😂😂 that Danny Green bit got me crying

[@adamlewis1934]

As a HUGE sixers fan, i LOVE maxey. He is a shining light in the darkness for a sixers fan. No matter what is happening with this team, as long as we have maxey, there is something to be excited about. Keep smiling maxey, & may your love and appreciation for the opportunity to play ball for a living always shine through.

[@akrshd]

love the “bad pass” analogy, similar to Rodman talking about how the ball bounces off the rim depending on who shot it and how he got the rebound

[@tinobrown1780]

One of the biggest hurdles for rookies. Not being scared to make mistakes. It’s blatantly obvious when you see a young player who’s playing tight.

[@BarrackObamna]

Not being scared?

[@SolaceMcfly]

​@@BarrackObamnayeah all rookies don't have the greenlight to keep shooting.

[@BarrackObamna]

@@SolaceMcfly re read his comment and tell me it makes sense. I know what he means but he said the opposite. He used being scared as a negative. Grammatically it only makes sense if he’s talking about the hurdle(negative) and said not again right after meaning it’s a double negative

[@firsttakeentrepreneur2715]

ABSOLUTELY CORRECT

[@Thatboygtmike]

yeah when he used the word freedom that's when it really clicked.. alot of players don't get the freedom to show what their potential are. Really have to earn it.

[@Andy77975]

Joel catching strays😂😂

[@PhilPhan]

I get it's a joke but Tyrese prefaced it by saying JoJo triple teamed so practicing catch and shoots from contested passes is just savvy on Tyrese's end

[@vittiriowashington5211]

Premeditated, cerebral, understanding your teammates style of play..

[@thejesterjester]

​@@vittiriowashington5211and not just learning from experience, right? He'd never seen those bad passes from Joel before he 'meditated' on them 🤭

[@MrQuestful]

Without question JJ is my favorite NBA journalist. Because he played, he has a depth of knowledge others don’t. He’s deep in a conversation and looking up stats to build on the conversation. Let’s get this man to 1 million subscribers!

[@machetegaming]

Not only that. He is also eloquent and introspective and mature. Many other players make pods, but from those I've seen they are not as insightful nor deep as JJs.

[@MrQuestful]

@alonzoharris187 I disagree. I think we may have become too accustomed to the kind of criticism of analysts that is dismissive, I don’t find it productive. No one holds analysts accountable for the accuracy of predictions, but they will scrutinize EVERYTHING and ANYTHING about athletes.

[@lachlanohalloran2736]

I remember watching Ben Simmons live in that Utah game when he had a 44 point almost triple double when Joel was injured. 40 piece on DPOY Rudy Gobert..

[@inouephilip]

I remember and that's a very funny one because that offensive performance was their propaganda why ben should win the DPOY. A game where the sixers LOST! What a comedy gold😂😂🤣

[@vannq7785]

@@inouephilipno, because it was that Gobert allowed “ben Simmons” to score 44. Then Gobert won DPOY

[@kylecook4206]

@@vannq7785Pretty sure most dpoy would have 40 points against them once

[@kylecook4206]

Damn, that's a hell of improvement in his shooting stats. Good on him.

You create and amazing content, JJ. Congrats from Spain

[@edwardnigma4087]

When JJ says shooting gets infinitely more complicated of a subject, before I’d be no it isn’t. But after hearing him she Cam Johnson talk about it, I was literally dumbfounded with how much goes into shooting on their level. Like everything matters, where the pass is coming from, what side of the pick you’re coming off, which foot you plant first depending on the side your on, etc. I’m telling you if no one has seen that episode and enjoys basketball and shooting especially, it’s a must watch!

[@Dante-sg8tb]

Brooo…JJ is liek a basketball therapist

[@MrPeanutButter907]

I love how, no matter what criticism may go Joel's way, Tyrese finds a way to have his back

[@DwainDwight]

one of fav players. nice one JJ

[@evanroder2199]

As someone who pretty much always roots against the 76ers, I can't not like Maxey. He's a fun guy to watch play, and he seems like a genuinely cool dude too.

[@SlowerOne]

This is why coaching can make or break athletes. Telling a player that he has to make a shot or he won’t play is crazy.

[@theperfectescape5785]

That scared to shoot again after that sprinkle threat was real 😂

[@markmittens]

No one caught what he said about Joel even when he's double and tripled teammed he's going to "sometimes" pass out of it.

[@randyblackman6271]

This proves how bad coaching ruines players. Instead of giving confidence they take it away.

[@daviesugo7641]

Kerr with youngsters

[@williemxses]

JJ, Shump & Gil sit down with young players, breakdown film, then apply it on the court- I’d be tuned in!

[@mikefrizzy]

Maxey is light years better than the guys you grouped him in with. He’s gonna remember this lol

[@sween1432]

sounds like an excellent teammate

[@andrejsjegorovs3849]

When is KP coming?

[@danielmagnuson9986]

All I know is I want that Purple sweatshirt

[@jgray2718]

It's awesome that Tyrese wants to work on everything he'll need to use, and he's always thinking ahead to which passes he needs to work on, which shots, which plays, and all depending on who's on the roster, who's healthy, etc. That feels like a real professional attitude to me. As for pulling him if he misses a shot or making sure he knows there will be consequences for missing - that's some terrible coaching. You think he's trying to miss? It's literally the coach's job to make sure the player is in the best situation to succeed, and you're putting extra pressure on him when you know he's still getting adjusted to the NBA and to his new role? Why would anyone think that's a good idea?

[@ksalanpang]

lol this kid is still a rookie or should i re-phrase it to a big kid. Fun to hear from his perspective.

[@filipdulak]

I prepared something for you my man. Can i send it to you somewhere?

[@givingyousportsfrommyview]

Bro you know damn well that "bad pass" with ben in the pic is click bait smh

[@NarcoLepsyy]

JJ going at unc any chance he get 😂

[@SkitzoJo]

Ben asked maxey if he could average 16 on the bulls intending that he couldn't be him??😂
