Kyrie's Finishing: A Complete Breakdown

[@ivoivanov361]

It's awesome that you're using these captions instead of talking, I think it's much easier to comprehend when you can go back and read it again.

[@ice-xk2uv]

Ivo Ivanov or maybe he has a horrible accent thus refuses to speak avoiding the humiliation erected by the comment section however I agree it’s awesome

[@ivoivanov361]

Basket Ball No he doesn't haha, go see the video about the quick first step, he talks there

[@ice-xk2uv]

Ivo Ivanov lol

[@bottimusprime9960]

Also helps when your in class and can read instead of listen

[@bwall3994]

Who in the world keeps saying soccer is better than basketball in all of the basketball videos?! Why are you even watching basketball videos if soccer's so much better?!!!

[@RobertoRodriguez-jw6or]

Kyrie´s game is so complete they are breaking it down by parts. Thank you.

[@Texan4lifee]

Roberto Rodríguez faaaxxxxxx

[@rachelsabree8634]

[@abdullahiali223]

Kyrie is the most skilled guard in the NBA no one has a off hand like him , handles, jumper , post game it's amazing

[@theavatar9191]

Except Curry

[@jatmikaaji7643]

The Avatar not even close to kyrie lol

[@rifqiah]

@@theavatar9191 curry is nowhere near kyrie in terms of handles finishing at the traffic and changes direction in high speed. Curry got handles but what makes him so special is he has range. He can shoot 3 from anywhere in the court. That's impossible to emulate by any of nba player even harden thompson korver and other 3 points specialist. If curry 3 points skill was taken out, i bet he was just grouped into "tier 5 point guards". Nothing special from other basketball aspects of steph curry except his limitless shot range

[@aaxeliotts]

Curry is only good at shooting, other than that, Kyrie is 100x better than him at everything.

[@alexandrews6391]

Idk harden and russ are nasty as hell. Kyrie has best handles and best at layups

[@justina5688]

Your under estimating how much the spin of the ball helps. He mastered that shit. His layups are so hard to block even with no elevation because he's essentially throwing the ball high left or high right of the backboard and he's not throwing it at an angle. He's not aiming for the middle of the backboard like a standard layup. All he has do do is hit the backboard and put the right spin on the ball and he can make it.

[@claycox1829]

justin a not just spin but also touch which is very difficult to do, even more so when he does it descending

[@od3mba]

is it more of a lateral spin or a vertical spin on the ball?

[@apollospyrol7168]

He said it in a video he aims at a spot and puts touch on it

[@myskrillaa]

@@od3mba more lateral but obviously it changes depending which hand and where you lay it up from

[@stephencurry1334]

Hands down, best basketball info channel! Breakdown is great helped me out a ton! Keep posting this content.

[@TheTariqibnziyad]

Stephen Curry Chef we are wining the first round for you !!!

[@stephencurry1334]

Ibnziyad Tariq not a golden state warrior fan lol just a curry fan

[@FoxyChariot]

Stephen Curry Hello fellow not-GSW-but-Curry-fan

[@elhambadri6073]

That makes no sense

[@theprophet1915]

I still don’t understand why they don’t have more subs.

[@Anon.G]

It takes a lot of strength to finish accurately while on the descent.

[@deandrepittman4310]

MG_Anon it definitely does, that's 1 of the finishes I don't try to use, it works good when you jump in to someone and force them to decide where their going to swing there arm to block and you just wait and layup after there hand is down

[@Grind2Excellence]

MG_Anon its so fucking hard because gravity is working against every fiber. It's insane when I see it, especially Lebron is amazing because he does it WITH heavy contact

[@FoxyChariot]

I'm more of a shooter but when I finish, I use floaters or goofy foot layups to throw off defenses. I only use fancy finishes like these when heavily contested and forced into them.

[@ernestchen5756]

MG_Anon it’s more of good ball control

[@kingphil4073]

Not really. It requires skill and momentum before you jump and the confidence of jumping into your defender IMO

[@anthonyantmanedwardsisbett8197]

These finishes are crafty as hell but the hangtime is really what makes all this possible.

