Kristaps Porzingis - Defensive Dynamo
Спорт
Kristaps Porzingis is a sensation. He’s already a really good rim protector. The phenomenal footwork he displays, especially on the perimeter, allows Kris to keep the ball handlers in front of him. His instincts are sharp, his reads are instant, and his hands have proven excellent; There are times the ball seems to just pop out from great players mid-stride, but upon closer examination, it’s all this kid. He’s currently sixth in the league with 1.9 blocks per game, while sitting fourth in terms of total blocks (just above guys like Anthony Davis, Karl-Anthony Towns, and Rudy Gobert).
It takes a special kind of toughness to be in New York on draft night, get booed, then have your name chanted in The World’s Most Famous Arena only a few months later. That toughness carries over to the court, and NBA players have learned (some more quickly than others) that Kris gets stops. Yes, he stands at 7’3’’, so you’d expect him to be swatting shots, but it is not easy for a young big man to learn the intricacies and responsibilities of anchoring an NBA defense, especially not one who is coming from overseas. Kris, however, is a quick study. His timing and patience are a work in progress (as evidenced by being in the top 20 for total number of fouls this season), but he’s still only 20 years old.
If you didn’t already know, this kid is for real. He’s got the work ethic, an explosive offensive skill set, and of course, dynamic defensive prowess. He’s going to be a FORCE in the league for years to come.
Be prepared to hear “Blocked by Porzingis” a lot.

The most incredible thing about this video is that damn near every block he gets the Knicks gained a possession, none of that spiking the ball to the third row crap. He can also stay with point guards because he has incredible length and absurd lateral quickness for someone who is 7'3.

Great job evin. His agility is what mostly leads to him getting a lot of blocks.(of course being 7'3 helps as well). He has a high iq on the defensive end
if he played like this on the mavs wed be title contenders
I think he can be a really special player.
amazing how agile this guy is at 7 feet

He's smart, knows how to read his opponent's move and utilizes his body really well. If I were his teammate I couldn't ask for more.
I have a tear in my eye watching this.
That jump timing is sick. Great defensive IQ.
one of the best paint defenders already. you will shoot 9% less at the rim and 7% worse in the paint when gaurded by him. great rim protector still needs to improve perimeter defence

Unbelievable athleticism for a 7’3 man Porziņģis is a beast the unicorn making himself known
really enjoy the videos man, thanks for compiling these!
hes not just long he was good anticipation and he gets off the ground fast. insane
Dude, Mavs need THIS Porzingis!
man can this guy play defense or what! he's gonna become one of the best players in the NBA no doubt in my mind.
His lateral movement and agility are unseen For a guy his size. That first block on Parker..how many times have you seen Parker lose guys with that spin move? This 20 yr old kid was all over it. Parker didn't have a chance. Wow.
If he gets Bionic knees and this KP returns, MVP caliber player
Definitely future all defensive team
Most people at 7 ft 3 are very slow or don't have great footwork but he moves like a damn guard out there

those hassle plays, diving for the ball make me even respect this kid more..
I enjoyed this vid. I love this guy KP
3:48 amazing recovery from a 7'3 guy. There's not many players his size who can stumble like that without falling while still staying with the play & blocking the shot. KP is a star in the making, KNICKSTAPE!
absolutely right. indeed very good footwork, coordination and bball iq for when how to move. he is able to block anyone. that guy is starting to be scary:D
im impressed.
This guy is amazing! OMG!
I know this is a weird comparison but he reminds me a lot of KG on defense. Tall and skinny with quick feet to stay in front of point guards and not afraid to dive for loose balls AND he can run the court with the small guys.

I absolutely love these videos. The time and effort that you put into these is incredibly evident, starting from the summary to the examples that you put in the footage. Thank you so much! Quick question, do you plan on updating any of the videos that you have made up to now? I am in love with your defensive highlights especially. Especially, watching guys like Kawhi Leonard, Marcus Smart, and Avery Bradley play defense.

the great thing about his blocks are that he keeps the ball in play to his teammates. bill russell the goat post defender did this too
Porzingis is a very good on ball defender..he can steal and block, and his presence is intimidating
don't get me wrong I love all of his blocks but how about the fact that he was at least able to keep up with the faster guards and block them like Walker Westbrook Paul lillard

Great video. A lot of the videos on Porzingis just focuses on his offense. His real impact on the game is his ability to defend the rim and rebound. His rebounding was inconsistent last year, but the Knicks were at their best (around .500) when he was grabbing around 11.5 RPG for a stretch. If free agents are smart, they'll want to come to the Knicks, not because of Carmelo, Rose, or the market size. They should want to play with the 20 yr old Porzingis, who could be an Anthony Davis caliber player in a few years. Dynasties are built around defensive anchors. If he can stay healthy, he should become of the most the versatile and 'impactful' players in the NBA. He could score from anywhere on the court. He defend from anywhere on the court. He protects the rim. He could control the defensive glass, and also attack the offensive glass. He could make smart passes (critical in the triangle) and make good offensive decisions (although he is prone to chuck too many 3s). And his physical tools (height/length) isn't something that you can teach. If the Knicks are able to turn the franchise around, it would likely be due to him. His scoring production may be hindered playing with Anthony, Rose, and whatever big name free agent they attract this/next off-season, but he'll still have the ability to dominate on the offensive when needed. He needs to get stronger (not necessarily heavier) to be more effective on the block and for durability purposes, work on fouling less, and get more consistent on the glass (and his jumper).
Yup yup.Been likin him since draft.Not bullshitin.7'3",a really good shooter in the post and perimeter,not afraid to get down low,not too skinny,toughness,maturity,poise,nimble on his feet,high defense IQ and a really good shot blocker.His greatest asset is by far is shooting ability and that type of height.Even though KAT might be better than KP when its all said and done,Kristaps will be something special.
you should look into doing a kentavious caldwell pope defense video. Very underrated perimeter defender, matches up with the opponents best offensive player on a nightly basis
This kid is special. If the Jazz can have a front court that boasts Him and Gobert, they can go very deep into the playoffs. No doubt about it!
Hopefully one day he'll be making clutch blocks in the Finals.
Cant wait for lonzo ball to be on here 😎
hey just a question im wondering about, is it considered cheap or bad to dive on the floor to get the ball? imo what ever works and as long as u get it its fine what do others think?

Please please pleaaase make a video about Enes Kanter finishing on the inside. He's a great scorer off the bench and basically Westbrook's security blanket. Awesome offensive rebounder as well.
The Knicks biggest positive next season isn't all the additions to the team. It's KP's pregression from a foreign 20 yr old to a bigger , stronger seasoned second year player who did way more than hold is own in season 1. He is gonna be 1.a on the next impact scale next season.

Sasuke Uchiha Honestly that's one of those calls that can go either way and it personally depends on the refs. But they've also been told to ease up on calling that on defensive players in the recent years because of people like Dwade, Stoudemire, Greg Monroe, Carmelo Anthony and James harden using that pump fake heavily to draw fouls, especially in the past
