Cuttino is absolutely right about defending the post. I have a new buddy I play one-on-one with. I'm a good outside shooter, but he likes to post up. We're about the same height. The first couple games I destroy him by stroking 3s. The last couple he starts posting me up on every possession, and with no shot clock, can just keep leaning on me and wearing my legs down. Once that happens, my outside shots stop falling, and I don't have the energy to drive to the bucket.

I don't know coach Steph Curry posting up does not sound like a smart idea. This does seem like a better idea for thick guards like Harden Lowry and Westbrook.

Most of them are comfortable getting triple doubles and going home after the first playoff round, that's not a winner mindset.

Cutino is correct. Guarding someone who posts up a lot is exhausting. It really takes out your legs. This is just smart basketball. If you have a big man (the 5) that can shoot 3s like Brook Lopez, you can pull away bigs from the paint and have your point guard post up and shoot.

while thats true in a way, posting up doesnt need to generate alot of 3s. theres shooters, and cutters. hitting ur cutters with a quick pick and pop can easily lead to defensive errors. lets say harden is on left block. give russ offball screen to baseline on the right wing and i forgot the rockets roster but a stretch big off-ball screen into a pop 3. harden has 2 options along with creating for himself. russ can pop back out other side if the cut is ineffective and the guy on top can cut right side. russ can make his open shots so thats a simple play thats rlly effective. if everyone stands while harden posts, well then thats the problem right there.

​@@f0rtyy815 I see what you are saying but trust me I know this team. Cutting in the lane is not a strong suit of the personnel by offensive design. The only shooter who can get a look off quick from a screen with relative efficiency is Eric Gordon. Tucker is limited to corner which is not ideal for posting up. Green is inefficient and Danuel House must be WIDE OPEN to hit a 3. Russ has issues even on wide open shots. It's probably relatively good points per possession but I just don't think it is as effective as pick and roll with Capela.

I’m glad you brought this up. Litterally all of James Harden’s offensive skills translate into post offense: Strength, footwork, ability to draw contact, change of direction speed, ability shoot while moving in different directions, passing, etc. He could be an even more deadly offensive weapon if he committed to working on his footwork in the post.

Come on, Coach, you're above these kinds of titles.

meanwhile Kobe routinely did this with a mix of 3's...

Wade was been posting up players and he's been more efficient in his prime than Harden. If Harden adds a legitimate post game, the Rockets would be a whole lot more dangerous.

Jordan and Kobe strongly disagree

The reason why Harden is so hard to guard when he isos at the three point is because he has the Step back three in his bag. Defenders have to play for both the drive and the step back three. For most guys you dont have to press up as much because its a step back three, most maybe make like 30%, but Harden can legitimately make close 40% of those if not closed out on. If he posts up inside, the defender (usually the best team defender) doesn't have to worry as much about the step back as much since he knows Harden is more so trying to get inside to score or draw FTs. A step back 2 at 40% is something defense can live with from Harden. T That's why Harden is always starting from the 3 pt line. Its just straight up more efficient, and you know how much the Rockets love those.

Half a century ago, people dreamt of flying cars and living on Mars...but little did they know that the real REVOLUTION of man is for Guards to post up and Centres to shoot 3s.....( I am a post up guard all my life, people think I am crazy.....until they see me skyhook it in....)

People keep saying post game is dead, it's just that no one tries to think about using them in the modern game. I always believe that a good post player getting a double team and a pass to outside is deadly. Not too different from slashing and pass to three points in efficiency if done well.

Hi, I work for the Rockets front office and brought this video to the attention of the GMs, we will try this in the first 5 games of the upcoming season.

Lol you're a natural for Ads coach 🤣🤣

Shaun Livingston is the king of the midrange post-up, he was insanely efficient, and I’m sure Harden can emulate that with his handles and step back

Coach Nick with the shot boiiiiii

Lmaoo, didnt see that ad coming

Jordan, Kobe and Dwyane wade all feasted with elite post games. Lebron added a post game in Miami and jumped to a top 3 player all time. History shows James harden should do this like yesterday

This is basically essential for Harden to use, because the shots will be easier for him to make at times when he is already tired. If he misses 2 or 3 three pointers in a row, he can just go down low and get easy buckets or easy 3s for his teammates. I think if he were to work on his post game just a little bit, then the perception of Harden disappearing in the playoffs would quickly change.