[@kingphil4073]

Xavier Rhodes #RhodesClosed #Lockdown no, not imo. You may have a crazy vert but may not be scared at finishing at the rim

[@PyroInferno110]

Not just hang time, but his strength too

[@deandrepittman4310]

Leo_Cerberus alot of layups you can catch guys off gaurd with the quick barely jump layup. I do it all the time. Kyrie, John wall, harden and westbrook all do layups in traffic(usually fastbreak) where they feet barely leave the ground. They glide to the rim real low. Instead of a high jump they long jump, the whole goal is to beat you to the rim

[@deandrepittman4310]

Leo_Cerberus oh I forgot when you long jump layup you have to do it be for they get to plant there feet and high jump because if you don't get the ball yo touch backboard fast enough(while under control, which is very hard, you'll have to have a very soft touch with good english) or you'll get your shot blocked

[@anthonyantmanedwardsisbett8197]

Deandre Pittman if you watch Westbrook he does a lot of low glide dunks too lol

[@chiefsolo6013]

Kyrie is truly special in terms of ball handling and finishing.

[@omalone1169]

Is there any better

[@user-qp3tj3si6n]

@@omalone1169 nope

[@mike5861]

YES FINALLY! IVE WAITED 2 YEARS!!! THANK YOU ByAnyMeansBasketball!!!!!

[@LeBeautiful]

Kyrie an expert finisher; master of none. Outstanding video as always!

[@anthonyantmanedwardsisbett8197]

I’d say he’s a master at dribbling

[@ItsCaptainMC]

why does this guy get top comment every fucking time im jealous

[@johnwickkkkk1]

LeBeautiful Master at finishing. And dribbling.

[@A7OldRscplayer]

He's probably a bot and has bots like his autistic comments

[@davidhanks6893]

Offensively he is a master at everything

[@MR_M0RNINGSTAR]

He doesnt jump like crazy but man, he gets the job done. He's technique is flawless.

[@nationalblackaccord494]

The spin and how he knows the glass is why, no one has as much English as him

[@globalhusler]

You don’t know how long I have been waiting on this video about KingJelly🙌🏾🏀

[@TheSonictheplayer]

Best basketball in depth analysis. Great job providing a understanding of how the littlest things contribute to what the videos are about. Great channel.

[@christopherdai4867]

Recently I've been practicing how to finish at the rim better and this video just gave me several good tips to help me layup better. I appreciate you and those who helped make this video

[@marlanekelly170]

These videos are incredible. His amazing finishes are based on timing, defensive reads, ball security and probably the most important; keeping your eyes on the rim at all times.

[@MrPopeZilla]

Already know this is going to be class. Keep it up dude gonna get that Netflix deal any day now lol

[@honnashankara3681]

This is the coolest video I've seen! Cheers man! Keep up 👍

[@leroyroberts7564]

I watch a lot of this videos not only to enjoy the basketball content but because, of the instrumentals you be having. Another one right here that I'm going to have on repeat.

[@andreyskvortsov9546]

Wow, an amazing video for once. Very interesting and super useful how you guys analyzed every component to Kyries finish, I will definetely keep coming back to this video specifically and the channel, great content and very helpful!

[@daedot8433]

This vid really helps, now I need to know where to throw the ball off the backboard.

[@thankyouverymochi]

Kyrie’s mechanics is always looks complicated and difficult. thanks for breaking it down to piece by piece. it helps me understand and learn more.

[@PowerfulAndWise]

Thanks for another great upload! Kyrie is a fantastic finisher!! I really hope that he gets his full health back soon. Blessings to you all!

[@luiscolon4716]

This guy is a genius keep up the good work

[@lawsonpinegar8690]

Yes man thanks the extended long step he uses is an amazing concept and so prefect to really toy with defenders even when they play you tight. I've seen Irving do it several times this season and will watch it in slo mo many times because of how beautiful it is. So glad someone finally brought attention to that very great move

[@anthonyhutchins676]

I added the over head gather and it instantly made me better... It just gets you to the rim with so many options if you can release the ball high well.

[@omarr.hamedd]

YOU ARE AMAZING...One of the best basketball channels in my opinion

[@okeythegoat2332]

best breakdown channel ☺

[@6aliph77]

or post moves ( I know its not sexy but its still needed or three point fundamentals)

[@vorpql3254]

😂😂

[@carlosmendez3955]

Great video, it would be nice to watch it now with prime Derrick Rose or Allen Iverson, how he mannaged to do it with only the right hand.

