James Harden The Story behind the Beard
James Harden has become a master in isolation by adding new twists to some of basketball’s best moves. Here’s how he turned one of Stephen Curry’s tricks on its side to create one of his signature moves.Being a great scorer in the NBA has always been about creating space. From Mikan’s drop step to Kareem’s sky hook to MJ’s fadeaway to Hakeem’s Dream Shake, if a player has wanted to get a shot off, he has needed room to let it fly. Those moves once created great position to score around the basket and in the midrange, but as the game has expanded outward, the need for moves to create looks from behind the 3-point line and at the rim has increased. As a result, the NBA’s go-to maneuvers now look more like something you’d seen on a playground, or a game featuring James Harden. One player dribbling the air out of the ball as they size up their defender may not be the brand of hoops that James Naismith had in mind, but they have set up Harden’s groundbreaking game. Through an array of jab steps and herky-jerky fakes, Harden has unleashed a mix of hyperefficiency and prolificness unlike anything the NBA has seen before. The reigning MVP is so effective that some of his go-to shots would be considered “bad” in the hands of most players. RELATED The 3-Point Boom Is Far From Over Steph Curry on the Evolution of Steph Curry To catch up to Stephen Curry’s wizardry, Harden and the Houston Rockets have taken off-the-dribble 3-pointers to another level. The Rockets have built their offense around pull-up jumpers, with Harden leading the charge; the reigning MVP has taken 740 pull-up 3-point attempts this season, nearly twice as many as the next player. Of the 27 players who have taken at least 150 pull-up 3-pointers, Harden ranks sixth in percentage at 36.4. He scores 1.09 points per possession on those looks, nearly the same as he scores in the restricted area. Harden’s stepback 3-pointer is the shot in his vast offensive arsenal that gets the most attention—even from fellow superstars—but another move has quietly also been creating open off-the-dribble 3s for him and players all over the league: the side step. What’s a side step? It’s a quick separation move wherein the ball handler lunges to their right or left before lifting for a shot. Like the stepback, the side step freezes defenders by quickly faking a drive. But rather than taking a hard dribble and pushing off their lead foot to go backward, the offensive player presses off their outside foot and jolts laterally. It’s simple and effective, and it maximizes the 3-ball. “It’s amazing to me that you have the best athletes in the world on him and then he, in one or two moves, can create enough space to get a wide-open 3,” Rockets coach Mike D’Antoni said at a practice earlier this season. “People just don’t do that. It’s almost impossible. … Everything is kind of in slow motion to him.” Players like Harden and Curry have stretched the definition of what is possible beyond the arc, and each has done so using his singular abilities to get his shot off. Curry’s deft handle and fluid motion allows him to dribble into shots more easily than anyone; Harden, meanwhile, built on what’s worked for so long in the NBA to create something new. This is the story of how Harden got there, and why the league is following suit. The origin of the side step can be traced back to the “zero step,” in which the pivot step after a player has discontinued their dribble isn’t counted as one of the two steps allotted before a stop, pass, or shot. According to Ronnie Nunn, a former NBA referee of 19 years and the league’s director of officials from 2003 to 2008, the zero step came about in the 1960s, and creativity bloomed from there. “Now comes the one-two in any direction you want to go,” Nunn said in a phone interview. “Kind of like a Gale Sayers being able to go right and left. Like a crossover but without a dribble.” With the zero step, players could take two steps in any direction they wanted. Mostly, it was forward or backward. The latter gave birth to the stepback, which is when a player springs away to avoid a defender’s reach. “Everybody been using side-step, stepback moves,” Kevin Durant told me before a game. “I remember Kobe using them, T-Mac using them. We’re all students. I don’t think anybody in 2019 is creating anything in basketball. They’re just making everything their own. They’re just adding their own flavor and style to it.” But it’s not all ballet. A more brutish relative of the stepback is the bump-off. That’s when a player springs off direct contact with a defender into a shot. The goal is to create more separation by sending the defender’s momentum forward while the offensive player leans back or to the side.

