops1992wemby bad? Nah
@@coops1992 bol is even better than chet who scored 8 points numerous times😂 Wemby? Forget it!
@@coops1992you sound actually brain dead
@@coops1992 20 points 11 rebounds 3 blocks bad?
For me, BolBol have always been a diamond in the rough type of player. Highly disregarded due to the lack of mentoring from vets, but talent-wise, he's something to look forward too. Props to KD for this.
He was projected 4th in the draft before his injury. Kinda like MPJ he gonna be a great piece in the right system
Sorry his pops couldn't teach him before passing.
Then you're only looking at it from an athletics point of view. Severely lacking in skill and smarts. This is defending 101: how do defend someone smaller, and defending 001: how to defend (I mean really? You're slow to rotate, or you give hip checks since you're slow remaining sliding position, and you wonder why it's a foul?)
*to look forward to
It is great to see KD care and took the effort to mentor Bol, also good to see Bol listened and applied it with effect straight away.
KD over there doing the coaches job for him. How is it so deep into the season and Bol Bol is just starting to learn basic defensive techniques.
its pretty common knowledge to not have your hands down when contesting a drive and put em straight up, but sometimes in the heat of the game you forget important stuff too.
That’s also why he hasn’t gotten as many mins as fans would like. Gotta have the fundamentals down at least
@@fgmb1213 and probably has too much of an ego to try and absorb fundamentals and skills from the all nba talent he is surrounded by. Jokic, KD, Booker, Beal (Once upon a time)
This is exactly the problem with Bol Bol. How is this still a thing after multiple years in the league? I even feel his possessions in the 4th quarter arent much better, he still has his arm closest to the offensive player down for most of the drives.
@maartenvz the fact there's idiots out there saying he'd be as good if not better than wemby if he got the same minutes is ridiculous af. He's been in the league for about 5 years and still has to be taught the basics while wemby does all this naturally.
Jesus loves you
That was cool of KD to instruct the youngster!!
Lol, Bol Bol ran into both players, feet moving and bumped them. The last example of applying Durant's teaching Bol still had his right hand on the hip. At his height hands up and out covers more space and may affect the shot, or keeping close enough at his height the chance of a block is high. Can't wait to see this kid develop. He has so much enthusiasm, determination and potential.
Yeah. He ran into both players, drawing fouls *and not understanding what he did wrong*. He may have enthusiasm, determination, and potential, but held back by introspection and intelligence. This is 5 years of professional basketbal and he still doesn't know he needs to slide instead of turn his hips and lose his defensive position.
What he needs to do is learning to contact partially with the hips and not drop his hands below his waist in the paint. They should be ready to explode upwards, as it's much easier to maneuver around an opponents fully extended arms. If he likes to hand one arm lower perhaps he could hover an arm/hand over a players point of release and threaten there while having 1 hand up. Dude looks like a novice out there.
That was exactly what I was saying...He's still hand checking on defense immediately after KD showed and told him the issue is....Old habits die hard I guess!
@@cptfwiffo The issue was he would initiate contact using his body instead of just going straight up. People love talking about handchecking but that made playing defense easier. It's much tougher to play defense and takes more skill today because you need to rely on footwork, agility, IQ to use your body to send a defender a specific way and also remember to never jump towards or away from your man, always go straight up and only extend your hand towards the offense if you're sure you won't make contact with your body, arm or hand as a result as extending your arm can also alter the position of your body in the air. It's why Tim Duncan is easily the greatest big man defender and arguably the best defender ever.
I love Bol Bol... I remember watching his dad play and it warms my heart to see him I the league.
