Another great video. Love these point breakdowns. Most instruction videos from other people are too long, but yours are so information-dense that they could be even longer. I'd be interested to hear comments on footwork and swing technique too
Love love love the high level point breakdowns. My pickle IQ and strategy awareness just jumped up tremendously just from watching this, please do more of these!!!
I agree with all the others, more breakdown videos. I liked hearing about the bounce concept, and would love to hear any thoughts on placement options along with likely implications for followup shots.
Excellent breakdown at slow speed given how fast the pro level is. I studied the footwork as that's one of my challenges. For the team in black they did textbook split steps for balance and stability. Great tip also on number 1 goal when on defense. Thank you the video and straightforward explanation.
So nice to see the point in slow motion with the highlighted ‘offense’ and ‘defense.’ In real time I don’t see half of what you pointed out. Thanks so much for the great lesson!
This was by far the singular most helpful video I have ever watched about pickleball. I would love more videos breaking down the offense/defense/neutral concept on other segments of pro matches. I truly didn’t know any of this, and to say it blew my mind is an understatement. More please!!
I like the breakdown of Offense/Defense/Neutral. Lastly I used you link to purchase a Spinshot Player Machine. Tim was really helpful. If you come up with other drills, I'd love to see them. Your Roll Volley and Creating a Point are both awesome 👍
Love this video! Strategy is key and yet is so subtle in pickleball, one foot back of the kitchen and you give up your position advantage. Great break Down 👍 !!!
This was a very thorough and well timed breakdown. I find your content to be helpful, well thought out and explained, and paced well. You speak clearly and with good pace without breezing through too quickly or moving too slowly. Thanks for the high quality and insightful pickleball content. It is helful for me and I also enjoy sharing it with fellow picklers.
Another Austin resident. Quickly becoming the "MECA" for Pickleball. Realestate prices are appealing for sure. Weather is full of surprises. Your breakdowns are helpful.
John. Your comments are exceptionally helpful as you break things down into defense and offense and neutral. Loved/learned from comment ‘on defense, have to get it to bounce to get back to neutral or offense v “. I’ll remember that
Loved your comment about getting the ball to bounce when on defense!! Too often I try to hit a hero shot when pulled out of position and end up eating the smash by my opponents so will definitely incorporate this pickle-wisdom in my next match. Thank you - great video and explanations!! Good luck with your move to TX!
That was incredibly informative. I got a lot out of it and yes, more please. You're really good at explaining things. I am going to watch this a bunch of times to try to really understand all that you're bringing out about the shot selection and court positioning. Thank you very much and I hope your move went smoothly.
John, I found this video so helpful. Stating that you should try to make the ball bounce when you are on defense was so helpful. I never heard any pro mention that before. I love the way you explain what to do, how, and why. Great video.
Just getting started in the game, and no where near at this level, but this slo-mo breakdown is super helpful. So much of the game is training your brain how to think…really how to react…and this walkthrough is very helpful. Thank you!
Yes, would like to see some more. Also I think the same kind of analysis on 3.5-4.0 plays would be helpful since many of us are at that level and we do play differently than the pros.
Hope your move to Austin was painless. For the best BBQ in TX try either of the 2 County Line restaurants - an Austin tradition! Also, Great idea to include "Offense" and Defense" graphics in your breakdown videos. They show how frequently and quickly the advantage is gained and lost in the blink of an eye. Also, your narrative explains possibly le alternative shot selections for the changing player positions. Great video. Thank you.
Really like the point breakdowns. I can see that I am not in the correct place on the court during my rallies. I would like to see more of this. Thank you.
Just WOW! This is an eyeopener. Paired with the previous video, they are absolute gems. Thank you and keep doing what you're doing. Because of you, we bought a SpinShot and we love it. Good luck to you and your lot in Austin and may the back half of your PB season be full of success. ✌️❤️🙂
Loved the play by play descriptions. Helped me really realize what was good and bad. I saw you play at the Billie Jean King Stadium recently. It was my first tournament as a spectator. Just started to play
This is an excellent breakdown, SO informative. I’ve enjoyed your other videos, but this is the one that made me hit the subscribe button! As Oliver Twist said, “More, please!”
AHHHH... we were WONDERING what was up!!! Moving to "Free USA" - CONGRATULATIONS and I think you're going to be picked up at the high-level of MLP and look forward to seeing you play - what will you be doing with the studio??? (New location?) Always look forward to your videos and wish you and your family the greatest of Blessings in this next chapter for all of you - we're excited for you and can't wait to join you in the journey!!!
This break down was awesome. I liked the offense, defense, neutral toggle as the point progressed. This kind of content is great for intermediate players (4.0/4.5) looking to move towards advanced levels. That category of content is largely missing amongst the sea of beginner videos.

Amazing point breakdown! Yes please, more videos such as these. It is great that you pause the slow-mo while narrating. Thank you so much!
Love this type of breakdown. As a developing player it speaks volumes to me as you describe real play in slo-mo. Thanks.
Point breakdowns are the BEST!!!
I love your channel, and I tell all my PICKLEBALL friends to subscribe!!!!!

Thanks John I definitely like your breakdown videos. They really help me understand what type of shots I should hit in a game play scenario.
I agree with all the others, more breakdown videos. I liked hearing about the bounce concept, and would love to hear any thoughts on placement options along with likely implications for followup shots.
Best format, pace, and clarity I have ever seen-please keep it coming!!🎉

Strategy is key and yet is so subtle in pickleball, one foot back of the kitchen and you give up your position advantage.
Great break Down 👍 !!!
Yes ,do more like this.
It’s not too long like others I’ve seen. Also, adding instructions like “ getting the ball to bounce “ is what people need.
glad it is helpful! i try to make the lessons easy to understand and take with you to the courts

Fantastic. Again, proving why this channel is the best teaching content in the game.
That was an excellent breakdown.Love the slow motion description and learned to always let it bounce when in defensive mode. Thank you.
Good luck in Austin I have a cousin and a sister there.