Michael Jordan Mix - "4 Sons Of A King" ᴴᴰ Credit To: NBA Youngboy/ Youngboy Never Broke Again Subscribe Here https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCs_24LfQ8sXIjlJ-HNf83Gg Michael Jeffrey Jordan (born February 17, 1963), also known by his initials, MJ,[5] is an American former professional basketball player who is the principal owner and chairman of the Charlotte Hornets of the National Basketball Association (NBA). He played 15 seasons in the NBA for the Chicago Bulls and Washington Wizards. His biography on the official NBA website states: "By acclamation, Michael Jordan is the greatest basketball player of all time."[6] He was one of the most effectively marketed athletes of his generation and was considered instrumental in popularizing the NBA around the world in the 1980s and 1990s.[7] Jordan played three seasons for coach Dean Smith at the University of North Carolina. As a freshman, he was a member of the Tar Heels' national championship team in 1982. Jordan joined the Bulls in 1984 as the third overall draft pick. He quickly emerged as a league star and entertained crowds with his prolific scoring. His leaping ability, demonstrated by performing slam dunks from the free throw line in Slam Dunk Contests, earned him the nicknames Air Jordan and His Airness. He also gained a reputation for being one of the best defensive players in basketball.[8] In 1991, he won his first NBA championship with the Bulls, and followed that achievement with titles in 1992 and 1993, securing a "three-peat". Although Jordan abruptly retired from basketball before the beginning of the 1993–94 NBA season, and started a new career in Minor League Baseball, he returned to the Bulls in March 1995 and led them to three additional championships in 1996, 1997, and 1998, as well as a then-record 72 regular-season wins in the 1995–96 NBA season. Jordan retired for a second time in January 1999, but returned for two more NBA seasons from 2001 to 2003 as a member of the Wizards. Jordan's individual accolades and accomplishments include six NBA Finals Most Valuable Player (MVP) Awards, ten scoring titles (both all-time records), five MVP Awards, ten All-NBA First Team designations, nine All-Defensive First Team honors, fourteen NBA All-Star Game selections, three All-Star Game MVP Awards, three steals titles, and the 1988 NBA Defensive Player of the Year Award. He holds the NBA records for highest career regular season scoring average (30.12 points per game) and highest career playoff scoring average (33.45 points per game). In 1999, he was named the greatest North American athlete of the 20th century by ESPN, and was second to Babe Ruth on the Associated Press' list of athletes of the century. Jordan is a two-time inductee into the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame, having been enshrined in 2009 for his individual career, and again in 2010 as part of the group induction of the 1992 United States men's Olympic basketball team ("The Dream Team"). He became a member of the FIBA Hall of Fame in 2015. Jordan is also known for his product endorsements. He fueled the success of Nike's Air Jordan sneakers, which were introduced in 1984 and remain popular today.[9] Jordan also starred as himself in the 1996 film Space Jam. In 2006, he became part-owner and head of basketball operations for the Charlotte Bobcats (now Hornets), and bought a controlling interest in 2010. In 2014, Jordan became the first billionaire player in NBA history. He is the third-richest African-American, behind Robert F. Smith and Oprah Winfrey.

Tremont Waters College Hoops 2k19 Highlights | LSU Tigers | Bob Cousey Award Finalist
Tigers guard Tremont Waters, who circled around defenders for a game-winning layup with 1.6 seconds left to beat 6-seed Maryland Saturday in Jacksonville. Waters has done this before. He made a circus shot to beat Texas A&M early in SEC play, and he also was the driver against Kentucky who got the ball to the rim quickly, allowing Kavell Bigby-Williams to tip the ball in at the buzzer. His clutch gene has put him in the national spotlight in addition to recently being named a finalist by the Bob Cousey Award. The Bob Cousey award is an annual basketball award given by the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame to the top men's collegiate point guard.

