GP2 a defensive MONSTER… not just that, the guy got BOUNCE for only being 6’3. Warriors need to give him a longer contract so he can continue to grow under Steve Kerr. He’s 29, but he’s healthy and got a good future as a Warrior ahead of him if he continues to play like this.

Defenders either don't block him out, or can't block him out. But GP2 is a cheat code two way player.

Not hard to believe, let's remember his Father was a SAVAGE on defense, and y'all don't think Gary Sr. didn't teach his son lock down defense in privacy.

No doubt his dad was giving advice whether he wanted it or not.

It really speaks to the nurturing culture of the Warriors. They take these players that no one wants and turns them into beasts on the court.

Facts

Another example of how an "average" player gets polished to shine in there greatness with the Warriors. I luv it when GPII hits the floor - his energy brings the whole crowd up + you know he's gonna posterize someone!! Praying he continues to grow with the Warriors and they get this man a long contract with more 💰 bc he deserves it 🤟

This guy is one of my favorite players. He is 100% hustle and truly makes the difference on the GS squad of why they are at the top of the league right now. Every team has superstars. Steff is having an mvp season but GP2 helps to make all of the stars lives easier and they don’t have to work as hard. He does most of the grunt work. Defending the opposing teams best players from 1-3. Taking charges, diving for loose balls. The guy does everything high level except for his jump shooting. He runs the point well, can pass, doesn’t turn the ball over alot, can finish well, plays above the rim, can rebound better than 90% of the guards out there, one of the best defenders in the league. He just is not a knock down shooter but has gotten better from the three point line, which makes him super dangerous. He is an awesome fit for GS. If they stay healthy, only Phoenix can give them a run in the playoffs

Starting to love GP2 for the Dubs he is making his own Name in the NBA God bless for him.

And he is playing even better. On 12/23, 2 days after this video, in addition to his stellar defense, GP2 had 22 points on 9-16 FG shooting including 4-7 3P! He made a much-needed 3P dagger late in the 4th.

credit also to GSW coaching team, they saw something on gary that other team didn't..

That staff has a back for that.

I love watching GPII play because he hustles. He plays 110% every time! That Warriors coaching staff has a way of unlocking a player's potential.

GP2 has been amazing since this season started. He is a beast both defensively and offensively. I love the dude, and I wish him a prosperous career onwards.

The dubs know how to utilize players. There is always the right tool for the right job.

The Curry-GP2 pairing Kerr just pulled out versus MEM is how you make a "small" backcourt lineup work - with defense.

Gary Payton is just a cool dude I'm glad he's on the dubs

the Warriors is so much fun to watch

*GARY PAYTON II* is *AMBIDEXTROUS* because while he shoots with his lelf hand and can lay up either, he writes with his right hand.

One of the most exciting players that you sit on the edge of your seat waiting for his next steal and breakaway dunk.

GPII - one of my favorite players since he popped into the Bright Lights. The confidence, attention to detail and high motor always gets my attention. The Toronto game looked like he's settling into his Full Package version hitting those 3s. Not a 2-way player...GPII is 3-way 🙀💙(As a petite person I always support fellow "petites" who use the "disadvantage" to motivate to the highest self. 💙💫💛

The world needs more GP2 highlights - thank you, sir!

Klay is so close to coming back to I can’t wait for this team back and healthy

GP2 just posted his season high of 22 points vs MEM. And he's hitting timely 3's as well.

Rapidly become one of my favourite players in the league. Something spectacular always happens when Kerr puts him the game. There have been multiple times where there have been 5-7 seconds left in a quarter and Kerr puts him in and he gets the stop. He also has really great chemistry with Draymond and Iggy.

Warriors really have a magic touch they can make anybody a good player

A world-class defender: smart, athletic, and unstopped motor. GP2 also provide two lethal offensive options to the ball handler. He is one of the key reasons that Warriors has the best defense and best record in the league this season.

First team. He deserves first team. GS is the best defensive team in the league and he plays a large part of their success along with Draymond and Iguadola

The Golden Glove! Keeping em punch drunk when he's on ya and if he gets up on ya oh you gonna get them hands! Pow!!!💥

In his podcast right after winning the championship, Draymond talks about him and Steph calling the GM after his 10 day expired. They insisted that they wanted him to be on the team, and the GM followed their recommendation. YOUNG GLOVE

One of my favorite players I model my game after him. Pest defense and doing whatever I can to help my team win🤙🏾

I literally just thought you dropping a video as I was looking for content and here you are lol crazy how that works.

Great video as always!

He's also a dunking highlight reel. Dubs have never had that. Gets everyone hyped!

Gray Payton ll is the number glad u come to the warriors 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

Keep up the GOOD work GSW.....!!! I'm ur #1 avid fan👍👍👍

GP2 is a beast in the restricted area on offensive rebounds. Smallest guy getting amongst the trees. Love his game!

I love everything that has been described about him here. He is a beast, but one of the things that I love the most about him is his humility, sportsmanship or camaraderie. If you watch him closely, if any fan, teammate or anyone on the opposite team doesn't like him, it is their problem, because he is one of the most kind people I have seen in the NBA.

I just love to see the "little" guy dunking.

I love him.. 💙

Can GP2 be the first player signed to the last roster spot be selected to an all defensive team?

