#BrooklyNets Kevin Durant Works Out In Los Angeles Mamba Sports Academy with Mike James & Adam p Harrington , Narrated by Eddie Gonzalez Brought to you by @TheBoardroom
That's why hes great. Always working on his game and implementing new moves. When he has that righgt and left hook shot it's just gonna add more to his repertoire
MF should improve his conditioning and overall brute strength . He got bodied like a bitch all playoff long , that's why i dick ride J and Kobe cause dem mf had their craft on lock and they were beasting on the strength side of thing . Leonard worked out all year long like he did 9 to 10 in the pen he's straight looking like a beast .
@@AK-hw9ij You gotta do what you gotta do for yourself. If the Nets come out this year and Kyrie still missing hella games and Ben Simmons head still aint right, everyone criticizing KD for trying to leave are gonna have to eat a fat plate of crow. KD is 34 and can’t spend the last years of his prime with some crappy organization not good enough to win rings regardless of the contract. Also keep in mind when he signed that contract they still had Harden and there was no covid mandate keeping Kyrie from playing.
@@0-2-1 passing and rebounding are not at elite levels. They are certainly capable but that is not what their game revolves around. Two-way players? Absolutely. Both can score and defend among the best. KD cannot be the best all around player you've seen when Lebron and Jordan exist
@@jstdun I didn’t get to see MJs prime only Wizards days Id probably have him first or second though and Lebron can barely shoot 70% from free throw so id basically be disrespecting other greats who had no flaws if Lebron was best I saw.. I got Lebron 4th after Kawhi Leonard though. By the way Kobe and KD both can pass and rebound at a high level they showed it many times even though they prioritized scoring you must’ve not seen them in their primes. Kobes teammate said a story that he told Kobe he couldn’t get triple doubles and he bet him 5k he would get one the next game and was 1 shy of triple double by half time lol you should do some research also Kobe exiting his prime had 15 rebounds as a guard in NBA finals game 7 while struggling on hurt knee and broken finger vs Celtics cus he was struggling probably due to his finger on shooting hand being in a cast. Lastly I firmly stand on what I said with no doubts or hesitation what so ever.
@@0-2-1 you pinpoint Lebron's free throw shooting. What about the fact that Kobe never had a season shooting 50%? Or his career three point average was 33%? You can cherry pick stats all day. All these players you've listed are great two-way players. But gimme a break putting Kawhi ahead of MJ and Lebron as "overall players". Overall does not mean strictly mean scoring and defense. It means every facet of the game (scoring, passing, defending, rebounding). Making the right play - whether that is scoring or passing.
The whole time I’m watching this video I was just staring at the big difference size between his legs and how ever shoes he has on look like they belong to Shaquille 😂🤣
I like how people want to be mad at KD for being so defensive but WE the fans did that to him when he joined Golden state. This man went from being the most loved to the most hated NBA player in a span of a day cause of a decision he had all the rights to make. His name was dragged through the mud and more.So what do you expect a person to be like after that. He gave the GSW two championships and they shitted on him when they won this year like wtf and would’ve gave y’all three if never got injured against Toronto
The reality is in-between... KD is a baller... one of the best of all time actually... could challenge MJ and Kobe as the 🐐 based ONLY on his skillset... But... he's a fragile narcissistic superstar with superego that in fear of remaining ringless in the middle of his prime, joined a 73-9 team that went to the Finals and also beat him in the Conference Finals... without doubt the weakest free agency decision of all time... after seeing how it backfired in the eyes of the old players but fans as well, KD completely doesn't care anymore and goes full villain mode (Twitter battles, trade demands)... so when he retires people will remember a natural baller but in order to avoid becoming another Tracy McGrady or Carmelo Anthony, he made the stupidest decision ever (no one would tell him anything if he just signed elsewhere and won... no one criticized him for joining Brooklyn for example)
Why can’t both be true? He is a ring chaser-and he busts his ass training. Doesn’t change the fact that he’s trying to dip out on a contract that hasn’t even started yet!!!
Watched him since he was 7 playing rec league, same age as my son. Columbia Park Rec. Seat Pleasant Rec. PG Jaguars AAU DC Blue Devils AAU Suitland HS, 9th National Christian Academy, 10th Oak Hill Academy, 11th Montrose Christian, 12th Prince George's County MD to the bone. Must be the water.
@@ZTGTHEGAMER That was game 7 lol the series was going to be over in 5 if Nets were healthy. You would’nt have to ask what am I talking about if you knew basketball lol
I don’t really think there’s a correlation between leg size and injuries because injures happen to tendons and bones; leg size is just about muscle size.
Pick and roll wise ,yes James is more effective than Kyrie, who proved he was the worst point guard in the playoffs. Only thing is ,Mike James is 5 ft 11 at best ,and there's already too many small guards on the roster. That's the problem.
@@marcusmessiah19 nah bro youre wrong. Both Kyrie and KD is not at best at 1st round. KD might shot 26 points but bro he is 38% FG and 33% 3pts but Kyrie is 44% FG and 38% 3pt. They both are bad. Tbh, nets fans always blame Kyrie without reasons🤦
And you think Mike James is a consistent player too? Mike james literally have .335% 3pt and .370% FG. Though he is a bench player, he still need to be consistent
One of the wettest shooters to ever play the game
why u word it like that😭
@@everettmellott82 ain’t nothing wrong with it but I see where you was getting at.
🥵💦 a creamy finish by kd
@@everettmellott82 wettest lolol
@@dolphin_fed743 ewwwwww thats funny. He’s bangin’ em! Lmfao!
Every hooper knows 1 player u don’t wanna play against is tall skinny dude with handles 😂
Big dudes get tired faster, thin tall dudes put in work with endurance.
Or a left handed player you didn't know was left handed
U jus described me😂
nah for me it's the overweight dude cause they just gonna run you over in pickup and ain't nobody gonna agree with you if you call a charge lol
Or sombody with ugly jumper but makes the 3 consistently🤦🏾♂️
A man that big shouldn't be able to move that gracefully. I'm glad we get to witness Kevin Durant live
I love how he practices his moves at game speed. This is one of the hardest things to get young players to understand.
K.D's Middy is unstoppable 🔥🔥🔥
mike james is dangerous. hell of a cold hooper. one of my favorites to watch.
Sad he didn't get fair shot with suns
That's why hes great. Always working on his game and implementing new moves. When he has that righgt and left hook shot it's just gonna add more to his repertoire

