Tim Legler

He doesn't have that.

He's got a shiftiness that he can shake you and get by you because he's got to set you up.

But you think about it, and I think it's a great lesson for young players.

If you're not necessarily the most athletic, because I would call his game a grounded game.

He's got a grounded offensive game.

If you're kind of one of those guys that's got that, so here's what you have to master.

Footwork, balance, get strong, get in the weight room.

Footwork, balance, strength.

And then the last component that you can't teach that he has is a certainty in himself of what the result is going to be.

I think Jalen Brunson is more certain

And especially in big spots, when he goes up to release the basketball than any player in this league, he is the most certain of where that ball is going to end up.

And that is incredible because he's not going to shake you entirely.

He's not blowing by you and getting it to the ground.

the glass before anybody can react.

He's not getting to an area in the floor and elevating 38, 40 inches for a mid range pull up or a lean back.

He's not doing that.

He's a grounded offensive player that you still can't stop because he uses his strength, footwork, balance IQ.

And at the end of it, he's so sure of himself.

It's, it's, that's the really, to me, the final component sets him apart.

He is one of those rare players that like the brighter, the lights that's, that's what he's kind of been built for his entire life.
