[erniedogg3969]

[89tinkerbutt]

Do you believe in high top or low top shoes?

[DoJoStan]

@89tinkerbutt their more of a metal thing, I prefer low top shoes even though many may say "ankle support isn't there" then again many players sprain their ankles even in high top shoes. I prefer low tops because it gives you a more free range of motion while high tops restrict it.

Eg. Derrick Rose 2.0 vs. 2011 Hyperfuses

[89tinkerbutt]

@DoJoStan Are the kobe systems considered high tops or low tops?

[DoJoStan]

@89tinkerbutt I think your referring to the "Kobe 7", those would be considered low tops. Though many may argue that the Attack Strong/Attack Fast soles which include the ankle brace make it a high top. The good side of those are they are extremly comfortable but I've read from a few reviews that they often cause blister because of the arch the sole causes on your foot. And then again their $200.

[Niiccccoo]

I wish I was good at basketball like this guys... Hahah fuck.

[19999228]

2:07 Ganon Baker

[Ultimat3Mogakan]

[StrongerTeamDotCom]

[ghostnotebeats]

bro i grew up with Dwill and i can say that he is the most loyal to the game and he respect it . but why not do it he just had surgery on his hand and hadn't played in a while. i think its a good move for him to get back into shape and smash on this niggas

[jarretchristman]

Man lol. Iman Shumpart is such a beast. He clearly paid off from this camp :-0

[GoGxButterFly]

Yo im hurt by D-Will. He had so many fans in the NBA. And then he signs with an international basketball team. Shows how much loyalty he has :(.

[StrongerTeamDotCom]

@GoGxButterFly He needs to to what is best for him and his family!

[GoGxButterFly]

@StrongerTeamDotCom Yeah but still im upset:(

[kb826062871]

@StrongerTeamDotCom what's the best? Elenin is coming in September...

[AdR1aN43]

@GoGxButterFly y i thought he was coming back when the lockout ends, is he not?

[GoGxButterFly]

@AdR1aN43 if he does then im happy

[cptmuska]

@GoGxButterFly the NBA has been quoted as being as real as WWE wrestling. good for him.

[GoGxButterFly]

@cptmuska okay how the fuck do you fake basketball?

[cptmuska]

@GoGxButterFly the refs are paid off in almost every game. the rosters are fixer, salaries and the way players are traded is crazy. GET WITH IT. DUDE

[AdR1aN43]

@cptmuska shut man. thats 100% bullshit

[cptmuska]

@AdR1aN43 it's not, more than 4 reffs have gone to jail for it in the last few years, 2 in the playoffs lol

[Arobbanks]

@GoGxButterFly as soon as the lockout ends his coming back its in his contract his not leaving the nba

[ImmortalHardOn]

@GoGxButterFly

he needs to play, why would he want to sit on his ass and do nothing when he is at the peak of his playing ability

[shaq430]

@GoGxButterFly he has an NBA out clause man cmon... onc the nba lockout is done he gets to come right back tp the NBA your acting like he is never going to come back to the NBA bro relax

[xGM0neyManx]

@GoGxButterFly he loyal to the game

[eyeofthetiger444]

@GoGxButterFly isnt that only while the lockout is in effect? im pretty sure when its over he can end his contract a few people in the league did the same thing

[lefthookD]

Man I have always wanted to go to a camp like this But im worried of getting embarassed and looking bad

[StrongerTeamDotCom]

@lefthookD Just 'worry' about things you can control!

[andrecgrh]

@lefthookD luck for you, cause you just have "fear" I don't go cause I live in Brazil and I don't have money to make a camp like this haha :s

[ajstyles2jr]

Man if I was able to go to keeps like these I would be a D1 prospect.tough luck now.

[StrongerTeamDotCom]

@ajstyles2jr You don't need camps like this to be a D-1 prospect - you need a D-1 game!

[TheAllDayBaller]

is number 14 nick johnson?

[StrongerTeamDotCom]

@TheAllDayBaller I believe so...

