BBALLBREAKDOWN pin me please ive never gotten pinned

[@hinchadelrojo19]

never liked anything so fast in my life

[@12incher30]

BBALLBREAKDOWN I will like this but I don't trust these goofs

[@evanmendelson532]

He changed his jumper also

[@t-smoke1132]

Wtf is his new free throw shot?? That is extremely weird. His original was fine, it just needed a bit of tweaking like you said in the video. But then he completely switched it. I'll be very surprised if there is any improvement with this new free throw.

[@boatboystrackclub6528]

Maybe his knees are weak and his arms are heavy

[@makerKID5]

Comment of the day 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

COMMENT OF THE YEAR! FUHHHHHH

Avery Bradley's Son Clever.

[@calbear105]

Shoot. That means he’s gonna become irrelevant and washed up soon, then re emerge by pandering to the left and irrationally hating on the president.

[@tonyabbott5679]

Fultz looking like a MyCareer player without the free throw ace badge.

[@Deoduggy]

Truuu

😂😂😂

[@derektherriault7512]

Now were adding in angles and more cutaways? This channel has become unbelievable since I started watching in 2013. Where else do you find NBA content with this much depth and detail? Keep it up coach, Niick!

[@TheCodkid4life]

^ he said "of".... just lets you know the kind of idiot you're replying to just ignore him

[@jas7374]

Declan Fernandes get off your knees first.

[@Justloo]

Derek Therriault lol

[@dariann]

I was in the bathroom watching this video trying to shit, and right when he showed Fultz' new form, it finally happened

[@bballbreakdown]

Glad I could help!

[@willymuanza]

Lmao

[@conquered.kozmos1395]

LOL

[@mhj626]

[@mrmaker92]

HIS PALMS ARE SWEATY

[@willymuanza]

FelixBinderMusic *Slaps Knee*

[@therealestg9]

maybe that's why he can't shoot free throws

[@SomeGuyNotKnown]

His knees look a bit too weak as well.

[@jayman2jay]

KG Big Ticket Plus his arms are heavy

[@MrUrkel0730]

Might want to check his sweater for vomit as well. His mom made spaghetti earlier last week.

[@manny24lal]

If his shoulder is bothering him to the point where he needs to change his form completely, why is he even playing?

[@bballbreakdown]

+MH_1231 BINGO

[@theloverswineverytime1625]

Truuuuue.

[@AndrewJoseph-c9q]

MH_1231 Yeah he’s most likely done for the rest of the preseason and possibly the beginning of the season (or may come off the bench at first). Would be foolish to have him exacerbate this injury for no reason right now.

[@alfonsowhite7613]

Thank you!

[@boatboystrackclub6528]

Sixers so injury prone... even their players shots are broken 😂😂😂

[@_andre007]

Avery Bradley's Son And there's no cast for it

[@TeachMeEntei]

that has to be the greatest product placement ever designed 😁😂

[@LiquidGoldSwords]

My free throw technique has improved after watching this. Thank you, coach Nick !

[@chefcurry7971]

Who fu*ked his shot? Im confused on who told him to start shooting like that.

[@bballbreakdown]

Did it himself initially, and now I think a coach got him to do what it's looking like now

[@viclavar9298]

Chefsteph for 3 I'm pretty sure his shoulder is injured.

[@chefcurry7971]

BBALLBREAKDOWN i feel bad for him. I thought he was gonna be the best player in the draft, not shooting like that.

[@stuff2z]

BBALLBREAKDOWN what goin on with the those trainers in philly lmao

[@thebutlerdidit365]

Chefsteph for 3 You act like he can't fix his mechanics to what they use to be his shoulder hurts to that can be a factor but you doubting somebody before they even played there first NBA game

[@motorsportfangr]

I want an analysis on Simmons' shooting.

[@bballbreakdown]

I could definitely do this

[@Brandon-gz5en]

BBALLBREAKDOWN can you do Tatums breakdown?

[@therealestg9]

Not too hard to do that- "it's terrible". There, that's all you need to do.

[@evanmendelson532]

BBALLBREAKDOWN can u break down if u think fultz is a bust ?

[@itisnottaken4444]

Minato Namikaze lol Its funny cus that idiot is his dad! But you're right, the thing that bugs me the most about him is that he does everything with his right except shoot. Next summer he just needs to teach himself to shoot right handed and I guarantee hed be more confident shooting

[@Yepitsmedude]

I got a joke... High school 1 free throw

[@WolvesFansince]

Derpy DittHam big man 4 free throw

[@Yepitsmedude]

Wolves Fan since 2017 lol

[@minimaxify]

[@erennazir646]

That instrumental for the video 🔥🔥 good choice coach

[@vincentmskwok]

"The kind of process I can't trust" LOL Coach Nick!

