As the legend Bruce Lee once said... "I fear not the man who has practiced 10000 kicks once, but I fear the man who has practiced one kick 10000 times."
@doritos91381 none it's has everything to do with basketball and Livingstone, he practiced one mid range jumper 10000 instead of practicing 10000 moves once.
I was just gonna comment this Livingston was a DOG early on and his horrific injury set him back, hes still a solid player but he was all star caliber before that injury
Indeed he was... and he has incredible hieght and length for a PG, I actually would have used somebody like JJ Barrea or even J. Lin because of their size. But his point was more motivational: for players to develop their mid-range and kill-zones. Hit down shots and get buckets.
@@matthewscully1763 Or maybe he just happened to suffer one of the most horrific injuries in sports history. Just because a guy doesn't return to the level he was before an injury doesn't mean he wasn't ever that good. Gordon Hayward is a former all star who suffered an awful injury and now some people think he is hurting the Celtics because hes not good enough. Does that mean he wasn't all star caliber before the injury?
After going through the rollercoaster ride of getting injured, getting back to the peak, getting injured again, repeat. All I can advice for a younger version of myself is to not rely on athleticism, work on fundamentals and conditioning. Some of those are boring to do when all you wanna do is go play ball in the park, but it’s worth it.
Nobody injure slef on purpose. If you have that on your mind all the time you will end up bad scared player. And maybe in the end get injured before than somebody who not care.
At first I would try to play like I was a superstar... and failed miserably. After I analyzed my game and made some changes, the good players started wanting me on their team. I had suffocating defense and slick passing. I noticed I would always be left open in certain areas, so I practiced from those spots for countless hours. So when my defender would give me some space or try to double the better players on my team, they could pass it to me and I'd drain it. So by accepting my place as a role player, I became deadly on the court, despite the fact I was never the most talented player on it.
This happens to me constantly, me trying to do fancy dribbles and driving to layup instead of taking an uncontested midrange, but i try fix step by step that just like tim duncan, fundamentals is key. Now im a more consistent scorer and a much more efficient one too just because i play with fundamentals and not trying to do to much.
Exactly, hes 6'7, that's why he does what he does. Btw It was disrespectfull the way he introduced Shaun Livingston. Like, if you can't be one of the best's, be average like him.
I'm seriously impressed by the fact that you heart every comment and you respond to them. I can understand how people adore you, this is how you create a community....well done mate, well done.
haha, it's becoming more and more difficult honestly. But it comes from me just genuinely being interested in what's going on in the comments and what are people saying. First 3 hours of each video I am in the comments for sure. This one for example I'm still in here after 12 hrs and there are some that I might not come back that much later. But first 3-4 hrs for sure :) And thanks for the kind words :)
To reach that point in nba, even as sideline sniper or pure defense player, you gotta be really damm good already. They just seems weak because all those star are just at different level. They probably find their niche spot in the team after realised how much the gap between them and the top dogs, and work on that. Competition to be there are tough, you gotta play with mindset that you are lebron or something at low lvl to be noticed, or you just wont make it. My 2 cents. Great video as always mate 👌💯.
Backpack PePelon true... competitiveness is something that will take you far and noticable. but if you are like me who can’t play like Lebron, you gotta be efficient and be real on what u can contribute to the team, and apply it on da game.
You don't have to play with a Lebron mindset, you just have to have a huge amount of passion in what you are good at and continually work on it to be good at it. Jarrett Allen for example, isn't an exceptional offensive player but hustles for rebounds, gets points from doing that and isn't scared to go up and try to block anybody and the kid's only 20. That has him on a lot of people's radars, the fact that he won't back down from anyone at the rim, that's a valuable asset to have because that stays in everybody's minds. Marcus Smart is a big contributor for the Celtics because he understands the game, reads passing lanes well, hustles the motherfucking hardest, moves his feet well and again, doesn't back down from guarding anyone. Resilience is a key attribute that coaches love. Even if you wanted to go the other way so it's not defensive specialists. Kyle Korver has pretty much made a career and won a championship from doing not a whole lot more than spotting up for 3 point shots. He's not quick, doesn't have much of a handle, isn't a great defender, he's averaged 9.9 PPG over his career and yet he's played for 5 different NBA teams, about 65-70 games a season for 16 years. Quinn Cook wasn't a main stay in the Warriors lineup after he got drafted right off the back of winning an NCAA National Championship at Duke, still doesn't average huge numbers and isn't an exceptional player by NBA standards but he worked his ass off to put himself in the frame to stay in the league after being bounced down to the G-League. The only things that will stop you from getting where you want to go is a lack of real desire or an ego too big to accept a small role in something big.