[MrNyballer32]

[oamc777]

[adelpho3]

Looks very intence,what i like most about this is that he's actually showing them moves that are effective in any level of basketball,pick ups or pros,that step back jump shot is very good to creat space for your shot and it's a move that don't require quickness just timing,holla back it's ya boy from The Bahamas

[StrongerTeamDotCom]

@adelpho3 Agreed, thanks!

[sharonsfinest]

[StrongerTeamDotCom]

@kevingao92 Yeah, it is invite only... you can't apply. Don't let it get you down, just keep working on your game!

[flofloballa34]

there are so many white kids at this camp...

[GotGameMixtapes]

Check out Moses Sullivan

[BallaBaby3score]

Is this an all guard camp. I want to get invited when in high school.

[StrongerTeamDotCom]

@BallaBaby3score Yes, these were the top PG's in the nation last year...

[finalcloud13]

Damn this camp is intense, they're all so good and it looks like they're teaching some real elite stuff.

[StrongerTeamDotCom]

@finalcloud13 Yes, both the players and the coaches at this event are elite!

[Phillikesthepill]

@StrongerTeamDotCom

I born in Germany, but there where i live now, it`s so hard to get in a good team and get good coaches.

I begrudge you, to have these "elite" oppertunities ( prop. wrote it wrong..) .

So, greetings from the near of Germany.(;

P.S. keep dem videos comin`. (;

[StrongerTeamDotCom]

@Phillikesthepill Will do, thanks!

[GATORBOI1221]

[Teamdowork1]

@TheAllDayBaller a good pg needs to literally be able to do everything

[prisonbreak22100]

Do you know a good program i could use to get better at ball handeling?

[StrongerTeamDotCom]

@prisonbreak22100 Check out Ganon Baker Basketball and Pure Sweat Basketball (Google them for their websites)...

[StrongerTeamDotCom]

@prisonbreak22100 Yep, Ganon does a great job!

[StrongerTeamDotCom]

@prisonbreak22100 Sorry, that is impossible to answer....

[prisonbreak22100]

@StrongerTeamDotCom Thanks man im thinking of ordering the one by Ganon Baker, he seems intense, but just what i need to help me be the best i can be.

[brandonpop]

Ganon Baker!

[StrongerTeamDotCom]

[Mikebball25]

[Mikebball25]

HI. I'm canadian i wonder i can i participe in any skills academy in new york or connecticut ? i like too watch these videos pretty much and i think i can do as great they doing it i just want to know where

[StrongerTeamDotCom]

@Mikebball25 Thanks for your message... these particular skills academies are invite only... you have to be invited by Nike Basketball.

[osimplis]

Thanks Coach!!!

[StrongerTeamDotCom]

@osimplis Any time!

[jonathanq17]

Hey Coach I have a college showcase in MA friday where the round robin games are from 7:30-10:00PM and a skills workout from 6:30-7:30. What time should my last meal be and I'm on vacation so how much should I do in the AM to prepare for it in the gym?

[StrongerTeamDotCom]

@jonathanq17 I would eat a pre-game meal around 4:30pm... and have a real quick snack right after the skills workout. I would worry about doing too much in the morning, enjoy your vacation :)

[Westegg21]

Great videos. I must have contributed at least 20 views to each of the nike skills camp videos that you uploaded haha

[StrongerTeamDotCom]

@Westegg21 Awesome, thanks! Please contribute 20+ views to every other video we have now :) Seriously, we appreciate you!

[iDance1707]

It would be great if there was a camp like 1 month long, lets say on summer vacation..it doesnt have to be with NBA star, but with great coaches that have been on these camps...1 month would make avarage player into a team leader

[StrongerTeamDotCom]

@iDance1707 I agree a longer camp would be 'better'... just impossible to schedule in this day and age.

[osimplis]

Great workouts!!

Im trying to help the players in my area...

[StrongerTeamDotCom]

@osimplis Great! Keep it up!

