He has ticked back up over 40 percent from beyond the arc—and crucially for someone who takes so many in-between shots off the dribble, he has become single best high-volume (at least five attempts per game) mid-range shooter in the league, knocking those looks down at a 49.1 percent clip.
To watch Richard mush into Festus Ezeli at the rim, make an uncontested putback, hook around Harrison Barnes off the dribble, and draw fouls on fast breaks is to know, most intimately, the character of these first two games, and to experience the pure banal letdown that a mismatched series engenders in viewers and fans.
Reminder: Henry Ellenson is in the NBA A symbol of Detroit's rough future: Henry Ellenson, whose claim to fame (in my mind) over the past two seasons has been 1.) exaggerated standing ovations for teammates, with a dry towel around his neck, from the end of the bench, and 2.) an unusual, comically high dribble.
Instead of racing out to the three-point line just to get a hand up and contest the shot, the Blazers want their guys to close out to the touch—that is, getting so tight that a three-point attempt turns into a drive, or situation where the ball-handler picks up his dribble.
In exchange for Cousins, a player best described as Shaquille O'Neal having gone to a weight-loss clinic and come back with a crossover dribble and a bad attitude, the Pelicans had to give up only an old and underwhelming rookie (Buddy Hield), a few draft picks, and spare parts (Tyreke Evans and Langston Galloway).
There are highs ("Off the dribble, nigga ballin', finna cram on it 550 European with the yams on it") and lows ("That shit embarrassing, sleeping on homie's mother's couch / Lost a bundle in that bitch, at least a hundred count"), but we're very lucky to have a talent like Mozzy guide us through his world.
Noah made a killing threading passes all over the court from his station at the elbows; it's likely that Towns will be entrusted from that location even more than Noah, given that he can knock down deep jumpers (50.6 percent on long twos, 34.1 percent on threes) and take his man off the dribble after facing up.
As a result, their smalls got beat back door by Draymond Green (Westbrook was repeatedly victimized); their bigs got beat off the dribble by Stephen Curry (eight of his 13 baskets in Game 7 were made over Ibaka or Adams); and everyone got beat by Klay Thompson from beyond the arc (he had 17 threes in two games).
But regardless, what VW delivered here is pretty cool: it's a compact all-electric that can get somewhere in the neighborhood of 300 miles on a charge, it has a practical amount of interior space, and it has a bunch of weird, concept-y features that'll probably dribble into the company's production cars over the next decade.
Even after Wiggins realizes that his man is trailing the play, his elite athleticism is completely neutralized as he gets blown by, and he provides little effort to contain or recover on the dribble drive: There's no reason Wiggins should've given up such an uncontested floater on that possession, but that's a routine play for him.
Keane, a master artist who has animated iconic Disney characters like Ariel and Aladdin, sat down with Bryant at the start of the project and asked him to take him through everything, from first learning how to dribble the ball, to dissecting his thought process during games as they watched a "20 Greatest Kobe Plays" video on YouTube.
But at a time when a number of high-profile athletes are unwilling to "shut up and dribble," Nike is positioning itself as a brand for them and their fans, and expanding the aspirations of "Just do it" from the the field, court, and track to politics, even if that means losing some sports fans in the process.
On College Basketball DURHAM, N.C. — As North Carolina State's star freshman, Dennis Smith Jr., dribble-strutted down Coach K Court one last time on Monday night to put an exclamation point on the Wolfpack's 84-82 upset of the Blue Devils, many sports fans received an opportunity to take up one of their favorite pastimes: hating Duke.
Markell Johnson drained a half-court shot at the buzzer to give North Carolina State an 80-77 victory against host UNC Greensboro on Sunday afternoon in Greensboro, N.C. Johnson took one dribble and let loose a shot that prevented overtime after UNCG's Isaiah Miller tied the game with a basket from the lane with 2.1 seconds to play.
