I could only get through ten seconds of this vid due to the most awful, grating tone of this dude’s voice.
Why? Was that you? I don't find this voice grating but I do understand his point because there are guys I just can't watch at all. First thing that gets me with some people is when they sound like teens. It makes me think they are irrelevant. Then I hate screechy type voices that viscerally grate my brain. I think a lot of people go through voice training.
Have to say both his and Bronny’s athleticism pops out to me. When they turn it on, they’re faster, stronger and jump higher than 95% of the competition in their spots. That’s a foundation you can build from. Both of them need to be defense focused these first few years.
Yeah when I said that about Bronny about a month ago Astros jumped down my throat and mocked me and told me about all the better athletes there are on the playgrounds. I’m ******* sure there are. And it’s besides the point that they don’t have LBJ’s genes and the knowledge and mindset the kid knows he’s going to have to have to stick in the league … tutored from Pops and seen first hand his whole life. Exactly the same in those regards as Gigi had from Kobe.
I don’t know Bronny so I can’t comment on his mindset or knowledge. But athletically speaking he is top shelf, his lateral quickness pops, people aren’t getting by him, but he can blow by anyone. He can jump into the clouds and he has really strong second and third efforts. However, all of that doesn’t matter if he isn’t actively leveraging it. He doesn’t do that a lot and he isn’t aggressive in using his athleticism… yet. I believe he has the raw tools to be a really excellent defender. That’s my hope.