[drewgilchrist]

wow these kids have no defense LOL... i think thats whats wrong with HS basketball. it doesnt teach players the game like it used to.. its more like let me have one good guy and he goes scoring all the points. then when these kids get to college most are a huge bust due to the fact that they cant play organized ball

[StrongerTeamDotCom]

@drewgilchrist I agree with your point overall, but that is why they created these Skills Academies... this is THE best instruction in the country... the kids learn how to play the right way here... unfortunately these 'camps' are only a few days long...

[Tjtheplaya]

Thanks u for uploading this... lets me see some drills to work on and my off-season just started :D

[StrongerTeamDotCom]

@Tjtheplaya Great! Make sure you read Blog dot Stronger Team dot com too... next 3 weeks is all about the off-season!

[OksonnHD]

[jazzykid801]

eminem is my fav. but this song is his worst, but thats jst my opinion

[UKBasketball123]

[StrongerTeamDotCom]

@UKBasketball123 Awesome, keep working man!

[AdR1aN43]

@UKBasketball123 haha dre baldwin

[bloodhammer9045]

how do you get invited? do you just have to get good stats or what?

[StrongerTeamDotCom]

@bloodhammer9045 There is a lot more to being a good player than having good stats...

[TheHardWood19]

can someone from canada get invited to this?

[StrongerTeamDotCom]

@TheHardWood19 Yes...

[aba2185]

[StrongerTeamDotCom]

[ashalmighty12]

@dmoney61 Correct!

[Moneyisamust11]

im 5'9 nd im a freshman nd i wanted to start gettin in the weight room but i dnt want to stop my growth

do you think i can still get 6 feet atleast by my senior year even if i lift weights

[StrongerTeamDotCom]

@Moneyisamust11 Strength training does NOT stunt growth if done appropriately.... that is a myth. We have plenty of quality programs at Shop dot Stronger Team dot com. 

[Leogus4377]

@Moneyisamust11

U should try doing push ups and pull ups. pull ups actually help u grow while increase ur upper body strength

[zachy1394]

what do you have to do to get invited

[StrongerTeamDotCom]

@zachy1394 Be a really, really good basketball player :) j/k - Nike has high school and AAU evaluators that make the selections...

[zachy1394]

@StrongerTeamDotCom oh alright thanks :)

[BeRzErKeR258]

What can i do to increase my vertical jump? 

[StrongerTeamDotCom]

@BeRzErKeR258 Visit Can He Dunk dot com!

[franchisejr15]

@BeRzErKeR258 Air Alert 3, or buy some jumpsoles

[StrongerTeamDotCom]

@franchisejr15 I don't recommend either of those programs....

[joshswagg13]

what type of equipment should I be using?

[StrongerTeamDotCom]

@joshswagg13 Strength training equipment... aka... weights!

[joshswagg13]

hey coach, is there a way to improve your explosiveness at home?

[StrongerTeamDotCom]

@joshswagg13 Yes, but near as effectively as being able to use weights and equipment!

[qqkikia]

@ i've got this question.... if u live in europe is there a chance that you can be invited to one of those camps or even enter the NBA :)

[StrongerTeamDotCom]

@qqkikia I believe these camps are for US residents... but I don't know that for sure! Keep working hard though!

[Ivan1781]

how u even get into these camps?

[StrongerTeamDotCom]

@Ivan1781 You have to be invited by the folks at Nike...

[badyy1000]

THANKS forr uploading these videos .

[StrongerTeamDotCom]

@badyy1000 My pleasure, glad you like them!

[kevjumbaboo]

Any tips too improve my game better? Only in grade 8, 5'11/6. really want to make it to the NCAA, have amazing skills, great grades. But I live in T-dot... Need to be amazing and I have to dunk by the end of this month, getting rim stuffed a lot.

[StrongerTeamDotCom]

@kevjumbaboo I am actually a strength & conditioning coach... not a basketball coach... so I don't advise on skill work. As for improving your explosiveness, check out Can He Dunk dot com!

[24COKingz]

Who is thst number 30? He is a beast!!!

[StrongerTeamDotCom]

@24COKingz Iman Shumpert from Ga Tech!

[24COKingz]

@StrongerTeamDotCom He plays point guard? Hes pretty tall.

[ABOVETHEINFLUENCE54]
