The Extinction of the NBA Small Guard?

[@Jimyjonson]

nah you seen that grizzlies guy bro? that japanese dude is nice

[@robertrawlinsii9372]

So Reed Sheppard was officially measured under 6’2”. I want to say 6’1.5.” I also like what Yukon for Memphis is doing. The short guard has to be an elite shooter and be elite in space and in creating spacing. Great video though.

Is Yuki not Yukon, and I am Hong Kong Chinese

I just want to share something with everyone. Jesus Christ loves everyone. He died for us all and rose. All you have to do is accept Him as your Lord and Savior and He will save you and grant you eternal life in Heaven. Much love for real ❤

i love the analysis but i also want to say, the music taste is absolutely on point.

[@ramtyree]

thanks for the nod! the music is always vital!

This is an interesting analysis! The league has changed in so many ways over the last decade and the decline of the small guard is one change that we don’t often talk about. Great video! Also, love the WNBA hoodie!

@@k_rog5 can’t wait to see what the next 5 years hold…thanks for watching!

A factor you missed is that initially when shooting became important there were less tall players that could shoot at a high level. Because of this revolution taller players coming in had focused more and more on shooting to the point where you get 6ft8 players shooting the same as smaller guards, making the smaller guys obsolete. Sadly unless there are perennial all star small guards coming in, chances are small guards are gone for good basically.

[@ramtyree]

this is a great point! in the future I would love to go deeper into the evolution of shooting bigs and how that’s now almost a requirement for bigs in the league

[@pymtheslime2569]

You got potential man. Your editing and lighting is on point.

[@ramtyree]

I appreciate it man!

[@Ok-hx8xd]

[@HanseloG]

Dope video!

[@ramtyree]

my guy!

[@RumboJumbo]

i like the analysis here, curious if this is just a small blip in the radar or something that's a permanent change over time

[@ahmedosman7238]

sports analysis and quality music…what could be better?

[@davidc.lalnelawma4776]

Awesome content. Just gotta swap the voice and music volumes.

[@ramtyree]

thanks for the tip man 🙏🏾 still trying to nail that part down lol but better to come!

[@younglove3362]

They sound about the same volume length.

[@thecooldino8453]

im gonna make small guards come back to the league, and inspire kids that they can also do it no matter the height

[@Donl_lad]

Investing in you don't fail me 🙏🏻

Tbh I was thinking this when I was watching Cole Anthony play yesterday. He has a lot of hustle on defense but on offense, he struggles as hes too damn short and doesn't have a lot of experience. Tbf, the magic has too many players that can score due to their size and skill set. Cole does great with handling the ball most of the time and does well with play making. I swear he be better in another era.

[@NeonLeonNoel]

I think there’s something to the quickness, being able to maneuver in tight corners, explosiveness, and stamina that is a unique advantage to smaller players that taller players can’t match. And also taller players are more prone to injury. I can’t imagine a 6’10 player being able to run around off the ball like Curry does all game.

[@offbrandcheese]

like the song choice songs about skee lo wishing he was taller lmfao

[@ramtyree]

you get it 😂

[@astashasta1]

Yuki on the grizzlies is under 6 foot I believe hes 5"8

[@SaverioSantorufo-xg7ry]

i hope 5'6" yuki kawamura keeps playing. He's so entertaining to watch, his passes specifically

[@twistedladder3506]

[@ramtyree]

Early days!

[@jakublibiak5311]

I apperciate the Ben Simmons can do it all joke :D

[@ramtyree]

I knew someone would catch it 😂

[@Bluebirdfalling]

Not all legends said good things about Mugs.

[@ramtyree]

@@Bluebirdfalling that’s a true point, you know there will always be the bad whenever there is any good

[@TheLittleLife]

only the point god

[@donquixotedoflamingo9037]

Carmelo runs set plays? Carmelo? The 1 assist per game guy? Carmelo?

[@ramtyree]

Hahaha maybe he didn’t often but I said that he “can run set plays” 😂 good catch

[@JunelAlto]

you forgot to mention Jordan McLaughlin

[@ramtyree]

Good pull, he’s right at that 6’ mark lol
