They don’t need to play all 82 games. 58 games is suffice. Any more than that, then the problem is more to the GM’s ability to create a good team. If your team can’t make the playoffs by 58 games, then your team is trash. There’s no need to play more games, it’s not worth it. Let the other players in your bench play.

I’ve BEEN talking about him doing this since I saw it, idk why this clip is so underrated it was easily one of the most impressive things I’ve seen him do all pre season
Impressive but dangerous. As a defender, you need to be careful where you put your head because if an offensive player hits you on "accident" there will be no foul called on them. In this clip, Victors head is right by the offensive players shoe. A veteran will take that opprotunity 9/10 to launch a kick to injure their opponent.
@@karna6634 im saying there is a reason people dont do these crazy moves on defense. Its because you can put your head in a dangerous position where the offensive player can take advantage and make "accidental" contact
Jimmy never fails to impress with his insights. The amount of research, analysis and care he puts into his videos are simply off the charts (pun very much intended). One of his greatest videos yet. We truly are in the best timeline, to experience peak-Jimmy.
It’s kinda crazy how we started with big men dominating the league from the start for decades, moved out to the perimeter slowly through wing players and guards, and then we went back to big men dominating the post for a bit until the 3 point revolution came into full effect, and now the big man renaissance is giving us mutants and unicorns that can do literally anything out there
Bro I love for Jxmmy uploads. The genuine excitement and planning behind watching your videos is crazy. I just prepped a whole joint and meal around watching your video hahaha. Smoked , and then ate while I enjoyed this masterpiece
i feel like wingspan has also has an important part in this revolution, one thing of this multi positional archytype is that many of these 6'5, 6'6 players who can play the 1 to maybe even the 4 all have ridiculously long wingspans, well over 7ft most of the time
I agree. When I looked up NBA wingspans, it appeared to me that wingspan might even be more important than raw height, once you meet the minimum height requirements.
I've watched many many of your videos and have always watched to the very end of every one. I love how you are able to combine a compelling story with revealing statistics in such an engaging way. You are the only sports commentator I subscribe to - so I guess I just want to say I'm a fan - and thank-you.
Jimmy, absolute respect bro. I work in VC and this video just felt like I am reading a market roadmap memo from Bessemer or Sequoia but for basketball. Incredible work!

