I can't believe he's an 18th pick. Heat got a gem.
Loved him at UCLA- I didn't know his game would translate this fast. This could be start something very beautiful for the Miami heat.
The real mp
He fell to 18 as punishment for staying at UCLA for 4 years. NBA teams (other than heat) want the 1 and done kids.
Lakers should pick him Lol
Yet again
Love this style of basketball... I am tired of "step back" threes. I want to see rebounding, and drives to the basket... Jaquez Jr. is great to watch.
Jaquez is a natural, the kind of person that understands that you let the feeling, the flow, flow through you. No game or opponent is too “big.” Can’t be taught but he gets it.
Opposite of Bam tbh
With butler as his vet it’ll give him a good step ahead mentally
Solid all around game. Also, no floppin and no showboating. Just hard nosed basketball. Great pick up by the Heat!
Jaime is becoming my favorite Miami player. He seems fearless and focused.
Me too :) alot of confidence
1st Team Rookie without a doubt. He could even make a run at 6th Man of the Year
Hell no he ain’t winning 6MOTY
@@noahluck-smith5439who you got instead?
@@kandyfloss6bJordan Clarkson can easily win that. Y’all gotta stop being delusional. I love Triple J but they not giving him ROY nor 6 man of the year. Stop it
@@AntcmbHeatJordan Clarkson shooting very inefficient
@noahluck-smith5439 who doing better?
His handle is way under rated.
Miami has been really shaky in the 4th quarters, they have no point guard aside from Lowry. When Lowry is out sometimes they have Jaquez run point in the clutch just because he has one of the more secure handles on the team.
@@bladerunner12 That's true. Outside of Lowry, the only other PG they have is RJ Hampton, and he's not fully ready yet. So Jaquez or Herro is the one bringing the ball up the Court unless it's a fast break
Attacks, defense, team worker.. 👍 I like that I can see, very complete
Jaime Butler Jr been Insane.
Future of Miami
This kid reminds me of the kind of basketball i grew up with and loved. Post moves, ball handling, physical contact, and smarts. That's what made basketball great before they ruined the game with the bogus 3 point contest every night.
This! He reminds me of Kobe in the paint, he really sells those fakes. Those eurosteps and breaking through defense like Wade is insane!
THAT’S MY ROOK RIGHT THERE 🇲🇽🔥
This man does not look like a rookie! What a great pick
JJJ is the missing piece for Miami heat culture, this dude is simply amazing, the fadeaway against LBJ i really love that one🥰
Jaret jackson jr
Is Mexican not related to your Cuban heritage. The only we share is the language but we’re not the same
@@rafaelmendoza4668I’m Mexican too and Latinos share our common Spanish ancestors
Or do you think native Mexicans were 6’6 and white skinned like Jaquez? lol
Future superstar
He has a move of mamba mentality
That’s exactly what I said he must look up to Kobe
That’s my rookie right there go heat🔥🔥
bro just got this in november and already got another 10 minute highlight love this dude on the heat he's gonna be part of our core for years
Miami almost never misses with these young players.
It's the culture, bro. Once they leave Miami tho, the magic is gone. Example: In Miami, Tyler Johnson was a consistent 3 and D guy, J Winslow was a point forward, Gabe Vincent was the 2nd best player last season, and Josh Richardson drives to the basketand isos were phenomenal. Good thing JRich returned. He needs his groove back.
@@underthebridgetroll9816 don't forget Nunn
Gabe isnt playing good? @@underthebridgetroll9816
Dudes insane. Has every skill under the sun. Another Jimmy off the ball too
GINOBLLI HES A NEW SCHOOL MANU BUT TALLER..
@@MikeLARRY-rp4mlnah I see him more of a butler. I see why people say Gino but Jamie more “natural” while manu more sneaky “crafty”. Also I think he’s pointing to be a starter instead of a six man
That's the plan. Also when Jimmy sits, Jaime can be baby Jimmy.
How did team scouts miss this guy!? He's a gem of a catch for Coach Spo! He's definitely getting more encouragement n' tutelage from Jimmy, Kyle, and K-Love!
DA SAME WAY SCOUTS SLEPT ON KAWAHI DA YEAR HE CAME OUT, IT HAPPENS..
AGE
@@crapjuice470exactly
K love oh stop it he should of retired years ago
He is fearless. Triple J is the kind of player that will fit Heat's culture.
Old school at its best,congrats young man you’re inspiring the future generations ❤
love seeing the love for a guy that embodies the type of basketball i grew up watching as a kid. tough and always grinding!
Thats not a rookie thats a 10 year veteran
for him to be this poised & providing instant impact, goes to show how elite the heat are as an organization. From scouting to developing, I'm proud to be a fan
He played 4 years in college this is normal for guys that are 22 as rookies, downside is usually the ceiling isn’t much higher
Viva Mexico 🇲🇽 Jaquez
No es mexicano.
