Man you guys would have the best content on KZbin if you just paid James to give lessons on your play every week. And I'm sure your play would level fast. Win win win.

[@SundayDinkingClub]

Maybe we can do more of these with other pros!

[@wq177]

Amazing insight by James! I’m gonna re-watch and write down notes. Thanks so much for doing this video all of you! Really helpful to hear what he sees.

[@pickleballeffect]

Glad you found some good stuff. I’ve implanted some of the tips too, it’s been great.

[@alexwilson1445]

Great video, James had actionable advice on every clip. Going to be coming back to this many times

[@pickleballeffect]

It turned out better than I thought it would ha there are definitely some good nuggets in there.

[@kimleith1378]

Right to the "tutorial folder"

[@pickleballeffect]

@@kimleith1378 I need one of those

[@mediumdun18]

Great concept and kudos to you guys for putting yourselves up as the students to be critiqued . Would be great to have guest experts sit in.....e. John Cincola

[@mprime007]

Awesome video! James, excellent insights! ❤

[@pickleballeffect]

James is good

[@markfcal]

Great thoughtful tips by James

[@sashagirl357]

Wow, you guys have the best guests on your show! Big Poppa Jimmy in the house! Found his coaching very insightful!

[@fe0g]

amazing - to see how pros think / analyze. Thank you!

[@jhenry129]

Excellent video! Very insightful and I enjoyed James's delivery. Thanks for putting this together.

[@NOT_A_TOP_FAN]

Interesting comments here. I actually find James to be a pretty bright guy, and thought he had good insight. It’s funny how once you get to a certain level in pickleball, it’s almost more a chess match than being a good athlete. You can use some strategy in tennis, but it’s almost the opposite once you get high level, you typically try to blow your opponent off the court…that’s where pickleball becomes pretty different.

[@mxpxman31]

Hahaha! If you get beat with a slice dink, you’re just bad!! Haha! This was awesome!! How much does it cost to have him laugh and tear apart my game?! I’ll pay it! But seriously, I’ve gotta watch this 2 or 3 more times! He gave great insight and useable tips that you would never know without filming and watching it back! I’m starting to do this on league nights as well! Another great pod!

[@pickleballeffect]

He said before we started that he probably won’t do the virtual lessons as much or anymore now that he made some good money with an MLP contract.

[@jimb6683]

tons of gold nuggets! James really breaks things down well

[@pickleballeffect]

Thanks for watching I’m glad you got some good things from it!

[@roman2011]

That was awesome

[@kimleith1378]

[@pickleballeffect]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@imuahayn8082]

Best video , thanks

[@hullrider]

Braydon is "The Professor". Get with it.

[@cschipg4688]

I keep coming back to this masterclass! Anybody know where I can find similar content? A lot of Meh and fluff out there (Briones Pickleball, etc.)

[@pickleballeffect]

I like That Pickleball Guy’s stuff. I’ll have to do more of these though.

[@kyledewaal9332]

Can you guys add subtitles I’m deaf and would love to read this

[@pickleballeffect]

I don’t think we can add them to this one since we already uploaded it but we will start adding subtitles to future podcast episodes. Thanks for bringing this to our attention.

[@jeffbaerpickleball1346]

I'm not sure I agree on the advise around 7 minutes about the speed up in the middle. I think that was a good attack off the bounce to the guy in the red shirt. To me that shot is not necessarily to win but to set up exactly what you got with the chicken wing pop from red shirt. The problem is that your partner was not ready to attack the clear put away pop up and instead elongated the point by dumping a decent but non-threatening dink back to red shirt. Whatever happened after has little to do with the speed up. I don't think the advise is totally unsound our anything like that but in doubles your partner needs to play off your very well timed set-up shot. If he was ready there was a much more efficient winning end to that point.

[@EA_Ritter]

Can you please elaborate on the triangle? I am a little confused about this. perhaps make a viceo?or put angles drawn in the video. Thank you.

[@ruffleshaveridges]

16:20 - Imagine the the target opponent being split in two: a left shoulder side and right shoulder side. Counters coming off the target's left side will either be on time (straight down the middle) or late (right of the aggressor to the sideline - BAD, no one defending there). Counters coming off the target's right side will either be on time (straight down the middle) or late (left of the aggressor but also to the forehand side of the aggressor's partner - SMART, your partner can bail you out). I do wonder if this left shoulder problem is mitigated when attacking closer to the sideline. Closer to the sideline shrinks the triangle where the only reasonable counter is on time (straight down the middle) and you know to expect that because you're the one speeding it up.

[@ruffleshaveridges]

www.katesmathlessons.com/uploads/1/6/1/0/1610286/published/1239940.png?1515899842 imagine this as the triangle - target is the 90 degree angle. Then split that triangle into halves at the 90 degree angle depending on if you're attacking left shoulder or right shoulder

[@cameronc6685]

James is a lot smarter than he lets on

[@pickleballeffect]

Haha yes he is

[@ADJoshua1]

Why is BPJ in portrait mode? 🙄

[@pickleballeffect]

I wish we would have joined on a computer, the video would have come in cleaner but he joined on his phone.

[@wolf-xf6hf]

Drinking game. Take a shot every time James says as we know and you’ll be dead by the end of the video

[@pickleballeffect]