Great video man been a subscriber since you were at like 300k and i am always inspired by the dedication you put into your shit. I know it’s not easy to come up with video ideas that can meet your quality baseline but this one hits and I appreciate you as a basketball creator thank you Jimmy!
Great video brother. Wemby is the only person in the world that can make that steal in the first clip. I really hope he and Chet stay healthy, they are both extremely entertaining, and I think they are going to change the game for the better.
As usually - incredible topic and research. You set yourself apart from all other NBA/basketball related channels with facts and logic not just scratch the surface opinions or discussions of trades. You are a true student of the game!
I don’t even watch nba but the things you do analysis on and the way you do stats is so interesting. You making math interesting… I can’t stop watching. keep up the good work.
The thing is….. taller players are now more required to be more skilled than ever before. Dirk, KG, and Hakeem really changed the game of what a Center/PF can do.
I always click when I see your notice…. Always great videos (it’s like writing a check to yourself at this point).. congrats on all the success of the channel
this is one of the best basketball vids i’ve ever seen. i’ve been watching you for like 4-5 years now, and both you and the depths of your analysis keep progressing. so fire to see.
As a kid in the mid to late 90s, I thought Alonzo Mourning was a "tiny" center at 6'8". I was under the impression that an elite center had to be at least 7' tall and was wondering how Zo was still very good. You had legends like Patrick Ewing, Hakeem Olajuwon, Dikembe Mutombo, David Robinson and Shaq, and other starters were guys like Luc Longley, Shawn Bradley, Greg Ostertag, Rik Smits and Arvydas Sabonis. On the other hand, it was almost inconceivable to me how a guy like Dirk could be playing small forward, he seemed way too tall. 😅
wow, man. Forget all the time spent researching, the editing time on this must have been insane! I'm not even talking about all the motion graphs, but just the small details that are in every single shot. For example, when you highlight the players that you're talking about in color and then leave the other players in black and white. Or when you add all the height reference images, the text over each player, etc. I appreciate all the hard work you put into the channel! You've really come a long way and your quality is truly increasing with each video.
I think although Curry single handedly changed the league to play small, but once the bigs have adjusted, they possess so much more potential on the basketball court. In the end, Curry officially weaponized 3 pointers, but it will probably come around and benefit those talented 7 footers the most. I love the small line up and opened up attack range, but sadly after Curry retires, the league will inevitably go back to big boi's hands. And we are seeing it happening right now.
Unfortunately, the 7's that can shoot still have lower percentages than traditional shooting guards. Their versatility is increasing, but teams still need 3 point specialists to compete. The best players regardless of size will always be outliers, but the average isn't changing.
@@T1Oracle Curry influenced bunch of teams to build around small players aka Dame & Trae & Ja etc, but they all failed to bring their teams to the top. So I'm predicting that the teams building around bigs like Jokic and Wemby will probably dominate the league after Curry retires.
Man Jimmy, your writing, stats, and delivery is perfection! You have a gift! I don't even watch basketball anymore but I watch all your videos. You are impressive.
One idea that comes to mind for me while watching, is that some of us probably take the older guys for granted and that they weren’t smart enough back then. The rules and styles were so different, they weren’t allowed to do these things back then like Jxmmy says. I’ve seen footage of Bob Cousy do a behind the back layup in practice, kinda like Curry has done without the crazy floater layup. It’s interesting to wonder what coulda happen, if those players from the early beginnings, weren’t forced to play such a strict game and be made to be specialist based on height.
I just happen to stumble upon this video on my feed but man, the quality and effort that goes in to ur videos are amazing sir, it aint much but you've earned yourself a new subscriber.
Mugsy was such a freaking cool player. Blows my mind that the NBA had a 5'3'' player who was actually...GOOD. His story is incredible. The defensive pest they called him cuz they couldn't even see him coming for the ball half the time.
hot take: with both offensive and defensive schemes evolving so much, scoring increase is not because defence back then was much better; but rather offence now got so much better
This guy is my new entertainment system. Always straight to the point, minimal to no clickbait, all real data, good NBA opinions, reasonable intro, great storytelling, good hook, captivating vids and just a whole lotta talent ✊
The more advanced mechanisms that are developed, the more i think Steph Curry is a monstruosity of a player. This is such a great video in itself but it was specially helpful for me because it made me able to concretize something that i have been thinking for a good chunk of time. It is insane how Curry, by his natural atributes plus the skills he owns, could be a great PG in the 80s, and at the same time he is the best "PG" now. @JxmyHighroller showed in a graph, the height of the players with most touches per game. In 2013/2014 Curry was 20th, when the average of players with most touches was basically his height. Now, when the primary ball handler inscreased by several inches, Curry actually went to 12th!!! The only other player with the same trajectory is Damian Lilliard. We can say that players like Ja Morant and Trae Young would probably follow the same trajectory, if they had been on the league since then. BUT what differentiates Curry from those 3 IS: At the same time he can average 28 on you during the playoffs, while giving you 6 assists, he can also be argued to be the best off-ball player of all time. So Curry manages to have the most touches of his team, while dropping 30 on you and being top 5 in PPG, WHILE being the best off-ball player. All of this to come back to what this video clarified for me. I have a personal criteria that i think to be usefull when analizing the greatest players that the league has ever had, and that criteria is the following: We should not only compare what players have given relativelly to their peers, or relativelly to their homologues on other eras; we should also compare how specific natural atributes and the game/skills of a specific player translates the tendency of the evolution of the game. Jimmy very well refered how Lebron James was a prototype player. The rule about the paint came at 2001. Lebron entered the league in 2003. The natural tendency of the game translates into what Lebron has ever been, a 6''9 force of nature, with tremendous versatily that, at his peak, played in both sides of the court. But Curry, manages to do all he does, while being at the other side of the spectrum. In a sense, if we can say the increased value and volume of distance shooting, and even how offensive strategies are organized, are a consequence of how Curry changed the game, by contrast, the consequences of that change forced the game to develop in a way that should have made Curry obsolete. And yet, you have primary ball handlers being 6,6/6,7 feet, yu have the game forcing the offensive schemes to focus on mismatches, while having Curry as a 6.3 doing literally all that you can do on offense. It truly is a sight to behold. I am sorry for the long comment, and thank you to those of you that cared to read it! All of you, have a good day!