[@emho8564]

Fultz should just go underhand, even that wouldn't look as ugly.

[@shyshka_]

Maybe he eats too much Mom's Spaghetti

[@3roxas]

his form is only like that because his shoulder is injured. Instead of Philly resting him and letting him recover they told him to change his form.

[@locke8guard]

Flexing back the wrist right from the get go is the best advice given

[@immigzsalas]

The way you advertise seatgeek never fails to amaze me.

[@juliankenzo]

how about hack-a-simmons? he's had an awful time at the line so far in the preseason and never has proven to be a decent FT shooter

[@YoMamaRaisedMe]

Or hack-a-Jahlil. Another bad shooter with the ball in his hands

[@SomeGuyNotKnown]

White Embiid So, is he good using his telekinesis or what?

[@ethanlopez9069]

knzo no, hack the team

[@yurhomi4478]

knzo He can't shoot period.

[@MRGilD0]

knzo just need to sag off Simmons. He's gonna brick it anyways.

[@tamicha1]

Making sure you maintain rhythm in the follow-through is the most important aspect of shooting. If I was teaching someone I'd make them focus on what it should FEEL like more than what it looks like. You can tell when if feels right because it looks fluid/there's an ease to it.

[@mddicostanzo]

Awesome video! #TrustTheProcess (And btw love the ad scene as usual lol)

[@mddicostanzo]

Also, I never noticed the knee thing in his form. Interesting.

[@ELjs8]

He puts his knees inward like most great shooters because it produces more concentric power and lets you use your body as a spring to produce more energy

[@kasmeria]

I watched Fultz for the first time last night and i really thought he was joking.

[@anothonygaston1948]

On god, everytime I see a NBA player miss a free throw from now on "Dat boy Pooh Richardson" 😂😂

[@no2deh3rman]

How do you shoot well but suck at free throws 🤔🤔

[@blankx15]

Blocked By JAMES!!23 That's what they are wondering with Fultz. I think he should think less when he shoots free throw and do a one full motion. Use his usual shooting rhythm too.

[@no2deh3rman]

jaselolzako03 one motion is key. But I’m confused because it’s rare to see an nba player with good shooting and but struggles at the line. I can’t even name another one if I tried

[@Oshieez]

Blocked By JAMES!!23 Mental part probably.

[@furuducuebcbfbhhg]

+Blocked By JAMES!!23 iguadala, shoots like 35% from 3 but 50% from the ft

[@no2deh3rman]

LeBron James good point. Iggy has always been a decent 3pt shooter, his mid range is below average though. And he doesn’t shoot off the dribble that well either . But good example I guess

[@cwehden]

the main thing is the motion isn't smooth and efficient enough, that makes it less predictable and less repeatable. It's gone from OK with a few problems to absolutely broken, how has he made it that much worse..!

[@leroyglam3920]

Great video. Thanks coach! 👍🏽

[@bballbreakdown]

+Leigh Arlington thanks!! 👍🏀

[@anitaraman7796]

I love that coach Nick showed the NBA tickets.com commercial and then said you should use seat geek instead.

[@simonkreiser7982]

Hack-a-Fultz won't happen because it doesn't rhyme like Hack-a-Shaq Obviously I'm kidding

[@megumi6499]

Insult-a-Fultz

[@JigsawLV]

+Megumi his free throw form is an insult to basketball

[@BJP1997]

Fuck-A-Fultz

[@gandydancer637]

The NBA changed the rules on off-ball fouls to reduce Hack-a-Wilt decades before Hack-a-Shaq.

[@gandydancer637]

... a little more info: They used to shoot 1-shot fouls, but the 2nd foul in the last 2 minutes was automatically a 2-shot foul. (You'sd also go "in the penalty" after the 5th(?) defensive foul in a quarter.) So teams would "use up" any extra 1-shot fouls as the 2-min mark approached by grabbing an offensive player. The NBA made such fouls, if off-ball, 2-shot fouls so other teams wouldn't just grab Wilt.

[@nicov2k]

Fultz gotta make his shot as smooth Coach Nick's ad transitions.

[@0-Elias-0]

Bill Cartwright be like, "oooh, sweet form, kid."

[@2Addicted2YT]

2:50 in and am anxious for the Coach Nick ad transition.

[@bballbreakdown]

+2Addicted2YT haha!! 👍🏀

[@nicholast.s4764]

this form is bad af. Fultz shud just go back to his old self. this is embarrassing

[@Dr_Manhattan_Phd]

What up coach? Can you do a video on Lonzo's free throws, 3 point shooting, and off the dribble shooting?