If you have even the barest appreciation for hard rock or heavy metal—or if, like me, you still remember unwrapping a copy of Master of Puppets on Christmas morning when you were 12 and feeling your blown brains dribble out your ears shortly thereafter—you're going to enjoy a Metallica show, and this was no typical Metallica show.
Irving remains a basket-devouring highlight reel who can take over games at will in ways only three or four other dudes can, but in situations where, in year's past, he'd take his man off the dribble and then pull up for a long two, now he's going off the bounce to whip a perfect pocket pass to a popping Al Horford.
In the second clip, the Knicks get a similar mismatch—but for some reason, Porzingis decides to make an uncertain dribble move: These are also exactly the types of shots that Dirk Nowitzki excelled at during his long and successful NBA career: creating mismatches in the post, and then using his height to calmly and decisively shoot over the top of the defense.
With the Jazz down 2-1 in the series and treading muck without star forward Gordon Hayward, Joe went to work: A hook in the lane, a lazy dribble around a screen for a three pointer, multiple honest-to-God post-ups in the lane against Luc Richard Mbah a Moute, a defensive forward who has several inches on the Armadillo Cowboy.
Many of the Celtics' best sets actually involve Thomas giving up the ball early in the possession, and then looping around the floor to work with Horford in a dribble hand-off pick-and-roll; it gives him a cleaner path to the paint than if he simply gets a high screen or isolates his man at the top of the key.
The Mavericks have absolutely owned the defensive glass when Brunson is on the floor and box-outs like the one below on Sheck Wes Iwundu help clarify why that is: There was also one play against the Houston Rockets that really stood out, where Brunson challenged P.J. Tucker off the dribble, then separated with a short baseline turnaround along the baseline.
In the clips below, watch how Green is too slow to contain Irving off the dribble, and how the Warriors struggle to help protect the rim when Green is forced to guard the ball: This season, Irving has become a more efficient isolation scorer, upping his points per game out of isolation from 2.7 to 5.3 while increasing his efficiency from .
Yet after covering Nowitzki since his first N.B.A. dribble with the Dallas Mavericks, I've been pestering him — just in case this does prove to be his farewell campaign — to let me check in with him periodically to find out what he's feeling and thinking as one of two active 26-year-olds in the league alongside Vince Carter of the Atlanta Hawks.
Kobe was now coaching Gianna's travel team and wanted to introduce her and the rest of the squad to the move known in hoop parlance as "The Shammgod" — which requires the dribbler to bring the ball to the side with one hand to get the defender off balance, then snatch it back with the opposite hand to execute a crossover dribble.
Whether its dating sites, online auctions, source code management, or social media, every service that lets people talk to each other is covered by this awful, looming proposal that treats the internet like cable TV, where big companies license material from each other and the rest of us dribble passively in front of a screen, watching whatever we've been given, unable to upload back.
The nature of those jumpers is also somewhat diversified, more off-the-dribble, less Stand Behind The Three-Point Line Waiting For John Wall To Throw It To Me. But the imbalance, and specifically his tendency to short-circuit a promising drive to the rim with a step-back 18-footer, continues to be what separates Beal from the sky-high ceiling that his talent suggests.
There are quite a few pairs available on Nike, but you'll find everything from remakes of the original 1985 releases and new colorways telling the story of pivotal points in Jordan's career to highly collectible artist collaborations on Stock X. Even if you can't dribble or shoot a basketball to save your life, the Air Jordan 1 is a guaranteed way to elevate your style.
The concept wasn't foreign—Durant has more than enough experience reading defensive rotations off the dribble—and the Warriors still found plenty of success in their playoff opener with typical half-court chaos, plopping Draymond Green or Andre Iguodala at the top of the arc to let them survey for swift split cuts that would eventually lead to a deflating and inevitable reel of dunks and layups.
The N.B.A. is famed for the comparison game it triggers any time a new star emerges, but no one has quite figured out how to size up this 6-foot-26 29-pounder who occasionally needs just one dribble from midcourt to swoop to the rim and does all that scoring without a dependable perimeter stroke to open up the rest of his game.
