Melo’s midrange game was 🔥

I gotta get a Melo Lakers jersey

Dont double team on him. If yoy want to win

Todays NBA nobody do that moves anymore.

Study this man

dude is legit a savage

damn his jumper is so smooth. thanks for this highlights

i f-ing love that stepback midrange shot bro! i hope one day he gets to the finals and makes it as a game winner.. its his signature move

I don't like Dbook but he has the best looking jumper rn. That form is immaculate

Is it possible to get the same compilation for Paul Pierce?

So many pick and rolls

His step was way different in Denver

Bro all of his post up moves are so quick. He's like a fucking robot. You just see the ops lookin every which way and he just capitalizes every time.

can you do kobe and kd pull up js?

Beautiful! Also that man was cooking Richard Jefferson lol

Some post up his elbow is horrible.

I cant WAIT to see him play with lebron in the olympics

Melo is effective in the post, because of high quick he is, he has elite head fakes 😂

Nice video

So simple.

perfect content

Crazy how the scoreboard shows his team is almost always losing. This is why he got phased out the league.

You cant defend this. Imagine having this and a consistent hook shot. Melo and Karl Malone had this shot

rewatching these after the pels loss. Just another day for a kings fan

Automatic

such a great form this is the kind of perfect release that i need

His is a better passer than Sabonis.

Klay Thompson if he was more skilled

One small step for man, one big jab step for melo 😉

Hate to say it but looks kinda like kobe pull up game

Melo is one of the toughest players I've ever seen he plays like a big man rather than a small forward

Always lace too

Great video.

This is why Steph can never be stopped

i swear half of these are on richard jefferson 💀

favorite pg to study... Not the biggest or quickest but his iq and feel for the game is elite. Mastered the fundamentals with a low center of gravity and excellent touch around the rim.

Watched this in slow motion. Seems like he uses his elbows for navigation for Bully Ball and Up and Under. During his 1 or 2 dribbles he's feeling where he can get his elbow on the paint side. He executes his final elbow moves typically after he securely picks up the ball with 2 hands and elbows flared out, similar to grabbing a board. Strong preference for going paint side rather than baseline. Bully Ball 1) If he can get his elbow on the side of opponents torso, then he will use his elbow to seal and go to that side. 2) If his elbow is close to side but doesn't seal the opponents side, then he'll use his elbow to hit the defender in the ribs as he turns his body lol, then go to that side 3) If the opponent is smaller, he'll just use his body and slightly use elbow/hands to manipulate defender, then go up after disorienting defender. 4) If his elbow is no where near sealing, then he'll use body to push opponent back, then go to the other side. When he rises, his elbows are always near opponents face. It's like dirk's 1-legged fadeaway to keep space between defender, but melo's elbow is saying if you want the block then you taking an elbow to the face. Up and Under 1) Uses elbow to seal opponent, then throws a pump. Opponent bites, then he goes under. 2) If opponent is smaller, he doesn't need to seal since he can just shoot over them. He'll pump then go under. 3) If he can't seal on bigger/same size defender or double is coming paint side, he'll turn-around-pump baseline with options. Option 1) Elbows to seal opponents arms/shoulder while going up. Option 2) If opponent doesn't jump, then he'll use his shoulder to push off simultaneously with stepping through. Option 3) If opponent has their arm horizontal in front of melo, he will use elbows to get under opponent's shoulder then rise up. // For the Turn Around Fadeaway/Jumper, seems to happen if he's too far to the basket or if other defenders are also helping and anticipating Melo going into the paint. Multiple dribbles may be happening where he is reading the floor. He incorporates shoulder fakes, shimmys, high release, eyes on basket early, etc. Turn Around Fadeaway 1) He can shoot with his feet perpendicular to the basket whether it is toward the paint or baseline. This happens when he's closer to the basket. Goes hand-in-hand with his up and under since he can now pump from awkward positions and the defender needs to jump if he pumps from a safe position. 2) He may also pump from the perpendicular position, if opponent goes flying, he will square up his feet then shoot. 3) If defender is not bodying him up, he'll just turn-around J with his feet in normal shooting position (which is still slightly staggered like his J). 4) Bump opponent in the chest with his shoulder, then turn around fade with his feet in normal shooting position. 5) If defender is not completely bodying him up, but still very close, he'll use his off-hand to push the opponents hip or shoulder (legal?), or turn around with perpendicular feet. // For the Step Back Fadeaway, similar to Dirk's 1 legged fadeaway from the post. Doesn't involve turn arounds. More of a "in your face, little guy" move. Quick execution. Step Back Fadeaway 1) Lead foot in between and in front of defenders feet while backing down. Shoulder bump, perpendicular feet, step-back fade. 2) Off the triple threat. Lead jab, 1 lead dribble while back foot steps between defenders legs, step-back fade. May include shoulder bump on the dribble. 3) Off the triple threat. Lead jab, 1 rear dribble while jab foot steps between defenders legs, step-back fade. Will finish later. 5:55

Jokic in the span of a few years has gone from a good playmaker to an all time elite playmaker. His passing highlight reel is up there with Magic, Bird, Jordan and Lebron.

This dude is not an offensive player. Which is why it's so crazy how effective he is offensively. He just mastered his strengths.

Step back three go crazy 😂

Draymond the robin to Curry’s Batman 😂🔥

Masterpiece

good❤

thx for this, subscribed, can u make some ray allen content

Beautiful

Jokic is an unstoppable monster. That is why many opponents and their coaches are very frustrated about him because they haven't found his weakness.

It seems his teammates knows where the ball will be it's amazing
