Marcus Smart - Lockdown
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 11 окт 2024
- If you haven't already noticed, Marcus Smart is as determined and dogged a defender as there has been in this league. He and Avery Bradley just make life miserable on the perimeter. He's tenacious, tireless and absolutely impossible to screen. Defense isn't just about steals and blocks so pay close attention to his ball denial, active hands, solid footwork and savvy to get around screens, and his ability to beat a guy to a spot. It was a pleasure to make this and I'm looking forward to watching Smart for years to come.
Obviously I couldn't capture all of his terrific work on the defensive end, even when you account for the fact that he's a rookie, so I did what I could with what was available. I do apologize for the sudden drops in quality and the fluctuating audio.

His defense is sick..dude is built like a tank.
Smart and Bradley are a nightmare on the defensive end
Hey Dez you and Marcus both went to Oklahoma State :D
were now
Thats some Smart defense.
***** Ba-dum-tss
There are hall of fame players who couldn't put together a 10 minute defensive highlight reel, this is just from Smart's rookie year.
Him and Avery Bradley guarding up on the perimeter is mad. Lockdown tho
Beautiful to watch.
He has the total package on defense- IQ, hustle, toughness, footwork, quick hands, length. Should win multiple All-Defense awards in his career. If the offense gets anywhere close? Celtics got an all-star.
The scary part for the rest of the league is that he is only 21. So he's still got 3 or 4 more years before he hits his physical prime. In other words he's only going to get better for the next 3 or 4 years. His ceiling is ridiculously high right now.
+Cory Palmer TOTALLY, agree, i just LOVE watching players who shine because of their defense, its just really special to be a defensive player who shines above the rest, you see offense everywhere, dunkers, 3pt shooters, yea yea, almost everyone can do that, but really, there are very few players who shine because of their defense, and i find the people who do VERY, fun to watch, and i have so much respect for them, i would watch the celtics even though am not particularly a fan, JUST, to watch this guy play defense, and that says A LOT.
+Cory Palmer reminds me of a stronger version of Gary Payton
he's going to be something else for the celtics... can't wait!
Well he’s average still
@@devontepowell2255 If your definition of average is being named to All Nba Defensive 1st team then yeah he's still average.
Tony Allen and Marcus Smart both went to Oklahoma State, they teach really physical and tough defense :D
+Mason Topping Both drafted by Celtics too lol
Never knew Tony Allen went to Oklahoma State
Also Dennis Rodman, although he went to SE Oklahoma State. Still Oklahoma-style defense is the toughest there is in basketball.
Hey great vid. I love watching defense like this, and your right, it's not just about steals and blocks, but footwork footwork as well. That being said, can u please make an iman shumpert vid like this?!
Smart was the best defender on the team the moment he stepped on the floor, and that's not a sleight to Avery Bradley. Physical man defender , great anticipatory skills, plays the passing lanes well, and can play help defense from one pass away and still recover back to his defender. He's special on the defensive end
He is so underrated at defending. I was watching the boston-knicks game the other night and they had smart defending Porzingis!
During the playoffs smart was the only man to stop milsap
Still, there are a lot of obvious fouls that aren’t called
Smart - Bradley - Crowder are the defensive anchors and are the players who get everyone else's intensity up. If the Celtics sign DeAndre... You better watch out
+Nikola Vucevic We didn't get DeAndre but we got shotblockers in Amir and Mickey.
+Roldan Celestino agree Mickey out of LSU looks like a real potential steal Ainge did well that draft
I love this.
Goat
His frigging feet are unbelievable. He's like a machine.
You so clutch for this one, my fav rookie
I love this video. Superficial "fans" fail to appreciate a player's defensive capabilities.
I get more excited about smarts defense than i do about any other player doing anything
And here I thought they was in rebuild mode, #3 in the Eastern Confrence.
GOAT lockdown defender
2:04 Garrett gave him a free lapdance for his trouble
Man, this guy just phases through picks.
Maukus smauwt!!!!!
Time to post another one of these he is outrageous this season also
This is textbook o n-ball D. Feet sliding, hands up, controlling the direction of the ballhandler.
Sensational
He reminds me of artests defense
I was thinking that too :)
A lot like it , just in guard form (:
🔥
Great highlight vid!
Sick player!
He'd be a hell of an asset in the west with all those great pgs
Amazing defense
Textbook!!!
The Backcourt Put Everyone On Clamps
3:38 the Smart Bradley Crowder defense there. Their 3 defensive stopper. LOL
beast! i hope you make another Smart video for next season :D
He's really good at not getting called for a foul.