[@bballbreakdown]

+bugsbbunny I did one on him a few months ago.. did u miss it?

[@CriticalManimal]

looks like my 3 year old shooting into his fisher price hoop. kid just started and he's already got knee and shoulder issues? hope he has a backup plan.

[@xXR3mEYEXx]

I tuned into the Boston/Philly game moments before he was shooting those free throws and holy shit its been a while since I cringed that hard

[@d1n0_mb]

great analysis coach

[@bballbreakdown]

+ferdymb 👍🏀💪

[@rolandorobles6375]

Great video! Ps. 7:17 was a nasty bucket

[@nickoats5998]

I’ve never understood what’s hard about a free throw, it’s second nature to me I barely have to think about it

[@mikamyllo]

Please do an analysis on Lauri "The Finnisher" Markkanen's shooting!

[@rezanugraha2335]

speaking of FT, what about Drummond improvement from the free throw line? :D

[@RoninWaffle]

Absolutely your best ad ever, I'm dying. "Don't take credit from your kid like this psychopath."

[@MrGetwellsoon]

Leave Fultz alone... 'Cause this opportunity comes once in a lifetime (yo)

[@milesroberto7733]

Coach - The biggest reason he is missing is his leg drive is discontinuous with his release. He pumps his legs, but all that momentum is gone when he initiates his release. Simple fix. Initiate leg drive later. The next biggest reason is he is arching his back backwards and babying the ball.

[@lebryanthoward9416]

Why do players not jump on the free throw line?

[@RageModeIII]

LeBryant Howard easier to have a consisted timing if ur not jumping

[@tomsmith4452]

LeBryant Howard Actually some do .If u look at Hassan Whiteside he did switch to jump shot on ft line and had great success.But he doesn't do it all the time because they told him it could be bad for his legs....

[@gandydancer637]

Hal Greer is the only player I recall doing that. 80% career ft%. www.basketball-reference.com/players/g/greerha01.html

[@gandydancer637]

kzbin.info/www/bejne/jZCsdGpod7WHe5o

[@thagreatest10]

Wilt chamberlain would dunk the ball on freethrows. So they prohibited jump shot freethrows

[@joey1820]

Yo coach I need a confident boost in games I freeze up but when I play pickup I play like i'm mj how can I stay confident

[@andrevicious5191]

I will never understand how so many nba players struggle with they're free throws they can do so much but FREE throws

[@reprobatemind6194]

Fultz's real FT form from college, not whatever this new thing is(injury), is fine. His issue is moving his feet. You can see that he isn't lined up properly by his release on his misses. His mind tries to correct and he pushes with his off hand. Hence the left to right misses. Don't move your feet and don't lean back. Follow through. Easy fix.

[@garrickpagel9677]

5:15 is the best thing I've ever seen

[@marz4021]

Why the hell would Philly take him at #1 if he hasn't figured out his free throws. What's worst is he's a point guard so you could foul him near the 3pt line and not have to worry about him getting an And 1 like shaq or Howard would do because they were centres that played near the rim. This FT issue with Fultz will prevent him from becoming a dependable star for the Philly

[@Ilovelamp-bk7gb]

PlanetofMarz because you can improve your FTs with time. It was the one real knock on his game

[@marz4021]

Ilovelamp 2345 actually if you watch the video it points out that bad free throw shooters percentage consistently stays the same. Howard, DJordan, Shaq and those guys are centers now image having a point guard that always has the ball avoid getting fouled in late game situations. Terrible draft pick.

[@marz4021]

[@boombow2433]

If he was missing freethrows with his old form It shouldn't matter that he changed it. He's either going to keep missing or get better from the free throw line

[@vince3139]

i dont understand the whole shoulder injury thing. if he's hurt why is he playing in preseason? why does he need to change his shooting form for a temporary injury? like im confused as hell.

[@bballbreakdown]

+vvvvvvvvv I hear you!

[@daviz2068]

Damn that ad at 5:17 is killer

[@nathanbunyon7642]

I am so tired of that NBA tickets commercial. This was so much better 😂😂

[@bballbreakdown]

+Nathan Bunyon 🤣😂👍🏀

[@anitaraman7796]

I like how this video is made.

[@Peek935]

Coach back at it again with the hilarious ass ads 💀💀

[@Magicstockton]

Good video coach.

[@tylerhatch8962]

I must say you have mastered the sponsor plug haha

[@bballbreakdown]

+Tyler Hatch haha, thx!

[@Shinobi6407]

It feels like that ticket ad has been used for like 10 years now. Lol

[@snomelc920J]

For a lot of players its not really the aim, its too much or too little distance, i think fultz just needs to step back further from the FT line about 1 foot, with his original unorthodox shot. idk..

