Tyson Chandler denying the shoe toss is probably the funniest thing I've seen. And the fact it can't even be considered a delay of game or tech makes it even better 😂
@@Ten_Thousand_Locusts if goaltending (the name of the rule) were allowed, then players could just stand at the basket and catch the ball right before it goes in, making the game quite boring to watch.
@I_like_smashburgers honestly as someone from a country whose primary sport is football. It just sounds weird to me to NOT be allowed to goaltend, lol. I mean, football has an entire separate player to do just that. Thanks for explaining, though.
That first clip of the entire defense allowing Marcus Smart to shoot not one but two consecutive completely undefended threes is the most hilariously disrespectful thing I've seen in a while 😂😂
Smart has been a streaky 3 pt shooter over the years, with some real stinker seasons in there. Now he can hit them when open, but he was still only averaging .330 from 3 this year. Technically that's the point at which you should not guard a guy. In practice, he'll hit up around .400 if left open, so you need to honor him.
as a life long suns fan, i assure you that was not disrespect. i watched that sequence live and it still haunts me to this day. team was just horrible and didnot care to play at all in those years
@@bjoran83 Then I think it's a coach the 2nd time in the more drawn out yell. Underrated part of the clip though is Gortat busting his ass to contest the shot
As a Jazz fan who watched the game let me explain 1:14. This was during Harden’s MVP year and I believe he had 20+ points at halftime, and almost all of them were drives or step backs to the left. So Rubio simply just stayed on his left backside so that he couldn’t do that. But it does look hilarious either way.
"He just- just- he went... dormant, thinking-wise out there" is the most incredible way to go dormant thinking-wise while trying to explain someone making a brain fart.
I don't blame the commentator. Surprised he didn't have a seizure trying to make sense of the play. Dude was trying to find the nicest way to call him an idiot
0:59 There are legit stats that show this works. Obscuring the shooters vision of the basket, even slightly, affects their accuracy. If you see someone is about to shoot without a defender, just try to obscure their vision of the basket. 😅
That’s honestly a strategy that I’ve also used when I used try and contest wing players as a 6’3 guard myself. However, it won’t work with Steph cuz he makes them with them eyes closed.
Funny enough a few of these have actual explanations for them 0:50 this contest is actually somewhat effective. It's proven to affect a wide open shooter more than if you just stand there (but a close proximity contest is still better) 1:15 seems strange guarding a player from behind but the idea was to stop Harden's stepback 3s at the time and force him to try score inside, making Houston's offense more predictable (it somewhat worked) 2:32 In case you never watched 2016 Steph... the whole league was trying EVERYTHING back then lol I don't blame Melo
yup it was the only way to stop the 4 stepback three pointer from harden. He initiates from left, so left side. But partly on his backside so if he decided to really step back you are in his face immediately. I think in that game they managed to keep him under 25 points
leaving a guy missing three's unguarded is brutal, not only does it work (when used against the right ones) but it absolutely crushes any self confidence still left in that poor soul
1:17 I know what Rubio was going for there. Teams have been guarding Harden like that for a while, trying keep him from driving left. You'll see guards do this to him from time to time, although Rubio was a little far behind lol
yes that was Utah's game plan on trying to contain him for the whole series I think. Of course it was an interesting idea in theory because Harden was crazy efficient on them stepback threes but Houston still easily won the series 4-1 I think
This stance is actually pretty effective on dominant hand drivers or players that can’t go the opposite hand. Have a friend who’s bigger but can’t finish with the left so I would guard him by shadowing his right hand. Basically Id dare him to drive to the rim by giving him an open lane but he’ll either blow the open layup with his left or shoot a heavily contested shot with his right. I mean it’s not the case for Harden, but try it out in 1v1s in the park
Idc if he let the other kid score I fn love that Stephen sturred down Dwight after he blocked his dunk😂😂😂😂 Sturred and flexed inside the no flex zone He fn Rae Sremmured that mfer😂😂😂
2:55 If you listen very closely, there is a very loud foot squeak on the floor, just as Harden stops running for the ball. I'm almost wondering if Harden thought a whistle was blown.
Lance Stephenson flexing after the block, only to have Dwight Howard rebound and dunk while he's not even looking is priceless Only in NBA basketball...

Top 10 block all time :D
What a play😂
Chandler, the best blocking big man in the history of the Mavs. Ball or shoe have nothing on him.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
and the reaction was the cherry on top 😂
Honestly that was epic that Pierce drained the 3 right in Artest’s face after the shorts pull… wild
Yeah, Artest was playing, and Pierce was like, "thanks for the highlight fuel!"
and its was a sidestep which wasnt even a thing back then
@@feritsav1081 I was thinking that as that clip played. I was like damn, he really pulled a 2023 move in like 2006 lol

If you’ve seen dragon ball, he was trying to do the after image technique 😂
2:04 “what a st- bad move” announcer wanted to call him stupid so bad 🤣😭💀
Why though? I stopped the ball from going in, isn't that good defence?
if the ball is travelling downwards and the defending team interferes with it, the shot is counted whether or not it went in

I remember shaqtin saying Lakers making one last playoff "push" lol
Kuzma pushed him like 15 ft lol
Kuz said step tf up bron lmao
Then Kuzma LeTraded
That was good. Lol
Nah but pulling the pants down is crazy, man thought he was playing water polo

Yea they were trying to funnel and force harden to drive since they had Gobert but that Floater or oop to Capela was just deadly
Sorry, but i cant help it: why would someone be a fan of a lottary team?
As a rockets fan, youre right
The crazy thing is that it worked. James Harden had his worst games of the season in that series. The Jazz just couldn't score.

@@dennistang5935even if it is, it's just inbound. without harden touching the ball, it's a sure bucket

Luke Kornet literally does that every single game.
its a good thing tho
The eclipse
It does a block the shooters view of the rim so it actually may be a smart tactic if you cannot get to the shooter
Is it actually good? Have to weigh up the impact it has on 3P% vs the lack of potential to rebound effectively.
Pt 2. please. This entire video was hilarious.

James Harden was trying to save his teammate grade
Respect to Lance Stephenson for continuing to hold frame even as the shot goes in.
"What a Stuuuu.....ah bad move" lol intrusive thoughts

I can never unhear that loud and clear annoyed yell. "OTTO!" 😂
Still waiting for weird no calls, but they get increasingly more outrageous
Lu dort defense is how you supposed to play actual defense hands up and active ready to deflect the ball and contest the shot