Si es pendejo.@@josemanuelv5320
@@josemanuelv5320Es de descendecia Mexicana.
un pocho
@@watpronouncedwotlikeabrit y eso que. Todavia es Mexicano pinche jente invidiosa
DRIVES LIKE A POWER FOWARD HANDLES LIKE A POINT GUARD AND DOMINATES LIKE A CENTER!
Dude, he got that Jesus of Nazareth look. Miami Jesus. He’s got plenty of potential at an organization with a great development program.
😂😂😂😂😂good one!
nah he got that Pablo Escobar look and he plays in miami, u cant make this shit up.. love it
he looks like a conquistador lol
That has to be his new name!!!!!
He runs so hard 😮 I might be tripping but I see flashes of Bron and Jimmy in him but he still has his own play style…
Can’t put a finger on it but he’s dope either way.
People always compare him and Jimmy's game.
Honestly the footwork and ability to finish through contact is impressive as hell. Quick first step and hes not afraid to play D i love it
with that performance consistency, i can't believe he is still Rookie, it just like an All Star performance. Bright future for Miami Team on several years
Just a few of my favorite things: 1.)Love-Lowry-Jaquez ball movement, reminds me of 86 Celtics 2.) 2-handed JAMS! 3.) Graceful spin moves near the basket.
JJJ is Butler's successor with Larry Bird's soul. Maturity and intelligence are his strengths. He is a very good listener and fast learner.
well said!
I love this dude as a Celtics fan but what on Earth does he have to do with Larry Bird? Cause of his complexion..?
@@KingJerbear Bro honestly just bully balls the entire league with a cold ass face. I don't think that's Larry Bird soul though, if anyone really has Larry Bird soul on our team it's Tyler Herro because that mf never stops talking shit mid game while cooking people.
And a little Bill Walton.
Idk bout Larry bird Jamie Mexican also. I don’t see nothing of his game compared to bird. He doesn’t even trash talk so not even his personality
That twice right,Yo this man is amazing I never see a player like him Just the way he score he have a complete game.
JR.....IT'S THE MAN WOW CAN'T IMAGINE IN 2 YEARS HOW GOOD HE WILL BECOME
He’s sooo good, very disciplined player and individual💪🏽
He should be in the Roy conversation for sure
He’s top-3 right now
@@zver_nagibatorand he's closer to 1/2 than 4
If Chet didn’t get injured last season. ROY race would be between Wemby and Jaquez right now.
Playing like a 5 year vet! Let's Go Heat! 🔥🔥🔥
The real ROY
pure facts but awards are based off popularity not wins, not impact to wins etc etc just who do people like more wemby and no matter what anyone does.. wemby is going to win it because the nba needs him to.. even if the heat win a championship and jaime is top 3 player on the heat they will still say he didnt have a better year than wemby and chet and they will say miami is a better team than okc so it doesnt count and find way to contradict themself and say miami is also better than the spurs but yet okc is is number 2 in the west.. spurs are dead last.. so they will say the east is weak or its not wemby fault he doesnt have chemistry with his team so we need to have sympathy or its not chet fault he doesnt get the ball like that because he plays with a superstar or something else along the lines
If wemby and Chet are not existing,,for sure JJJ will be the ROTY...
The way he runs with the ball is really interesting to me idk why, it’s really smooth and flowy
FEARLESS
As a hornets fan, I’m hurt that Brandon Miller didn’t win this month, but man has Jaime Jacquez been torching the league. What a steal!
Them trash ass hornets 😂😂😂 he doesn't deserve a nomination for that he's no difference maker like Jamie is for miami he's filling in for our leader and best player and doing a damn great job as a rookie you don't get this type of production this early.
@@timfwaygo2537 Brandon miller been averaging bout 15-16 points and can knock down the 3 ball shooting over 40% from distance. He can also get hot and score 15 in a quarter. I do think Jaime Jaquez deserves it but I gotta disagree with you on Brandon not making an impact
@@MelogoatedfrUnderstand the situation, he’s doing all this with a Stacked Heat. Bam, Lowry, Herro, Butler and Robinson. There is little to no room for JJJ but he is getting it done. Who on the Hornets is killing it? Lamelo is injured, aside from Bridges? Of course Brandon Miller can go off any night.
JJJ been doing everyting Brandon Miller does but better, that's why he won
@@Funnydaliano you got a point. That is exactly why Jaime is better. I know he is better I’m just saying as a hornets fan I’m disappointed Brandon didn’t win. I don’t want to be arguing about Brandon being better if it’s not true. Congrats to Jaime👏
Joe Cronen is the real MVP for declining the trade offer for Damian Lillard which includes Jacquez.
FUTURE STAR OF THE HEAT
Keep building, Jaime!!! Go Bruins. Go Ventura County. Love to see this!!!