Honestly one of the best shooters in the game and he can drive
Never seen someone as complete as him is a statement reserved for people like KD and em
That shot is pure
KD is built different!
All KD want to do is play ball ..... his love for the game is unbelievable
Young bros. This is a lesson about being a craftsman. The mindset is the same in any craft in and out of sports.
You gotta work so hard to be 7ft and move like a guard. My back couldn't but that's what it takes to be the best.
The day he fully embraces the nickname of the slim reaper. It's closed curtains for the league. It's gonna b a real rough season for EVERYBODY ELSE.
Nigga movin fast asl off the dribble
My opinion the best in the league and has been the best in the league. One day fans are going to give Slim Reaper his well-deserved respect
At least we know him and Mike James still friends
Bro really can move for how big he is
IN MY OPINION the dribble pull up is one of the deadliest moves in basketball
So simple! I hate shooting a bunch of threes . I love post faded and midrange especially mid pull ups sheesh 🔥
@@moddedri3108 super deadly dude. Or the head fake dribble step back fade middy? Super tuff 😤😤😤
@@jamesmonroe7431 you know a little something my brother 🔥😂🦾 but seriously man
Any shot off the dribble really....
I agree. I think the mid range game is one of the most beautiful aspects of basketball. An art that's been kind of lost in today's nba.
OMG he should be in the NBA
2k15 demi god fr
no lie I just got 2k15 again just for MVP KD
He need to work on his loyalty rating 😂
Seems to be 100% loyal to himself. And that’s 🔑
@@djumpfarda more like, and that’s ALL! He’s trying to dip out on a contract that hasn’t even started yet! That’s bull shhh.

With the exception of Kobe Bryant, KD is the best all around basketball player I’ve ever seen in my life
Easily the best scorers. But "all-around" game isn't what I think of.
@@jstdun Kobe and KD can do everything in basketball at a high level I want you to name one basketball skill they lacked lol ill wait
@@0-2-1 passing and rebounding are not at elite levels. They are certainly capable but that is not what their game revolves around. Two-way players? Absolutely. Both can score and defend among the best. KD cannot be the best all around player you've seen when Lebron and Jordan exist