Hazwan Zaidan yeah but there are also a lot of guys that make it into the league that don’t get drafted. Jeremy Lin is a good example, Wesley Matthews is another, Udonis Haslem, Bruce Bowen, Ben Wallace. And Ben Wallace is a great example because, in an era that suited paint bashing BIG big men, he was undersized for a Center but had the hustle and guts to be dominant from a position where he shouldn’t have had the chance to be and now he’s remembered as one of the greatest defenders and rebounders of all time. Bruce Bowen is another great example because he was so limited offensively when he went undrafted, got picked up by a poor Celtics team, then got traded and waived by the Bulls. Then the Heat picked him up, got him hitting shots from the corner and suddenly a whole new mould of player was born, the “3&D” wing. Bowen then turned into an extremely effective 3 point shooter and was a solid piece in a Spurs team that won 3 championships. He didn’t have any real offensive assets to his game until Miami shaped him into a 3 point shooter but his defensive hustle and work rate put him in that position to start with. So no you don’t even have to get drafted to get somewhere in the NBA.
This is my new favorite video Stefan! I love Shaun Livingston and his story. He was the next big thing in the NBA before his injury and it takes a lot for a man who used to be in the spotlight to play second fiddle. (Even if on the best team in the world) Only someone with Shaun's story could be the high value roleplayer he is for GS right now. Your expose about hard work and defense at the end was amazing! Truly stuff I wish I had heard in high school. I was a defensive hound, exactly the character that you outlined, but I never really found a place in the offence, even at a roleplayer position. Keep it up White Kyrie!
Man Stefan, this is honestly my favourite upload of yours ever. Perfectly said! The players you mentioned are the exact ones I have mentioned! You are 100% correct, if you give 110% effort, that’s what matters most!!🔥🔥
@@willhuston9589 Focus shooting in the range you can shoot in, and don't think about how other can hit half-court shots, you do you and shoot were your comfortable from.
Marcus Smart is the perfect example. While in high school and college, he was being compared to Wade. But once in the NBA, he adapts his game fully on defense and 3 pointers just because he ain’t good with handles etc. nice video
Not an OKC fan but Steven Adams also needs recognition! Dude is a walking brick wall setting great screens and place tough down low. Very specific skill set
This is the MOST amazing video you did man. I play huge minutes as a pass first PG and people love me playing defense. People don't see your effort shutting down the scorer.
Facts!! I been tryna preach this too! I've worked on me weaknesses enough so that they're not a liability, and then just perfected what I do well (mid range) and play my butt off on defense. Wherever I play pickup, guys who've seen me play always pick me near the beginning just because of my offensive rebounds and how I'll always lockdown their best offensive player
i always watch-out for livingston on every gsw game i watch. i knew that there will be an analysis vid like this recognizing the "specialist" track for a player's career path. this vid is a great job👍
why do i feel like you taking a shot at those old heads that doesn't know how to screen but camp at low post 24/7 for the ball, trying to shoot fadeaway so hard with a tongue stick out that hits nothing but backboard. "damn it ain't my day...back in my days i would have.."
I was never the most talented or genetically gifted. I was just willing to work hard every time i stepped on the court. thats how a short white guy earned respect on the court.
