[@oaba09]

I liked how he referenced Rip Hamilton...That guy was a beast in the midrange....definitely one of the best off the ball players I've seen...

[@timothywashington1602]

Oscar Angelo Abesamis Totally agree. Unfortunately because of the trend of the NBA, I believe someone emulating Rip's midrange prowess will be frowned upon by these franchises.

[@moneyhungrymf8331]

Oscar Angelo Abesamis shows how much he lives off logic and facts instead of emotions an hatred... could of easily never mention the mans name again after 04’s episode . He really a 🐐 🐐🐐🐐🐐

[@Mrgoodkenneth]

Ikr! The way he praised Rip for doing the simple yet VERY effective plays-off ball and sliding in the pocket for a jump shot. He's one of the reason why Detroit Pistons were a nightmare in offence after playing defense.

[@AnchorShip]

Mrgoodkenneth Average offense* “nightmare on the offence”

[@patrickr4762]

That's bec. RIP was a student of Jordan when he was still at the Wizards. Jordan made him a better player when they were together. Kobe's example was a good one bec. these are MJ's playbook.

Rest in Peace to Kobe Bryant one of the greatest basketball players of all time. He will always live on in the idea of him the Black Mamba his workouts his dedication to greatness. The death of Kobe Bryant had an effect on me that no celebrity death to this point in my life has, I was shocked and dismayed by this tragic news. The death of all people on board that helicopter including his beloved daughter is horrific and a bit of awful timing with the feat that LeBron James accomplished yesterday. There are players whom are undoubtedly better basketball players than Kobe Bryant, less complicated individuals than Kobe Bryant yet for me the effect he and his story especially going through the ordeal in which made him become the black mamba has helped me out through good time’s and bad. The enduring legacy of Kobe Bryant to me even after his and his young daughters passing is that of my favourite athlete. Los Angeles Lakers Retired Jersey Number 8 and 24 speak to the amount of admiration that the Lakers franchise had for him, and the National Basketball Association as a whole feels for him. Yet my admiration for Kobe Bryant Transcends Basketball. The player who is my favourite Basketball Player of all time. He and his little daughter and all whom perished in this incident I hope rest in peace and that they are in Heaven right now. I have much love for you Kobe Bryant Rest In Peace. 🐍💛💜

[@md357.]

King Savage its not just this video its just his overall knowledge of the game in general and knowing how to put your people in the right places to get the best shots good coaches know how to do that and he is a specialist at that ...its common Knowledge on how to shoot a ball but not everyone can teach u how to do it correctly

His reaction to that wide curl is so raw I love that. He can’t deny his passion, thats learning and teaching. I can only imagine how much he helped players like lebron kd and giannis develop ove the years. I find it’s easier to miss someone when you imagine the world without them ever

[@DaveVoyles]

6 years later, Tatum is 1st team all NBA and currently in the eastern conference finals.

[@b.s.3000]

When Kobe brings up Rip Hamilton, I literallu went wide eyed for a moment. I was like damn, Rip might be the premier catch and shoot off the screen player in the 2000s. Good stuff. And good that Kobe can give a young man a direction to go towards. I don’t see Rips mid-ranged game anymore in the league. He took high percentage mid rangers. Great guard to study.

To summarize... when coming off screens... you need to recognize how the defense is playing you and your main objective should be to get to spots that keep your teammate in the direct line with your defender. This makes it tougher for him to get to you

jazz03 he plays for himself he said his only friend on the court is the basketball he wear shirts about his stats, he takes like 30 shots a game and only 5 are good looks, his teammates lets him grab rebounds for triple doubles westbrick is a good player but he care more about how he looks than Winning the game

Ray Prudencio worst efficiency per game they say he's clutch yet has more then 40,000 misses in his entire career most misses by anyone and they say he won 5 championship which he was only apart of 3 and carried 2 Shaq and Kobe the 1-2 punch who was your superstar franchise player getting paid 120mill? Shaq who was you all star help? Kobe. From 2003 till 2016 who was the most dominant player after Shaq LeBron James not Kobe Kobe was a great player don't get me wrong but he wasn't a goat

[@thechoosenone9847]

Ray Prudencio and no I'm not one of them guys that believe lebron better than mj because that comparison doesn't exist you're comparing sg to a SF 6'9 to a 6'6 best player to the best athlete the only thing comparable between them was the dominance in their era and no I'm not comparing them to team championships I'm comparing them to player comparisons

[@drue1209]

No Ls u need to do more research on kobe. He was factor in all 5 on the championship. Shaq didnt win until kobe became a star. What happen from 96-99? Shaq was on the Lakers. Someone scoring 40+ vs every team in the league is overrated. 2nd in the most 60+ pt games, Avg 40 in a month, 12 times all defensive team, 81 pts, 5 rings and lead a d league to the playoffs in the west.

[@usernotfound3]

If you look at each play, taytum didn’t score or get any points in the play. Kobe’s advice at least gives him open shots that he has a better chance of making. The 3 is important and has grown in value, but a mid range game is still very important

[@linkluver_izn]

this'll help my game too. i've never heard of these pocket areas and i play highschool ball. it's crazy, like, i feel like it's a new move i can add but it's such a small positioning detail. midrange is so underrated.