Admirable, tiene muy buen estilo de juego, ojalá su carrera siga en ascenso.
Heat culture is dope in finding gems
"¡Qué logro para el novato en la NBA! En su primer año, ya es el mexicano más destacado en la liga. Su ascenso llega en un momento crucial, ofreciendo una brillante alternativa en un tiempo difícil para deportes populares como el fútbol y el boxeo en México."
he aint mexicant, hes american!
@@sanzul1 Play for México
@@sanzul1Mexican background
@@sanzul1well technically born in California, so mexico
You can tell his teammates like playing with him. Very smooth
It’s crazy that this is potentially the worst he’s going to be! Only 22 and already has such a polished game.
The guy got defensive highlights too for just a month. Hes gonna be special
Es tan solido este cabrón cuando juega, que aprenda todo lo posible en Miami con Spoelstra, Buttler, Pat y compañía, que orgullo saber que a base de esfuerzo esta en un enorme y chingón plantel.
I know it's early but he's looking to be the best heat draft since dwade. They might just win a chip this season of they can maximize this kid's talent and use him well.
😂
Great body positioning on the dribble, always seems to know his position on the floor, great court awareness.
Agree
What a steal. Insane
I like his game!! He's one of my new fav players to watch now
How can you not feel his energy, he’s the flash
The heat have done it again. Every time we think they’re about to decline, they find a new player who fits the culture perfectly and they don’t miss a beat.
Not only they passed on Jaime for scoot but they passed on Jaime Tyler Duncan jovic on the dame trade 😂Blazers Gm messed up bad 😂
Lol
Get him his own signature shoes right away💪🏀🔥
MAANNN JAQUEZ IS SO GOOD ITS SCARY BECAUSE HES WIT HEAT NATION..HE IS ONLY GOIN 2 GET BETTA FOLKS...DATS SCARY..
WE GOT JAQUEZ, BAM, &JOVIC (BABY JOKER) THAT IS Da 3 FUTURE piecess U BUILD AROUND..
Like the fact that triple j drives to the bucket with insane footwork.
He plays so naturally! Hard to believe it is his first year in the league
Put a rock in immense heat and they turn into gems. Heat Culture
ROOKIE OF THE YEAR!!! This kid is a future superstar
I love his Floater game. Idk why more players don't use it.
Fun player to watch. I wish I was 15 and playing ball again! 😊
We got that Jimmy Software update with this kid
JJJ a fearless rookie, that's why i'm a fan.💪🤘
Miami going into playoffs this season with two Jimmy Butlers but Jamie is like a 22 year old version of 2018 Jimmy mixed in with a little Kobe Bryant
The heir to Butler for miami
I love the way this guy moves, so dynamic and natural. Top that with a looks of a Mexican bad boy and what's not to like?!
He's so aggressive. Literally the perfect fit.
love jaime game and he plays a
like a vet and being mentored by jimmy
Heat is Lucky, those so called experts, scouts saw him at 18th....he..he...he.....this kid is a super star, IQ, foot works, ability are all there and he is only going to be better!
The experts said he is to be UNDRAFTED and they got all shock when miami pick him at 18 pick, because he is too old for a rookie.
And dont forget the experts said they wont make it to playoff after losing 2 key players
Graded the Pick I think C 🤣
Bruh.. He's sharp..
JAIME JAQUEZ !!!!!! 🦿🦾 ESTA PERRON !!!!
Dude's a rookie but plays like a seasoned vet.
Miami's known for developing players but this dude seems so skilled already. The quintessential heat player. Glad he's on our team.
J³ is killing it!! 🔥
What an efficient player
Another chapter in the Juan Wick origin story 🔥
Man he’s smooth with it !
crazy footwork, just so GOOD
Love his style
Hope he wins 6th man of the year soon
Bro is an absolute bully in the paint lol
slippery and lethal 🥶🥶🥶🥶 sheesh
The kid got the mamba mentality
First I’ve seen do that drop step spin move so fluidly in a long time, probably since Kobe
It’s a lost art
When i was saw his video last year i knew he was special talent
Out of all the NBA stars, he does play like Jimmy who gets the ball and finishes.
I remember him at UCLA i was watching him on Ig and I’m so proud of him
He will the new Manu of NBA
This dude is a straight up baller
So polished beautiful all around game biggest steal since Luka
De México para el mundo
UCLA!!! Amazing Footwork. The only thing that could derail Jaime from becoming an All Star are the ladies of Miami.
Jaquez!!!!!🇲🇽🇺🇲
Team is so deep they can't even get Jamal Cain on the goddamn court that's crazy talk. Kid would be a breakout prodigy phenom for a lot of teams but they keep getting new ones like Jaime.
Juan Wick! 💪😂
i gotta apologise to you jaime jaquez, i wasn't familiar with your name. I am now tho, what a player!