He’s back baby let’s gooo🏀🔥

Warriors got a steal🤩👏👏👏🎊🎉

Def need that second beat back on the new videos

The WARRIORS Team is a great star-maker. Join Warriors and you'll be a basketball star. Take advantage of the other team's occupation of Steph Curry and you can make some good play with your name on it. Steve Kerr is making good use of his players, their strengths and powers in point. All the five players against the Warriors in the court are worried about Steph. Their attention is out and away from the other Warriors. It is time to shine with Curry leading the way. Just like what the other coach has said, "take Curry out of the play and nothing of that sort happens".

I love warriors because they always help youngster to develop thier skills .

the warriors are way ahead of the league, their system will be the Standard in winning championship, their nurturing and ego less culture brings out the best of every player

i love GP2 and the warriors

HE"S BACK !

It's like you're allowed to move without the ball. Crazy.

with right team right system right team....

Underrated defender

Lets hope his career would be healthy.. Away from injuries

There is something about those Warriors. Insert some other team's castoff and the Warrior Machine puts out an incredible man and turns him into an amazing player - this team cultivates the exceptional quality of each player and harnesses it into the team concept. This team expects and demands high ability and composure and gets each guy to make the other team pay. This guy is fast and deadly - he can go end to end from defense to offense and makes a team pay for its mistakes. You cannot have enough players with his heart and ability. I respect him so much I'll never abbreviate him - he is GARY PAYTON II. Honor his with no less. CP3 is now washed up and deserves being some slang name. Gary Payton II deserves nothing less than spending the time to say his whole name. Give the MAN his RESPECT!

Well GP2 shows us what 90s basketball looks like 💪

GP2 I'm your #1 Fan's now💪💪💪

he's the only PG in the NBA that plays the dunker spot on O. when wiseman comes back it would be hard putting GP and him on the court together

Mr. Steve Kerr advisedly hi is The Mastermind Of Golden State Warriors hi is The one telling The Player how The Player’s has to do in Offense and Defense

Reminds me so much of Ron Lee, Phoenix Suns 1970s. Exciting defender, lefty, clutch. Check him out.

He never gives up on defense.. he exerts effort in every possible way. Not like somebody who just stays on his post even there is someone who will take a shot in his face.

that guy was amazed defense!

This dude levitates

Gp2 is outstanding hands down.bottom line God bless him.

👏👏👏👏 from phillipines GP2

😎😎Total Package. Who better makes the very best out of everything he's got? (Payton 2) Couldn't ask for a better player or a better human being. He makes me appreciate his serious-faced dad more in contrast. Gary must be the proudest dad around from Oaktown.🙂🙂❤❤ I also live in the area where his Pops grew up you might guess. I remember Seattle where I spent some time back in the day. I was never one wanting to miss the Shawn Kemp (Mr. Jet Boots!) and the Gary Payton Show. I liked to call Payton Sr. Ice Man 2. Glad to see Gary 2 "got get it." Didn't his father say something about a "mailman" or something? Gary Payton Sr. must be from Oakland "back in the day" and never left. Hahaha🏀🏀

GSW is the best training ground for those who wants to be a super star in NBA..

Essentially, GP2 is a cheat code for defense.Just having GP2 and Draymond in the same roster is just unfair and suffocating. Not only that but they can be both terrifying defensively (GP2, Dray) and offensively (literally the whole bench).

I would love you to see GP2 in the next all star slam dunk contest next year.

Man I m pissed they didn't keep him. He was the key on defense Idk why they didn't try everything to keep him in they ll regret it for sure.

Yes he will make it. If it's not broke you don't need to it

PLEASE extend this dude

This man deserve to be in dunk contest this coming allstar event..

Yes, he has been very impressive.

Naw he’s definitely a monster , his strength is very underrated you think your gonna overpower him because he’s small naww and he has a 6’8 wingspan

GP2 is a giant inside the court! Don’t be fouled by his height !!!

very cool...the DUBS has the SPLASH BROTHERS and the HOUNDOGS (Draymond and GP2)

Fact that this video was made MONTHS AGO speaks volumes to y Warriors are the champs…. Offense is an ILLUSION….. people only watching offense don’t realize TOP 5 defense is y they r CHAMPS

Barbosa was better, he's more impactful. His defense is huge for gs

Even his father doubts and suspects the mailman. After all who can blame his father for having doubt after seeing his son's quick reflex and leaping ability.

if the warriors happened not to sign this guy for a multi contract this dude will be the pain for their asses if other team/s signed him

if he will further develope his shooting. he will be the best modern day 2 way player

Like father like son 🔥

GP 2 is like his daddy.... great defender. And this guy is SOUTHPAW always creates problem for ORTHODOX . Most southpaw are special 👌👌👍🏀

Crazy how you can find a video like this on every single player on the w's crazy how in three years they moved on from KD and became contenders again

Le Frog= Gary Payton II. Opposing teams should be well advised to request a scan of GP II's legs, and sue GSW for fielding a player with springs on his legs instead of tendons

Bealitza dont know if im freakin right but damn is may not be a good rm def. But he is a good passer and he always have a good vision

His father, the OG Gary Payton, was a defensive monster so it's only right that Gary Payton's son help the best team in the NBA win another title

What do you expect, he learned from arguably the greatest defensive PG.

Gp2 is a monster