44-year old Steve Nash Teaches His Post Moves To Kevin Durant
The 44-year old retired NBA player who was just included into the 2018 NBA Hall of Fame, Steve Nash teaches some of his post moves skills, and balancing shots to Kevin Durant. Nash also spent some of his time mentoring and teaching some of his experiences to NBA superstar Stephen Curry. On September 3, 2020, Steve Nash is the new head coach of Brooklyn Nets. Steve Nash has signed a 4-year deal as the 23rd head coach of the Brooklyn Nets. Back in 2015, Steve Nash was hired in his first season as a player development consultant for the Golden State Warriors, right after the Warriors won the 2015 NBA Finals against the Cavaliers in the Quicken Loans Arena. During his first season with the team, the Warriors produced a record-breaking 73–9 season, although the team fell short in the 2016 NBA Finals to the Cleveland Cavaliers in the Oracle Arena. The next season, the Warriors would win the 2017 NBA Finals against the defending champions Cleveland Cavaliers, giving Nash his first NBA championship in any role. NBA legends Ray Allen, Grant Hill, Jason Kidd and Steve Nash were inducted into the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame last year back on September 8, 2018. Steve Nash, 44, enjoyed a 19-year NBA playing career with the Phoenix Suns, Dallas Mavericks and Los Angeles Lakers. An eight-time NBA All-Star, he won back-to-back NBA Most Valuable Player MVP awards while with the Suns from 2004 till 2006, becoming just the 10th player in NBA history to win the award in consecutive seasons. The 6’3” point guard was a six-time All-NBA performer, garnering First Team recognition three times (2005, 2006, 2007), Second Team once (2008) and Third Team twice (2002, 2003). In 2006, he was named by Time as one of the 100 most influential people in the world. He was appointed to the Order of Canada in 2007 and invested to the order in 2016, and was awarded an degree of Honorary Doctor of Laws by the University of Victoria in 2008. Nash has been a co-owner of the Vancouver Whitecaps FC of Major League Soccer (MLS) since the team entered the league in 2011. In 2012, he was named general manager of the Canadian men's national basketball team, for whom he played from 1991 to 2003, making one Olympic appearance and being twice named FIBA AmeriCup MVP. Make sure you have your ankle insurance, health insurance and life insurance before going against Steve Nash and Kevin Durant himself! ● Kevin Durant shocked the sports world when he left Oklahoma City Thunder to sign a two-year contract with the Golden State Warriors ahead of the 2016-17 season (he can opt out of the contract after one year). Durant has a sizable endorsement haul with Nike Basketball, Beats Electronics, American Family Insurance, BBVA, Alaska Airlines, Sparkling Ice, Panini and NBA 2K. But he has embraced the startup ethos of his new locale with investments in the Player's Tribune, Acorns, Postmates and JetSmarter. Nike signed Durant to a 10-year extension in 2014 worth as much as $300 million, although sales are off the last two years for his signature shoes. Durant's 27.2 career points per game average is the best among active players and fourth all-time. ● Kevin Durant has been really active in charitable donation in 2018. On January 6, 2018, he donates $3 million to the University of Texas where he won national player of the year honors in his lone season before turning pro. On January 17, 2017, Durant became the first of 10 celebrities to match Colin Kaepernick's donation as part of a 10-day initiative in which he'll donate $10,000 a day to a different non-profit organization. On February 25, 2018, Durant has donated $10 million in a partnership with Prince George’s County Public Schools and College Track, an after school program that helps disadvantaged kids get into college. ● Back in 2016, the National Basketball Players Association (NBPA) of which Kevin Durant and Stephen Curry are executives contributed over $15 million a year to fund health insurance plans for most retired NBA players.The plan gives all retired players who played at least three years health insurance until they are eligible for Medicare. Players with at least 7 years in the league get lowered costs, while players who played 10 seasons have their families covered by the insurance plans. ► Voiceover and subtitles narration by JimmyBallers20 ► Visual special effects and video editing created with CyberLink PowerDirector & Adobe Premiere Pro ► Videos, images and music used by JimmyBallers20 are granted with permissions, and commercially licensed by StoryBlocks (https://www.storyblocks.com/) ● FACEBOOK : https://www.facebook.com/jimmyballers20
