shooting coach who worked with Evan Mobley since he came into the league

you can clearly see that's where Shai got that off arm chicken wing he's throwing everytime he tries to get separation on his jumper from. He's teaching Steph the same thing. He's working on all the right stuff. Shooting, getting to his spots and creating separation for a pull up jumper as well as post ups. Kid's gon take another leap next season, I'm sure.
I wish he was a little bigger now that we know we’re taking Harper. I hope he won’t be a defensive liability at SF. He’s the same size as DeMar, and I don’t remember if he was a poor defender because of his size limitations or he just had poor instincts, period.
Cool, thanks. That's great to hear if he's also worked with players like Shai. Steph seems to be working with some really good coaches.
I wonder if the Spurs will have potential draftees go up against Stephon one on one to see how they fare in pre-draft workouts?
I am hoping all this work repe ion will help with his consistency.. Like you said everything looks good, but sometimes in games, the ball/shot was just off when it left his hand on some of those misses. And I don't know what happened on some of those mid-range air balls. Form looks pretty good to me. Maybe just more repe ion will help shore all that up and get him more consistent in games. I believe he will get there and do it. His hard work will pay off.
Alright, cool. Sounds like he's working with the right people. Great to hear.
Yeah, this stuff has got me quite excited seeing and hearing about the credentials of the guys he's working with. He's working hard (not that I expected otherwise) and I think he's flat out going for greatness. Not just to be good/improve his game, but to be great.
I think DeMar just had no defensive instincts at all. Not sure if I am remembering right, but I also vaguely remember TiMVP saying his lateral quickness wasn't very good.
Hardworking really
At ude counts
Yup this kid is not only shooting to improve but shooting for greatness. We’re going to get ourselves a future all-NBA and maybe possibly MVP. Him taking a leap at shooting would make that 3-guard offense work with Dylan. It’s still a long off-season ahead and a lot of improvements still going to happen. Man, I can’t wait.
There is a chance that Castle + Harper would be better than Tony + Manu.
At least their ceiling is already higher than Tony + Manu already...
Dude you know that’s blasphemy especially I’m a huge Manu fan. But I would root for that. The thing about the Big 3 though was their selflessness, team-first approach. I know Timmy gets a big credit for letting himself get coached. But Manu took a big gamble on his career accepting that 6th man role, we all know. Manu’s eurostep, dribbling behind, switching, you know he’s going to his left but you still can’t stop it. Those side-line passes that seemed to bend, his 1000% motor every single time he’s out there as if there’s no tomorrow, sacrificing his body to take charges, it would be tough to beat. TP is a blur going down, spin moves against trees, led fg% despite being a small guard, fearless. His floater equally reinvented the game (albeit CP3 also helped). I only wish we get the same perfect storm because the stars aligned with Timmy, Manu, TP and not to mention Pop sheltered them with that no-nonsense, no drama culture.
So, all we needed to do was have him face away from the rim? He railed all of those spin around corner 3s. I like that on the 3rd shot of each drill, he makes him wait until he calls out ‘shot’, disrupting his rhythm. There was also another drill in one of these instas where he had him hop off one foot, land on two, and shoot a 3 pointer. Great drill for balance.
Haha, I was just watching a batch of Castle highlights for the season today. Forgot how good he is. We are in for an amazing future with him, Harper & Wemby!
Is there a link to that video of that other drill? I'm not on Instagram (not big on any social media), so I can't view it.
I’m not either. I believe there are two more stories in a post by ace3g. Scroll back a bit in this thread.
I like that too. Great practice for letting a defender fly by while still being ready to pull the trigger.
it definitely looks like he has put on a bit more muscle.
dont worry he will likely play as a back up pg to fox.
FTs are key. IF he's playing SF and his 3 is still in progress, he'll have opportunities playing closer to the basket, in theory.
Imagine if Castle was 6'8
Pump the brakes lmao hahahahahahahahaha
While drilling that sideline 3 shot, fit him with a shock collar that goes off if his heel touches the sideline.
That’s much more a Champagnie thing than a Castle thing.
ceiling higher than Tony+Manu, hold your horse a bit
Ginobili was a Roman god gave his right cajones to the Spurs. And should be retired up there tbh. Tough to beat that.ceiling higher than Tony+Manu, hold your horse a bit
