@@yevanasvetya5486 I believe you. I didn't think you meant it in a racist way. Was just saying some will see it that way because that's just what they do
I once heard that, in Japanese, the family name comes first. So, his actually ""individual"" name is Kawamura, and Yuki represents his family or region where he was born It's quite interesting. It represents the Asian Cosmovision: before you be yourself, you are part of something bigger. Does that make any sense?
@@lucasemanuel7518 Nah, Kawamura sounds like a Japanese family name. He's in America, that's why "Kawamura Yuki" isn't the arrangement of his name. You can search it up on Google.
@@lucasemanuel7518 That japanese philosophy is probably he's so good as a team player which then creates his own individual value. If he keeps up and be even better, i can definitely see his name being remembered in this decade and the next
He means his teammates who are out wide from the basket running through(cutting across) towards the basket. Basically his teammates are moving a lot especially behind defenders towards the basket because he’s unselfish and skilled and they know more often then not he’ll get them the ball and make it worth it.
His skill and speed are definitely amazing, but I admire how brave the way he charges to those giants. I'm pretty short guy and tower-like defenders always overwhelm me, can't shake that feeling off 😭
It feels like he uses his size to his advantage. Big guys think wow the small guy will try to outspeed me, so he obliges them, moves quickly to draw attention and keeps his eyes OPEN to find a passing lane
Unpopular opinion… rather than kuroko, this man reminds me of chiaki from ahiru no sora (such underrated basketball manga). Chiaki used to say something like “run to the open spot wherever it is and I’ll make the ball come to you” Yuki also reminds me of the MC in the manga, he is short and thought he will never be able to stand in the court but his mother said that there is a weapon for short person and that’s a three point shot.. really good manga such a pity it is really underrated
I agree, will definitely check out that manga. They have like the hinata shoyo-tobio kageyama dynamics (wing spiker - setter) esp in haikyuu volleyball season 1. Tobio sets the ball to shoyo to score a point. Not only that he has great sense of the game and spatial awareness of the game, players in the game and great ball control. For Yuki, ball control to pass and the no look pass. I remember all my favorite haikyuu moments. Yuki is amazing!
Sometimes when you don't have the luck of genes you learn to make do with the lemons you have. I hope his value is not overlooked when he assists. His story is so inspiring.
@@Hannari-xt6nr You would need to specify which one lol. These old geezers have conditioned themselves not to say anything sketchy towards black people. The only Asian guy on the court does not get the same courtesy I guess.
The thing I love about his play style is that’s it’s reminiscent of what Kobe and Michael Jordan loved about the game. They’ve always said they hated where basketball playmaking was going. Drive and pass. It’s boring and two dimensional. Tuki is like this all seeing eye, that can make the perfect play, which leaves a perfect gap in the defense for his teammates to get a shot off. It brings back some of that old magic Kobe and Michael loved, which centered around strategy and play making
I’ve known about his skills since he was in high school but never expected him to play in nba. I hear applause when he gets the ball. What about him attracts the audience?
Because of the speed he brings, or at least the illusion of speed. He looks like hes speeding through a slalom course on the mountain and the tall players are the flag posts 🚩🎿 🚩 😅
Because height is seen as a barrier to entry and he has the extraordinary skill to surpass this barrier. The amount of kids that get to high school basketball and give up because they're facing 6'4++ dudes is staggering... But Yuki found a way.
Idk why he draws so much attention from the D since Yuki doesn't really seem like a scoring threat, but the defence bites every time and he manages to find the open man
He is a pass 1st, 2nd, 3rd Point Guard. He know his role and he focuses on it. He's not jacking up +15 shots a game and assortment of air balls. Sad he is on limited minutes. They should play him more and give JA more rest.
kawamura is the Hidetoshi Nakata of Japanese basketball. Nakata is the 1st Japanese player paved road for European football nakamura paved Japanese and many Asian basketball player to challenge NBA
This is how basketball should look at its finest - instead of a game where you have 3 point goals dominating. I loved powerful centers, as well as guards that sped all around.
Although I have never heard of this basketball player, Kamamura,a point guard, but at 5 feet,8 inches tall,because of his height,weight and speed,it's these types of player's that can dominate both ends of the court,and he knows where everyone is and without looking, he'll kill the defense player's, but on the same token, his fellow player's know that expect a pass,that no one anticipated ,and he can add another assist number to his current amount, and when you have a player of that caliber, expect the unexpected, same thing with the NFL, to anticipate something coming out of the BLUES,WHERE THAT COME FROM??,and I like to watch the reactions from player's, because it tells a MILLION WORDS.
That's just fundamental genius selfless ball. When you looking to win and not looking to look good and pad your stats....you start doing this thing called team work and you start winning
There's an Asian basketball league where I grew up for kids from elementary through high school. People think Asians can't play ball but you'd be amazed to see what talnet they have.

it isnt just about baketball, this guys spatial awareness is off the charts.

