    Every screen that Draymond Green has ever set for Curry has been a moving screen. Nothing smart about that. Just taking advantage of the refs never calling it.

    How can you have a video like this and not include Trae Young? Dude makes the craziest passes every game 😂

    Steven Adams is always included in ‘the greatest’, ‘the smartest/High IQ’ , ‘strongest’ etc..videos.

    Adams pulling out a chair to box out is so brilliant

    This video shows why Jokić should be MVP

    We should do a dumbest plays of the season and have Steve Kerr drawing up a play for Buddy hield with the season on the line instead of drawing it up for curry

    This is why playing defense is so tough in today’s era. The offensive creativity is beyond anything in NBA history.
    And yet, the old heads and the haters have the guts to actually call this the “worst era” of the NBA.

      Half of those old heads would get played off the court today. 1-5 starters are pretty consistent from the 60s onward, but 6-10 rotation players have just exploded in quality in the last 20 years. Some of them would be quality starters 30-40 years ago.

    shot by derrick white is some midorima type shi

    Nico Harrison trading Luka should be in the dumbest plays of the season video

    7:18 Draymond playing offensive line with no call. A warriors classic

      He even has the spirit of a linesman. The idea isn’t to play to the rules, it’s to not get caught breaking the rules for as long as you can.

    7:16 The NBA shouldn’t be praising (multiple) blatant moving screens like that lol 😂

    That intentional miss from Wemby is definitely something Chris Paul would’ve thought of; seeing them learn is super-exciting.

    PLEASE, MORE OF THESE BREAKDOWN OF ACTUAL BASKETBALL, INSTEAD OF TALKING HEADS SHOUTING AT EACH OTHER

    i’m surprised they allow the off-the-backboard reset during live-play, but freethrow shooters have to hit the rim. i guess it’s because it doesn’t happen that often that the rules allow for it.

    that derrick white mid air one motion catch and shoot was insane

    Jokic does not play defense