Meanwhile on ESPN:
“how does this affect Lebrons legacy”
Facts
That nigga 7’2” 😂😮💨✌🏾
he so tall n skinny bro iss crazy😭real life slender man shiit
He got the best jumper in the game without question
CANT BEAT THEM JOIN THEM. THATS THAT POST WORKOUT ROUTINE
Arguably the best skilled 7' to play. Of course Giannis might argue that.
I think KD is definitely more “skilled” but Giannis could argue that he’s more dominant
KD's got a Smooth jumper
It’ll never be another KD
I LOVE HIS FORM
How you gonna put James in the title and not show him hoop?
He need to sit his ass down somewhere lol
I hope he stay with the nets and shut all the haters up and bring a ring to Brooklyn
First time I’ve seen him walk thru a doorway lol
The whole time I’m watching this video I was just staring at the big difference size between his legs and how ever shoes he has on look like they belong to Shaquille 😂🤣
Ong 😂
He 6'11 lol he ain't gone be wearing a size 12 or 13.
Bro thts all I can focus on SHHHLOOONG ass shoes lol 🤣
@@td96OU I think it’s the fact that he’s pretty skinny for his size and his ankles compared to his shoes is just crazy
Those are the biggest damn bedroom shoes I’ve ever seen lmao
Beautiful to watch KD workout man
Those pull ups are butter.
His jumper so cold
Best player in the league 💯
Yea mike James goat 😭
The same guy that got swept? The same guy that Giannis eliminated last year? Gtfoh Giannis is the best player in the world kd fanboy.
The best in the league and has been the best.
Mike james aka skip bayless 2.0 is relevant now only because he's hot taking steph curry
NETS NEED MIKE JAMES BACK
Who?!

How did GSW shit on him? Genuine Question.
Fr
I've noticed that bigs who last long have good foot work.
He said “tag someone else who lies about there height” yeah lemme just hit up Bronny real quick 😂
Bro that’s a 7 footer moving and shooting like that😳
Espn: KD is a snake he isn't loyal to any team, he just wants easy championships.
Reality: KD bussing his ass training to be a better baller.
The reality is in-between... KD is a baller... one of the best of all time actually... could challenge MJ and Kobe as the 🐐 based ONLY on his skillset...

You can work hard and still be a douche
Why can’t both be true? He is a ring chaser-and he busts his ass training. Doesn’t change the fact that he’s trying to dip out on a contract that hasn’t even started yet!!!
If mentally and physically he is healthy consistently he's the best player ever
That’s good work KD
Tf do you guard that, 7ft fast as hell with a jumpshot
Too smooth 🔥
The angles are crazy
All game reps. No wonder hes a beast
My boy VISIONSOFGETTINIT

KD nice asf
He really needs to be working on his intangibles, most importantly, team loyalty.
Slim reaper facts! Look at those legs
so smooth
Them shoes the reason why we lost to the bucks in the playoffs
Hardens hamstring and Kyries ankle are not shoes bro
@@0-2-1 what are you talking about kd missed a game winner to win the game if his size 18s werent over the line we wouldve won.
@@ZTGTHEGAMER That was game 7 lol the series was going to be over in 5 if Nets were healthy. You would’nt have to ask what am I talking about if you knew basketball lol
He stole my moves!!!
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Everytime I see his legs I cant help but worry
I don’t really think there’s a correlation between leg size and injuries because injures happen to tendons and bones; leg size is just about muscle size.
Mike james a trainer now😂
One of the greatest ever I wish he was a Sixer 👍😎
Learned the last two workout methods from steph
El mejor kd from Dominican Republic
Man’s doing finger work to troll his oops 😭😭😭
Liking the mid range practice. I want some KD's.
KD goat
The swept snake haha😅
I'm surprised they still cool after Mike told what KD said
What he say? Cuz u just cappin🧢
Is this the mike James that threw him under the bus 🤣🤣🤣
🤣
That’s my Dawg ☑️
Mmkay, if you say so. Haha
This is dope bro🫶🏾🐐
Man Mike James so slept on!!! #KD #NoMercy
And just think...he gets payed millions....millions to go in and do this everyday....millions. let that sink in. 😐
Ye that already sank in for me
What’s wrong?
I’m sure alot more went into it then how it sounds and looks
@@trisk902 good, well sink it in again! 😐🤨
Then why don't u do it and get paid millions?
Young folks pay attention, don’t just chuck up 3’s and work on step backs. Diversify your game.
Sign Mike James again please

I truly wanna see him try to pick up a penny without bending down
Dude working out in a public gym? Idk if he is or not but if he is, that’s dope.
Had To Practice Situationals like what happened on the Boston Series.
Good footage
Slim reaper 😂 i love it
Thts cool nd all but where the defense drills at
Don't need em, those are for role players
U sound dumb the way he got swept he need to lock in on defense foh goof
He is soooo good at jumpshots!!!!!
Practice. Makes. A. Good. Player. Good. Players. Practice. Makes. Player. A. Great. Baller. Like. K.D. Chef. T.
I wanted to see more Mike James to be honest.
He’s good at basketball
Mike's workout are more realistic for my height, bruh is unique!
That hood 7 got on is sooo tufff!!!
The cupcake is probably taking his burner phones to his work outs
I meet his trainer @ hoop mountain back in 97 good dude
That boy wear a size 22 shoe 😂
Man I would have loved to see KD and Bron play together or KD and AD with a solid leader like Cp3
He need to be in the weight room
