You should be A SKILLS coach, you iq for the game is crazy

[@CoachFrikki]

Respect the compliment, but honestly I'm not a big fan of today's "skills trainer" culture. In my opinion we should be playing more pickup, more 1v1, playing more of other sports. Meanwhile doing way less (if any) "skills workouts".

[@farhansarkar2394]

@@CoachFrikki What do you mean exactly by “skills trainer” culture?

[@CoachFrikki]

@@farhansarkar2394 The culture of most players having their own skills trainer who puts them through 1v0 workouts with no decision making. Not gonna name any names but most “skills workouts” from these skill gurus are the trainer telling the player exactly what to do and when to do it, which is the completely opposite of basketball which is reactive and chaotic. Time could be spent better for example by playing pickup.

[@evanmorrisreiser]

This channel is like a truth room. Clips from all walks of the game. Salaries, social media following, franchise, league, shape, size, none of it matters. The topic is driving to the cup. Nothing to do with personalities. So seeing clip examples with the likes of Russel Westbrook in a Lakers uniform, who was the most trolled and disrespected athlete I've personally witnessed in my life, are just normal and you see it for what it is because he is executing a perfect example of the topic of the video. I really appreciate that. Trolling pros and focusing on personalities is egocentric and not good for my game. Focusing on principles executed well, is. If social media is toxic, Frikki channel is medicinal. Zero BS. Kobe smiles upon us. Also I love that you even included an example from a narrative film XD

Thanks for this. I always have problems being more physical, I always get too nice in my own mind, not wanting to hurt ppl. But then I box out and get rebounds aggressively so idk what's wrong with my brain :( Will be practicing these!!!

it’s because y’all never been punched in the face GET OUT THERE basketball is a physical sport and you’re holding yourself back and that doesn’t mean fight everybody that means learn how to use your body the right way. look at how luka does this he’s great, look at steph all the small guards do this to stay in the nBA

Coach Frikki. I find that all of your videos are helpful, but this one was a live changer for me. I'm a big guy and no one never explained this to me. I've always struggled even with smaller defenders!! I'm still getting the hang of it but the thing with bumping and closing gaps have made me unstoppable 😭😭Thank you so much!!!!

[@puku50]

Thank you bro

[@thankyouverymochi]

great analysis, this should be taught more in highschool or early basketball club. I've seen players only focused on getting to the rim, but this video explains how dribbling to the side to cut the defender then use the momentum against them really works well. and remember what makes NBA players can do it seamlessly is because they can do stop and shoot, and they all have their own 'weapon' to use.

[@King-ik3hw]

[@Jtrheaaa]

This is just what I needed bc I was in a major drought u should make a off the dribble jumper video

[@SYMDUNITED]

Good shit as always ❤

[@CoachFrikki]

Thank you spicy chicken boi

[@olivergriffiths8094]

Banger video as always but I also reckon it’s important to note that even though AFTER you get an advantage on ur man u should drive super tight to cut them off, usually the first (and sometimes second dribble) after your move do have to be a bit wider in order to get outside their frame and gain an advantage (unless you cross them up like crazy)

[@CoachFrikki]

Great point. This video is solely focusing on what to do after you gain that initial advantage. The other part is tricky, you can't go too tight against strong defenders, while attacking too wide will get you into tough angles. Gotta find that sweetspot in between!

[@davidhall4401]

@@CoachFrikki I was practicing finishing using this same concept in this video. The one that comes natural to me is bumping them out of the play. I believe in tight angles, but i also believe in closing the gap at the rim and physically bumping them while they're still running in front if you can't initiate contact earlier. There are times where you just have to keep closing that gap. I don't think the ref will call a foul on the push off if he's running in front to cut you off and has not stopped moving because you will still be seen as controlling your space

[@yeoh710]

Totally agree with that

[@TheDaud14]

[@denzellozar]

Hi Coach, your videos might actually improve my game a lot quickly as your tips are straight to the point based from what I have been learning from you recently, and I like it honestly. Though at 6:20, how can we identify when the defender Backs Up and gives us the opportunity to put them under the rim? And how can we body them whenever theyre in our way or close the gap theyre making without getting a foul or worse, injuring them? Thanks a lot!

[@NorthernNightmare]

Un excelente análisis

[@cooper08williams]

Thanks

[@miraj4936]

It’s little nuances of the game like this that really helps me out as a player.

[@_random_guy]

drive tight, stay in your lane cut opponent off be able to finish on both sides initiate contact, close in on them if they close in, counter if they back off, put them under the rim

[@m.dykhoff9988]

[@isaacrivera8122]

W video even though I haven't watched it yet

[@henrigibot4233]

Hello Coach Frikki, always convinced by your content. Would it be possible to make a video where you give an archetype of what pro players have in their package? For example 1 go-to move, 2 favourite Finishers, 2 counter moves, 2 dribble moves (1 in fastbreaks etc...), shooting: 1-2 and/or Hop mastered. I can't assess the difficulty or the relevance of what I'm asking but by looking at your video I think there is a possibility of making some global synthesis. Thank you for reading and thank you for your video.