Celtics got a feisty defensive back court... Love it. They must draft montrell harrel
dude shouldve included more clips where he spins around screens. hes like jackie chan of getting over screens. great vid tho this kid going to be gooood
Subscribed nice video and channel!
wow,he had gard Daron before,didn‘t know he play in league that long.
love this guy - guard with his combination of size, physicality, length and speed are pretty rare
Awesome mix. Do a Joakim Noah hustle mix next!
1:00 1:30 1:39
Reminds me of MWP!!
8:15 Sullinger probably like what the hell just happened.
smart's a PG who can legitimately lockdown 3 positions. how often do you see that? if his offense ever comes around, look out.
watching highlights like this makes me want to play better defense. I mean i am only 5 9' but you would be surprised if you put the effort in then you can really get things done on that side of the court. for example i managed to get 5 blocks and 3 steals in game just by putting in 100 per cent.
this nigga Said Per cent im done
+Jass Naj lmao😂
Nice Channel
Wow
He a great hustle guy. Like demarre Carroll but with great perimeter defense
I am not even joking If Lakers had Marcus Smart I would make then Favoutites to win back to back Titles. The only player who can lock down on the perimeter without fouling & powerful enough to guard isos and take away step backs!!! He usually fouls reching inside the paint againt bigs.
What can I say... he gives a new meaning to playing SMART defense.... Lmao... (Cheezy I know)
Gotta do dillion brooks bro
Not sure if he's a PG or not, but the Lakers should definitely look to pick him up for next season, as well as strong PF
How exactly would the lakers pick him up next season?
Buy out his contract..?
Why would the Celtics buyout the contract of the guy they just drafted 6th overall?
Kacey Y. lol, nigga put the spliff down
What the?!
Boston has some real good defenders.
Imagine if we still had avery bradley
Great Work! Can you do Iman Shumpter?
Could you make one for Jae Crowder or Amir Johnson or are they not good enough defenders?
Matt Mulcahy I didn't say that Jae and Amir are amazing defenders I was asking if they were good enough defenders to make a 10 minute highlight reel of amazing defensive plays..
we def need a video of crowder. his defense on lebron is fantastic.
I was telling everybody he was nice on both ends should have been top 3
kinda frustrated that hes doing all this flopping, now hes losing his reputation of an elite defender, and gaining one as a flopper.
It's frustrating the hell outta me too. He used to not do that but idk why he does that now cause I don't wanna have to lose respect for him
A Traitor In Our Lands Flops win games. As a Celtic fan I want him to keep it up, he almost always gets the call. He obviously doesnt care about it hurting his rep, why should we?
L
The Dream Merchant how
IT4 MVP how what?
Can You Do kawhi Leonard?
Eric Martinez It's in the works
Corona virus lockdown😪
John Wall eventually ?
I love his defense, really I do. But that's totally a travel sliding with the ball like that at 1:00.
+Stephen Sunday L
Nope. To travel, your feet need to establish position then take 2 steps. People dive for balls like that all the time.
If he didn't jack up so many low percentage 3s, he'd be a starter.
This comment is still relevant today.
Don’t need him to be a starter now. We need his defense for the 2nd team
well he is a starter now
2:52 That cursor...
KLAY THOMPSON DEFENSE NEXT!!!!!
MrPranker247 I've been working on that for a little while. You'll see it eventually
Can you do Victor Oladipo?
GRIDSALEENS7 already done. ruclips.net/video/dFXEg7xcOhI/видео.html
Evin Gualberto Thanks man.
If they get Kawhi.... Dominant D
Tony Allen in #36
when football players play basketball defense is easier
that pump fake 3:15
Right, like he could actually make it from there
He's going to be a good one just needs to work on his shooting reminds me of the glove Gary payton
This year his shooting definetely improved
The fuck you mean his shooting has improved this year??? He's a rookie.
Michael C I think he was talking about Smart as a player overall, not just an NBA player. Smart definitely is better at shooting than expected when he was drafted.
Michael C His shooting got better as the season progressed
I was hoping he wouldn't struggle on offense in the NBA but he did a good job . I don't think his number reflect the influence he had on the game just has a rookie
thats some "smart" defense
Show me Marcus Smart vs Kyrie or Steph Curry. Not vs ballhandling scrubs as seen here.
raredreamfootage Lol ballhandling scrubs? You mean like Deron Williams, one of the greatest ball handlers of all time? Or like Harden? John Wall? Kyle Lowry?
Dude they don't have the ball on a string like Kyrie or Steph. Completely different level. Harden uses step backs and side steps mostly. John Wall is mostly speed especially in transition.
He did lockdown Kyrie in the playoffs he struggled all series
raredreamfootage If you watched the games you would know Avery is the one who guards those players because he's a faster guard, Smart guards the bigger/stronger guards. Smart defended Klay when the C's played the Warriors.
Hater.....