scheme evolve with rules and players skills. skill have improved but rules have removed physical defense so its both, not just one thing at play
good job! nice analysis
Another absolutely fantastic video Jimmy!
Let’s just appreciate the time and effort Jxmy puts into his vids

Bruh I’m just trying to be supportive 😂😂
This guy is my new entertainment system.
Always straight to the point, minimal to no clickbait, all real data, good NBA opinions, reasonable intro, great storytelling, good hook, captivating vids and just a whole lotta talent ✊
This is just such a perfect video, I can't stand how good you are at this
If Wemby stay healthy he has the chance to be top 5 all time 🤫🔥
Top 1
No they don't lol I don't even think they will be top 40
Chet won't even Crack the top 85
I mean 75
That’s a Hot Take
That's absolutely scary. If Wemby and Chet stay healthy there's no doubt they're gonna be great if he stay consistent and healthy
I be having a bad day and then Jimmy releases a video, which makes everything better and I stop crying. 👍
This is an incredibly well done video. Great work man.
Idk if the NBA is getting bigger but I can confidently say Sabonis has gotten bigger because I remember him being 6’ 9” not too long ago lol
I've been watching Jimmy since he hit 100k subs have to say Jimmy never fails to disappoint us
You worded that incorrectly. Never failing to disappoint means he always disappoints
This episode was around the best ones since I’ve subsrubed to Jimmy’d channel. Amazing
Great video. I think you touched on some fantastic modern NBA questions that surround the league. Great ending. One of your best videos for sure
that’s absolutely terrifying. if Wemby and Chet stay healthy there’s no doubt they’re gonna be great if he stay consistent and healthy
Lmao just copied the top comment
This is currently my favorite RUclips channel. Every video is an absolute banger!

Just have to say- let’s all appreciate the time and energy jimmy puts into his videos!

What a great analysis, what a great video
the goat did it again. Amazing video as always
The more advanced mechanisms that are developed, the more i think Steph Curry is a monstruosity of a player.
This is such a great video in itself but it was specially helpful for me because it made me able to concretize something that i have been thinking for a good chunk of time.
It is insane how Curry, by his natural atributes plus the skills he owns, could be a great PG in the 80s, and at the same time he is the best "PG" now.
@JxmyHighroller showed in a graph, the height of the players with most touches per game. In 2013/2014 Curry was 20th, when the average of players with most touches was basically his height. Now, when the primary ball handler inscreased by several inches, Curry actually went to 12th!!!
The only other player with the same trajectory is Damian Lilliard.
We can say that players like Ja Morant and Trae Young would probably follow the same trajectory, if they had been on the league since then.
BUT what differentiates Curry from those 3 IS: At the same time he can average 28 on you during the playoffs, while giving you 6 assists, he can also be argued to be the best off-ball player of all time.
So Curry manages to have the most touches of his team, while dropping 30 on you and being top 5 in PPG, WHILE being the best off-ball player.
All of this to come back to what this video clarified for me. I have a personal criteria that i think to be usefull when analizing the greatest players that the league has ever had, and that criteria is the following:
We should not only compare what players have given relativelly to their peers, or relativelly to their homologues on other eras; we should also compare how specific natural atributes and the game/skills of a specific player translates the tendency of the evolution of the game.
Jimmy very well refered how Lebron James was a prototype player. The rule about the paint came at 2001. Lebron entered the league in 2003. The natural tendency of the game translates into what Lebron has ever been, a 6''9 force of nature, with tremendous versatily that, at his peak, played in both sides of the court.
But Curry, manages to do all he does, while being at the other side of the spectrum. In a sense, if we can say the increased value and volume of distance shooting, and even how offensive strategies are organized, are a consequence of how Curry changed the game, by contrast, the consequences of that change forced the game to develop in a way that should have made Curry obsolete. And yet, you have primary ball handlers being 6,6/6,7 feet, yu have the game forcing the offensive schemes to focus on mismatches, while having Curry as a 6.3 doing literally all that you can do on offense.
It truly is a sight to behold.
I am sorry for the long comment, and thank you to those of you that cared to read it!
All of you, have a good day!