He has the makings of a good CoD player

METAVISION!!!!! Yuki the egoist for basketball
Bro is a damn ninja, those awareness and precise throws.

You got a guy like that and it really opens up the court. The opposing team looks like they are standing still.
They end up looking like the teams that play the globetrotters! Hahaha!
Real life Kuroko
I was thinking the same thing!!!
frrrrrr
we had the same set of braincells
Nah, Kuroko is not meant to be seen or standout which is also the opposite of Yuki, also not a point guard
@@LaplaceDe 🤓☝️🤓☝️🤓☝️
It feels like he draws so much attention and when he got everyone attention the ball gone to the unnoticed player who ready to score
Yeah, almost every opponent in this clips too focused on him they forgot guarding his teammates. He somehow make blindspots
hmm literally kuroko when he use his Misdirection Overflow :D God i am such a nerd.
One of Yuki's advantages is that he dominates the low part of the game, tall players have many blind spots from 1.30 m down.
Yup, it helps him open things up for lops too, as he's attack low mid and high with passes.
YES!!! They can't reach down to him, being short is truly a gift in a tall game with the right techniques
Exactly my thought…. He’s also a fast runner.
This is a "find space, the ball will come to you" coach lesson personified
Yuki KNOWS basketball. He reminds me of Alex Caruso, an unselfish player who creates opportunities for his teammates, and you know those guys love it
The Carushow!!!
More like hinata, the little giant and the perfect decoy drawing opponents and letting his teammates score
Feel like the way he drive draw so much attentions that his teammate are able to go unnoticed for a split second.
I hear people are calling it the vanishing drive 😂
@@kpyangz916it’s a term from the anime Kuroko no Basket
@@pps5106 I know I was trolling the dude ^
And once the other teams catch on and start paying less attention to him, it'll still be an advantage for him.
Kuroko
there're already Yuki Tsunoda in F1, Yuki Ishikawa in Volleyball, and now Yuki Kawamura in basketball. An athlete named Yuki began to appear
and the Masked Rider Yuki......ok nvm em
You forgot Yuki. The legend of Exodia deck.
I once heard that, in Japanese, the family name comes first. So, his actually ""individual"" name is Kawamura, and Yuki represents his family or region where he was born

everybody's cutting cuz they know they will get a pass if they get open, sign of an unselfish passer
whats cuttin
Yea nice observation

Basically his teammates are moving a lot especially behind defenders towards the basket because he’s unselfish and skilled and they know more often then not he’ll get them the ball and make it worth it.
The opposite is also true , nobody cuts playing with a ball hog.

his playstyle is so fun to watch
This is wild. He has control of the entire opposing team in the clips
He's so damn good for his size and the fact that his teammates can keep up with him even amazes me!
he has crazy stamina to be able to constantly do ninja dashes, just incredible
This man is the real life Tetsuya Kuroko. Generation of Miracles.😂
He is in the zone!
5:07 even his teammate is so confused lmao
His kinesthetic intelligence is on another level❤
Yuki Kawamura unlocked peripheral vision.
It's super effective!
He's smart and fast It became my favorite
I’ve known about his skills since he was in high school but never expected him to play in nba. I hear applause when he gets the ball. What about him attracts the audience?
Crazy skills I guess :D And for most of the people watching its new, so they want to see more
Because of the speed he brings, or at least the illusion of speed. He looks like hes speeding through a slalom course on the mountain and the tall players are the flag posts 🚩🎿 🚩 😅
something new and exciting .
Because height is seen as a barrier to entry and he has the extraordinary skill to surpass this barrier. The amount of kids that get to high school basketball and give up because they're facing 6'4++ dudes is staggering... But Yuki found a way.
I recently started watching NBA because of this man. Its like watching Messi play soccer
He's not taller, but he has a big IQ
Man yuki kawamura assisting left and right just like kuroko.. with his pass
Omg it's kuroko no basketball
Idk why he draws so much attention from the D since Yuki doesn't really seem like a scoring threat, but the defence bites every time and he manages to find the open man
magical pass
They literally said "He can play" 50 times, so I guess... He can play
also his next pass took it to a whole new level. but afterwards the next pass took it to a whole new level.
The commentating is whack.
I just can’t even move my eye along with Yuki’d move!!!! He is super fast my goodness!!!!
His moves are stunning.
His pass is so good :)
He is really good..I'm impressed❤
He is like real life Hinata Shoyo from Haikyuu, only in basketball instead of volleyball. The best decoy who moves like ninja.