Slim reaper… is a … low key… leader … LET GO SUNS
And they say KD isn’t a leader.. we have another false narrative by the Media/Haters
Years of him leading no teams and never stepping up into the leader role suddenly is a false narrative because he gave some pointers to a younger teammate? Makes sense
Being the BEST player on a TEAM in a TEAM Sports does automatically makes you a LEADER are gives you leadership QUALITY. I was a HONOR role student at all the LEVELS of my EDUCATION passage. I was not one day in my LIFE a PREFECT. The most of the BEST Soccer PLAYERS are not the LEADERS are Captains of their TEAMS . In the NFL the BEST are not necessarily the Captains. So why is it this NARRATIVE was created by the MEDIA about, and against KD, while you IDIOTS accepted this NARRATIVE.@@raminnazari9811
@raminnazari9811 what are you talking about, you've obviously never watched a kd game.
@@raminnazari9811 It's a false narrative because it's a baseless claim. And it's more of an opinion than fact. Y'all don't even know what a leader is to say that KD isn't one.
hot takes get clicks. This fact is really making coverage of everything extremely annoying. Politics, sports, gaming, music - there's so many clickbait-toxic stories that distort opinions in search of $. Keep everyone mad all the time seems to be the strategy. Just exhausting!
This video had my full attention. Good vid man. Love seeing KD coach up the kids 😂
Love seeing good teamwork. This is what’s it all about!
Doing what your father did, without your father is tuff! Shout out The Bols man, coming from a wiz fan. Kd not gatekeeping is always refreshing to see in the pro, even if its understandable...
Hey Dan. Thats an awesome video you did. Something that not any of us has seen and you did it beautifully. Well done!
Love this duo
Amazing! Love this attention to detail. Using technology in a great way!!
Bol Bol is a good pick up. Other teams were dumb not to grab him for cheap.
im glad he found someone that actually see the game the Way ye Does .!! Lessss go #Reaper
Wholesome moment.
Always love a good defensive breakdown. 👍🏾
It's so good watching players that still want to learn there are quite a few player that wouldn't have listened or just shrug it off
It’s about time bol bol gets some love. He deserves just as much as wemby
mentorship is so cool to see
Love seeing this
Lovely video. Very educative.
Wow that's amazing
Great stuff
Love this for both Bol and KD. 🐐
Not a big KD fan. I don't dislike him, but seeing him mentor a young player on the bench with similarities to himself as far as build definitely deserves a nod. The Suns are in my teams conference, but I still like this sportsman ship.
Loved the video great job keep bringing us the heat
this was a really good video
The wisdom of Kevin💪🏿👋🏿✊🏿
Nice to see Bol finally get some support
Brotherly love
Im happy bol bol is finally starting to get more playing time.
Great video.
I'm a nuggets fan and it's fun seeing bol bol get minutes, improving and getting recognition from putting in the work
📌Great advice🏀👋🏽
Great breakdown
I LOVE THIS !
The league has him massively under trained 5 seasons in. We want the best for the kid. Hopefully KD can move his maturation process along. Waiting on Bols breakout 7th season in the making !
Good Vid!
People keep talking about hype and all that but it is these defensive iq issues plus his highlight hunting in his first years that had coaches benching him. He needed to resolve both of those, and that takes investment on both the organization and him. Thankfully, the bumping around on teams has tempered his ego for the most part, but that left the iq part, which I feel the nba teams dropped the ball on. Everybody expects a ready made freak nowadays (like a Wemby or Chet) and are too impatient to teach the kid fundamentals. KD is doing just that and I hope Bol continues to soak up all of that advice, even after KD retires.
Hell yeah! I love the video! We never see Durant being a mentor. Or a leader!
some shit aint for the cameras
Great vid. No bs.
Awesome of Durant to share on the floor training, guys like Durant are so cerebral when it comes to basketball they could probably tell you every players flaws from memory and how to fix them
That's dope. leadership
Good video bro
It’s not easy to make in game adjustments like that. Bol Bol must be a quick study
which makes you wonder what was happening on all his previous teams
Durant is A KING for that “each 1 teach 1.
I love this shit please keep going
craziest thing about this footage is seeing bol bol showing emotion
Bol Bol moves really well for being so tall. Dude has those long strides to make up ground.