Excellent video I've always been a big man and tried to play my role rebound play defense protect the rim run the floor. Find something you are good at and master it
@@zacharyjones7948 ye y are lucky that y can work your game because where i live i cant go somewhere and work on my shot and i only can play bball on my hs team
Dude I love the attitudes and values you share with your community! I also try so live these points of view with my own game! Much love, great vids, keep up the work!
ahhhh, Shaun Livingston was no scrub before the injury. In HS there was a huge debate between him and Telfair as to who the best HS PG was. Livingston had the height and passing, Bassy had the handles and the scoring. NBA obviously felt that way as well considering their draft positions. Livingston was the real deal. He was what every combo guard today is trying to be. His height let him see and pass over the defense. His handles and BBall IQ were star level, even as a rookie. His defense wasn't anything great, but he usually had 5 inches or so advantage in height and even more in wingspan, which hid his defensive liabilities a little. Negatives were that he rail thin and weak. He had an inconsistent jumper and even had some trouble finishing floaters in the lane, despite his height. I don't think his game would have ever allowed him to dominate scoring-wise, but I could have easily seen him average a pts and assist double double for multiple years. Add that to the high rebounding numbers he would give and he would have been putting up a lot of triple-doubles in his career. People compared him to Magic Johnson before he was even in the NBA.
This should be mandatory viewing for kids who love the game but are demoralised they can't compete with their talented peers. Always a place for work ethic. Great vid
You are litteraly the first youtuber who actually command my fingers to hit the like button ! You are special ! You are box office I love your content ! ❤️❤️
Perfect, you go to the boxes where nobody touches, very nice topic to discuss about. People, including me, normally don't see these kind of perspectives.
Shaun Livingston has 3 rings. Dame, Harden, and Giannis all currently have 0. 3 > 0 Shaun Livingston is literally better than Dame, Harden, and Giannis combined You cannot argue.
Nailed it, I maybe not consistently shooter and still working on handles, but I can lock you down defensively, rebounding specialist, and a great fast break scorer
this is exactly how i am. i’m definitely not the best shooter/offensive scorer on my team. my hustle, drive, and defense is what keeps me going and honestly that’s what a lot of teams want and need
Damn this is one of the best NBA videos on RUclips I seen in a long time. Everybody makes the same as the next, but you bust out with a title like this and I hadda watch. You know your hoops you got skills with breakdown and most importantly it's a topic which is not just about LeBron and the same old blah blah blah. I'm not saying I don't expect you not to cover the hot topics but when you do don't be a carbon copy of the other no talents out there. 5 STAR RECOMMENDED TO ALL NBA FANS!!! Your work is much appreciated, New Subscriber

Heat check I love you videos man but out of all this is personally the best one stay positive in keep grinding
Thank you so much
@@HeatCheck no problem vro
legends have it that Stephen wont like this.
Reese! I guess the legends were wrong. Google it next time. More reliable info
Its crazy that Beverly and Tucker needed to play in europe for few years to get into the NBA
lol,I just realised I've been doing this all the time xd
Perfect, you go to the boxes where nobody touches, very nice topic to discuss about. People, including me, normally don't see these kind of perspectives.
The only thing that i can do in basketball is passing 😂
After this video, I've subbed. And this is maybe the second NBA channel I've subbed on. Excellent points! Very sharp.
Shaun Livingston has 3 rings.
Dame, Harden, and Giannis all currently have 0.
3 > 0
Shaun Livingston is literally better than Dame, Harden, and Giannis combined
You cannot argue.
thanks heat check ! you remind us to keep focused, and admire underrated things on basketball. heat senpai
Nailed it, I maybe not consistently shooter and still working on handles, but I can lock you down defensively, rebounding specialist, and a great fast break scorer
Heat Check never fails to bring out good content . Inspirational vid 🙏🏿
this is exactly how i am. i’m definitely not the best shooter/offensive scorer on my team. my hustle, drive, and defense is what keeps me going and honestly that’s what a lot of teams want and need
Damn this is one of the best NBA videos on RUclips I seen in a long time. Everybody makes the same as the next, but you bust out with a title like this and I hadda watch. You know your hoops you got skills with breakdown and most importantly it's a topic which is not just about LeBron and the same old blah blah blah. I'm not saying I don't expect you not to cover the hot topics but when you do don't be a carbon copy of the other no talents out there. 5 STAR RECOMMENDED TO ALL NBA FANS!!!
Your work is much appreciated, New Subscriber
Great vid man, 🙏
I'm waiting for someone to make a vid like this. Thanks, bruh!
You make great videos man... Hats off!
real nice vid. I like to see more of this stuff where not only the super stars get the attention. greetings from germany
Great video! Thanks for showcasing Shaun Livingston importance to the game!
Hope to see you bro someday on the network for sports as one of the trusted analysts. Really love your work.