[@jonygspot]

I'm not a Sixers fan but this kid will be a great player free throws can be worked on if that's the only red flag... eh

[@thatnativeking1333]

The seatgeek add was hilarious

[@rodelbalasabas7764]

his shooting form from the 3pt line and perimeter looks good, then how come his free throw doesnt? i dont understand..

[@caesarves]

Coacheneral Nikolai, I vishing to tell you det dee *base line for arc angle not parallel to court* of beskedboll

[@JamesWalterDavis]

Well played Seat Geek ad.

[@sbeallvln]

Balance the shot so the power goes from the floor through the ball into the hoop.

[@yosoydrum3004]

That was the best seatgeek ad ever lmao

[@bballbreakdown]

+Jason C. Lol, thx!!

[@Markid999]

I think there can also exist a factor of him having lack of confidence and that may also lead to such a sudden change of mechanics instead of trying to master his own natural one. I say this cause we've seen many players with terrible mechanics who still manage to shoot FTs

[@Chris4127basket]

he's talented, but not sure if he'll improve that much, some guys picked after him will be great in the league (imo) in the future

[@ronaldsergio4829]

He needs you badly coach!!! Damn, and im supposed to be looking forward on how their season would turn out!!!

[@lakers1436]

He's making Lonzo's form look good

[@PapaMatt107]

I think he just needs to find a shooting form where he's comfortable and get consistent with it. In time his shots will eventually fall. Kevin Martin had terrible shooting form and yet he's one of the best FT's / shooters in the NBA throughout his career....

[@goharderthanyesterday3935]

Well said

[@loadhmmmhmmm]

Yeah definitely. In the same game, he shot free throws completely differently, that's just not gonna work

[@ej4346]

It's a mental thing rather than physical. I've seen players with weird shots but still makes a higher percentage.

[@GodWarsX]

On some of his misses, part of his stroke is to automatically lean in to smack his teammates hands, lol

[@R4vel]

Redick needs to give him and Ben some tips, they should be inspired because of how well Redick is on the line

[@bryantlucas6006]

HE HAS A NICE FORM, IT'S JUST A TEMPORARY FIX UNTIL HIS SHOULDER HEALS

[@Brazillianboi69]

That transition to seat geek tho lmao

[@4szns761]

Lmao, that seat geek move was slick

[@Matt-nt2lm]

after watching this it kinda helped me

[@bballbreakdown]

+Matteo T awesome, I was thinking there’s some good general FT knowledge in here 👍🏀

[@bogartdimalanta3619]

his right shoulder hurts coz of new ft shooting form...lol

[@aspi1514]

didnt understand anything coach nick said cause i was rapping over him had to watch the video again

[@inquizative44]

It's Fultz's concentration and focus, there is nothing wrong with his form.

[@tope115]

I would not at all be surprised if the Celtics Headoffice saw this when they traded down to Tatum.

[@kingnoir7093]

No matter whats ur knees position, its all about the flick of the wrist

[@iamanironman4141]

Damn that was a good vid!

[@user-lb7pt6jb3o]

Nobody will have to resort to hacking vs philly very often

[@freddyquijada7189]

Was interested in the video until the ad came out

[@gurunggaurab6856]

His form was better before when he was in college he just have to work on some of the mechanics like don't hitch when you go to the set point

[@MrPangsky]

Fultz shot makes lonzos form look good lol

[@alonwiesz9397]

nice video coach u should do more shooting analysis videos like that

[@theheebs100]

I don't think we will see Hack a Fultz. his free throw shooting is bad, but as someone else mentioned his 65% clip translates to 1.3 PPP. that would a historically elite offense if it could be sustained. What I do think you will see is that when Fultz has a attempts at the rim he is going to fouled. He is going to get fouled hard and consistently. Teams are going to try to make Fultz scared to attack the rim and also make him earn his points at the stripe when he tries to drive.

[@NarutoLuvRamen]

can you do a kyle kuzma preseason video!!

[@travz21]

This is what a bust looks like. Ainge is a genius.

[@purely.genuine]

I feel like there's a certain teammate of his he could be reaching out to for help seeing as they are LITERALLY one of the best free throw shooters of all time.....but what do I know lol

[@GamingWitAstro]

I don’t understand why younger players don’t go to the vets for help he has arguably one of the best shooters J.J Redick who’s a 89-90 % FT shooter I’m pretty sure he could show him some tricks on becoming a better FT shooter

[@anthonyb1231]

It makes me legitimately sad seeing fultz’s face as he struggles to make a free throw 😥

[@Willie0211]

How did he go first...

[@kevinhunt8861]

Yes we will!