This is what this kid needs. A star who will dedicate himself to this kid & really push him. Great job KD...
This all we wanted for bol 💪🏾
Yea bol bol literally playing just like Durant now love how it’s loooking to🔥👌🏾
I think it's really cool that they had an iPad with the game open at the ready so kd could show bol bol what he meant more clearly
love it
insane how they have that footage so fast
Thank God they playing Bol
he has made improvement he didnt show before.....im pulling for him
🔥🔥🔥
Iron sharpens Iron salute to KD and Bol Bol
When that man is trying to teach you something that will make you better you listen. 💪
Great stuff from KD, the what Bol moves on the defensive end shows that his early coaches didn’t instil the fundamentals.
Bol listen to that SUPERSONIC.
🗣️ I'm rooting for you Bol Bol!
Not a suns fan but it's good to see Bol Bol thriving
Bol should study Wemby's game. Wemby defends really smart, almost baiting his man to shoot by giving them space then just swatting the ball away. With Bol's length and athleticism he can do just that.
Impressive
Bolbol doesn't even know how to play his own position if he needs tips like these bro
Everybody gets coached. Most NBA players don’t box/block out. You learn this at 8 years old. This why so many put backs happen.
He was just made better after being coached. You can't deny that he's natural.
He a new breed his development gon be slow
And people still talking about he has potential to unlock. He’s not good at center and IS NOT NEEDED TO BE A DRIBBLER. Get in the paint on both offence and defence.
Wow that's the face of a listener ❤❤
Bro....I've always believed in BOL BOL since he started for the Magic. With the right mentoring he will become a great asset for a team. And we're now seeing it unfold.
You don't take the time to teach that unless you love the game. Leaders that love the game will teach like that. It's such a cool experience. Sports is probably the field where at a certain point it makes more sense to coach your replacement up to get you more rest or one last contract.
Just need the right type of person to teach him how to walk and when he does its going be a nice for the suns. I like this, we want to see bol bol shine.
He's got the body and could be successful like Wembanyama, but he needs the passion and a strong mentorship from a good teacher. Maybe KD can be that person he needs.
He’s gonna be solid.
Turning up pointers from the right one... Listen up
bol bol 💙
🔥
I'm proud of Kevin for mentoring Bol Bol.
It actually looked like he was telling him to place his hand on his back or simply have it behind so he can be reactive(probably because of his reach advantage) +edit Just saw the end of the video where KD was saying his advice was related to their similar build so that goes to the reach advantage point
winner like to see other win . KD good job bro

This is real leadership.
Durant's mentorship of young players (including guys from other teams) is what I love most about him. This is what LeBron should have been doing the past few years.
Easy Money Teacher KD mentoring bol is crazy good! Bol Bol and Taco are my two fav young guns who I want to watch make teams and thrive!
I’m pulling for Bol.
0:36 I was waiting for Bol Bol to come down from his jump, but then realized he wasn't even jumping lol. Jesus christ that man tall
This is the leader KD needed to be but he was always with super teams that had egos or vets. Put a young guy or two around em and maybe he can be a better leader. Love kd stwpping up and love bol taking critique and implementing what he learned immediately
Yeah bol bol really benefits. Hopefully bol can find a coach that can guide hime well like kd
Now I understand why KD and Draymond got a love quarrel back then, KD trying to teach Draymond how to shoot.
Coach Kd💪💪
Mark Jackson: "hand down, man down"
Bol bol will be a beast..just watch😂
Bol should also look into how Wemby defends attackers to the rim. He doesn't face them up to block but defends from behind, therefore little to no fouls called on defense.
U have to be kidding me, Spurs literally play better without Wembanyama on court and he is already hurt in his rookie season. The most overrated player ever. ''Defend attackers to the rim'' he should learn that himself after what Alperen Sengun did to him.
even the uploader didn't realize thats the advice being given
both Sabonis and Sengun have cooked Wembanyama...Good players are outsmarting his physical length
