    Had anybody actually heard of this “guard whisperer” guy before Steph?
    KD, SGA, Evan Mobley, Klay thompson and plenty others attended his academy from the videos on his YT channel...Currenly Castle and VJ Edgecombe Yves Missi

    Hoping Castle's 3-point shot takes a considerable leap this offseason. That's the only thing holding him back from being an All-Star caliber player. Not expecting 40% obv, but even slightly below league average at 34-35% would be great.
    At 40%, he’s on track for All NBA.

    How long has Steph been working with TGW anyway? Is it just this offseason that he started, or has he been working with him since last season?

    Carter Bryant also works with him. He was there with him at the draft.

    Castle is such a worker. He's not messing around this offseason. Studying Baron Davis is a great idea for him.
    I love how Castle's dribbling as he's listening to TGW and looking at video. That's a baller.

    Unlike Vassell who is posing in Paris like he's a supermodel.Ugh....

    Vassell been working out in France at Wemby's old club Nanterre. I think he was in there with Wemby too around the time of the draft. Worked out in Spain at the players association facility as well. Just cause he's not being filmed while doing it, doesn't mean he ain't working. Same with Keldon, he been working out at the Spurs facility.

    I in no way represent SpursTalk, just me. Of course Vassell is working out. Professional basketball players tend to that.
    He's also such a fashionista poser and tunnel-vision shooter which happens to irritate the out of me.

    Guard Whisperer talking about his workouts with Steph at 23:00. They are working on his 3-point shot and scoring in the paint.

    For those that might not be able to watch the video or don't have time to watch it. Here's most of what he said about Steph. So they asked Olin (the guy said he's asking for a friend, not necessarily for himself, he's just curious), how good can Steph Castle be, can he be a franchise level superstar level player and Olin said: "Steph Castle can be the next one soon. When I mean soon like now, like man, the kid is phenomenal and he's a lot bigger than people know until they get up on him. He's legit 6'6", 6'7" 220 pounds. He's like, he's big, you know, and he's an uber athlete. He can shoot a lot better than people think, but we definitely going to lock in on that. And people didn't realize in high school, I had him since his junior year in high school, he's a point guard. So, when he went to UConn he also knows how to play the game of basketball and know all the playoff stars (not sure if I got this bit right. I don't know what he means by playoff stars, or if he meant stats). But man, you just think about him and Wemby, I mean, you got a dynamic 7'4" guy and then you got a point guard as dynamic as him. Honestly think he can be in that conversation with Shay and Cade Cunningham really big guards that you really can't do anything with you at their mercy."

    Interesting that he thinks that highly of Steph.

    I also asked someone here how long Steph's been working with him and it seems going by his answer, Steph has been going to him for a while now, so that is something new I learned.

    Also interesting that the guy doing the interview, not sure what affiliation he has with the Bucks, but I wonder if he's asking that question for someone inside the Milwaukee Bucks organization.

    Castle is a 25ppg scorer next season. I can see it. He’s trying to be our Kobe.

    i'd be shocked if his numbers don't decrease in the second season.. assuming we don't have bad injuries, of course.

    On another team, probably, but he’s 3rd hog at the trough behind two other 25 point scorers, and we ain’t the Warriors.

    Interviewer is Marques Johnson, who was a pretty nice player for the Bucks in the late 70s through mid 80s.

    That form looks pretty good. High release, nice follow through. The mechanics are broken down but it’s still a smooth shot.

    For next year I’m looking to have castle as more of an offensive creator when he has the ball, and cuts and weaves when he doesn’t.

    Hope he can also turn it on on defence and focus on team d as well.

    Stephon Castle is still in the “thinking about the shot” stage of development and not in the “automatic” stage that Steph Curry is in. After Castle puts in several hundred thousand practice shots in the gym, he might get to Curry’s level. He’s got a chance for sure.

    1) half of me thinks this horse whisperer might be a fraud, paying young stars to record these videos to make himself a millionaire. the other half thinks he might be legit
    2) who is that fat little short whitey with the sweaty ass and why is he out there?
    3) like the fact they don't only show makes
    4) this video is nothing compared to the 15 second Sochan IG vids
    5) still think this horse whisperer might be all hype, like the Kobe of coaches just talking top , with semi-decent drills who knows how to intimidate young players

    Wemby was never in Nepal. He was in the Shaolin monastery in China.