7:19 Booker using the signature Kobe fadeaway from a triple team, with 15 secs on the clock, having 3 teammates wide open...that is the true definition of mamba mentality

Yes he should! Ive been thinking this! He already has a good step back off of his elbow, like the one he did on iggy in 2015. He needs to use his midrange more, and if he develops a fadeaway than that would be even better. He also needs to speed up the amount of dribbles he makes(which means fewer) and at very least when hes at the top of the key move alittle bit more so the defense doesnt think your gonna dribble in one spot and lull defenders to sleep. That's what got im trapped in the GS series.

Valid point man.

That background music on ad, just like I'b better hurry up to buy them :D

Mobley is such a great bball mind. I love the talks with him.

Oh my...really cool video!

Jordan and Kobe played in the post and won titles this way. If Harden plays more in the post, then it's a certainty the Rockets will win it all. Jordan, Kobe and Harden are all guards - normally, posting is done through your bigs, Shaq, Duncan, Olajuwon (I may be missing some players/Hall Of Famers here, but you get the idea). I came up with this saying based on my observations of the past: "point guard driven teams always lose in the playoffs, you must go through your bigs who can play in the post. That's why it's called the *post-season*." I always dismissed guards because of their height and how the big man troubles the paint, but during the Warriors dynasty, we saw things a little different. Their runs were predicated on ball movement, spacing, pacing and 3-pointers. If post play is still a big deal, I would like to know the numbers behind post plays in playoffs. Is it volume, efficiency, guarding the post, or drawing fouls for free throws using the post. More importantly, from what position, the guards or the bigs. I would love to see you break down the importance of post play in the playoffs, Nick.

Very interesting take. I think one place we definitely see this theory utilized is in Golden State as D'lo has the size passing and shot creating to destroy smaller guards in the post. Not too mention I think Kerr is actually creative enough to try it.

Good job Coach

It’s funny they are talking about guards posting up. Klay Thompson started doing this during last years playoffs.

This might actually work. The only problem is whether or not D Antoni will allow it because this can absolutely help their offense and not be that predictable

I know Amare Stoudemire is a big but he was EXTREMELY succesful in the mid-post, elbow area so why wouldnt he allow harden?

This would be great, many times in crunch time, Harden’s legs simply doesn’t have the power to hit stepbacks. So now he can take the majority of them in the 4th. Sounds great

An interesting and bold idea. I think come playoffs it could help when the game slows down and scoring becomes harder. Harden could perhaps use this as a way of getting a few simple buckets or more wide-open shots for teammates. But I still want to see how efficient Harden could be from the post. Not entirely sold.

he would need to be 52.5% from the midrange to match 35% from the 3pt line. he would need to be 57.5% from the midrange to match 38% from the 3pt line.

Ben Simmons and Westbrook could probably post up like this and be successful. But I couldn't see shooters like curry and Harden post up

Mr.E Harden is bigger and stronger than most guards he’s built for it but he has to add it to his game

Jordan Durant Kobe they all were elite in the post the fadeaway over either shoulder. Durant is especially good. It also gets teammates open shots and cuts for layups when defense turns their head or doubles. He has all the floaters and shots with diff footwork so he would be fun to watch in the mid range post. Pick and roll spread is great but being predictable makes it tough in playoffs. If I was that great I would want the ball all the time and go 1v1 and show off skills but you have to let others touch it more it makes them better on both ends. And really if they are gonna win title harden and Westbrook will both have to care about defense and give multiple efforts on defense and not have bad body language towards teammates when they or someone gets beat instead they need to just cover for them and take someone scoring as everyone’s fault. And they can’t focus on the refs or get into 1v1 battles that take focus off the game plan.

its a good idea, but we all know he will iso 23 seconds and chuck up 3 pointers before the shot clock expire. Maybe an experiment with the post up can add more points of attack for harden

This video shows exactly how they will utilize Westbrook, not Harden. I didn't look at the numbers but, 4 shooters, one Westbrook should be fun to watch

I'm so happy seeing one of my favorite shooters, Cuttino Mobley again. Thank you, Coach Nick.

I can’t believe we are at a point where this even needs to be said