[@giovannigaier01]

its incredible, i do the same things like off hand floaters, jump straight to the glass, show the ball and then use the spin off the glass, jump off two foots, finishing off foot to anticipate the big man...all this things are really important if you are undersize, it helps you very a lot to get to the rim

[@claycox1829]

His offensive package is flawless and mind blowing for his height, the spin, english, control, and touch with either hand is just jaw dropping amazing, his oversized hands for his height is a big factor as well, at 6'2 I've never seen anyone like this kid and I've watched ball for almost 50 years

[@AG-ft2tg]

@HPM Boss you a stupid bitch HEIGHT GOT SO MUCH TO DO WITH IT DUMBASS... YOU KNOW NOTHING ABOUT BASKETBALL

[@gmac3335]

Most offensively skilled guard in the league, just a straight wizard with the ball!

[@utimateamvs1873]

Gmac curry is lmao

[@laneyj]

UtimateAmvs curry has nowhere near the variety of moves and shots. Kyrie can literally score from anywhere in any way.

[@laneyj]

HPM Boss do you watch basketball or just highlights? Kyrie makes the hardest things look easy. That's where skill comes in. He has the best off hand in the league, is the best finisher and has the best all around offensive game (inside, mid-range, three, layups, floaters, turnaround jumpshots, fadeways, etc). No one, and I mean no one, has a more complete arsenal That's exactly why Durant said Kyrie's "bag is full." Curry is a better three point shooter, spacer and passer. That's it. Kyrie's whole game is predicated on beating people off of skill.

[@laneyj]

HPM Boss you're confusing the issue. Steph may be the more profilic scorer, but he is not more skilled than Kyrie. You can test it out yourself. Try to do the things each one does and see which comes easier to you. Kyrie does harder things more routinely. That is skill. Curry is better than Kyrie at one, maybe two skills. Three point shooting and maybe passing. Everything else, Kyrie is better at. Also, Shaq could probably score more than Allen Iverson. Does that make Shaq more skilled than AI?

[@laneyj]

HPM Boss ok. You just don't get it. And that's ok. Have a good day.

[@richiefong3458]

I love this channel im subscribed and I learned a lot from this I now beat my teammates during practice and playing against other ppl during games kyrie is such a great player and thanks to you for helping out

Yesss, great content! I might actually pay for the monthly thing

[@juanpenport6593]

Most underrated channel

[@PyroInferno110]

I come to realize that one of Kyrie's natural talent is his ability to keep people guessing...they have to guess right or wrong if he's going to shoot or not, which way he's going when dribbling the ball, how he is going to finish, if he is going to score or pass, and more...

[@igorsmiilyyk8273]

Thanks! Please dont stop make free KZbin content, and we wait for Paule Pierce breakdown

[@irvinge4641]

for showing the ball to your defender, you have to have enough air to do that though, so hard to put ball up in air put it down then layup again

[@ahmedolaitan4741]

Inno Irving Estrera show the ball when your still on the ground

[@Dreweybaby]

he does it while he still taking his two steps then jumps

[@nayavelig9159]

That’s true you strengthen your core and your hang time will improve

[@potassiumk7954]

What bout D Rose. I would love a video on the breakdown of MVP Rose's finishes.

[@PyroInferno110]

shah haque his athleticism is what mainly got him his finishes but id say hes a master at the floater and does pro hop floaters too and utilizes the pro hop a lot

[@potassiumk7954]

Leo_Cerberus ya still but he was still a goat finisher. He was faster than Kyrie but was able to control his speed when finishing

[@f.lashby8298]

shah haque I don't think he's as fast as Kyrie.

[@potassiumk7954]

F. Lashby cuz he was way faster

[@FoxyChariot]

shah haque A race between MVP Rose and Kyrie qould result in a Rose victory. But that doesn't mean Kyrie isn't arguably more agile than Rose.

[@Shemzinho]

The greatest finisher ever.

[@Underdog_Basketball]

Do you think the 2 foot finishes led to his recent knee injury (especially the non-jumpstop ones)? I ask because I noticed that when I finish off two while attacking at full speed, with no jump stop, I feel pain in my knees because I'm not able to allow my glutes to do the work on a gather. Dope video btw! One of my favorites and I've seen all of them :)

[@chaosv1123]

Late asf reply but two foot jumps are better for overall knee health. The main reason two foot jums are better cuz you can decelerate and still jump really high and controlled.

[@Underdog_Basketball]

@Chaos V11 Bro... it's too late. Because I never got an answer, I ended up tearing both of my ACLs from jumping off of one foot instead of two! Lol, nah jk! I appreciate you answering my 5 year old question anyway!
