Mike James Isolation Shots

Here you will see Mike James attempt to score in various isolation situations in his 2021-2022 season!
Things to consider when studying this film:
How does he get the defender off balance & create an advantage for himself?
What footwork & rhythms does he use off the dribble?
When does he choose to either shoot, attack, change directions, or step back (hint: watch how the defender bites on certain moves or bodies up)?
What type of primary or secondary defenders may he be facing that influence his reactions?
What angle does he take?
What shot decision does he make?
If pulling up for a shot, what footwork does he take to either shoot or create space?
If he gets all the way to the rim, what does he do to create an advantage and put the defense off balance (look for dribble moves, body contact etc.)?
How does he prevent the ball from being stolen, deflected or blocked? (look at angles used off the backboard and ball protection moves)
