Great decision to cover alternative games when warriors play basement teams. Very happy to go another subscription level for this sort of content.

He bullied AD he is not bullying this kid. But aye! I hope your right!

Athletic Alchemy

lol Kmart is spot on! The wanting to play with Kyrie thing is what really gets under my skin....like its mind boggling!

Athletic Alchemy

I'm very happy you covered this game!! Thank you!

Won't need to play any mind games. Draymond has shut down AD in the playoffs for years now. Dominated him actually in the playoffs last year. Just demoralized him. Just consider that GSW did a great job defensively on Giannis back in Dec when we played them in Milwaukee, and Draymond didn't even play lol. Had a great game plan and completely shut down MIL's offense. Held them to 95 points at home. Now imagine what they'll do to him with Draymond in there in playoff mode. It will be domination again, mark my words. Draymond remains the best post defender in the league as well as the best help defender. In the playoffs, he goes to a whole nother level. Why people keep doubting Draymond is hilarious to me. He's the most proven, prolific winner in pro sports right now.

Yeah I’m have to see that. He won’t be able to attack his mind like he does some of these other stars.

Athletic Alchemy

🙏🏽 agreed Brogdan is key

Athletic Alchemy

Appreciate the feedback. The app is terrible. I usually wait until I’m on my desktop to comment.

Athletic Alchemy

Of course!

Athletic Alchemy

Thanks so much, Alc! Did ESPN even cover this game ? A few things: 1) I have always loved George Hill and wish I could get the image of him shtting himself at the FT line out of my head, 2) does Mike Scott need some lips tattooed on his neck to turn into mini K Mart? 3) Is Kyrie just the office slut that KD realizes hed be crazy to leave his wife for? thanks

Jim

Though don't stop the Dubs content, either.

Owen Salisbury

Nice, Alch! Keep branching out, man. This is THE road to success for ya.

Owen Salisbury

agreed. Alchemy's insight on shooting mechanics and basically everything else is worth the price of admission.

YANCEY WADE

no, I don't think Dray can stop Giannis

YANCEY WADE

I really love the breakdown of mechanics and mindset. You've really stepped up the video production quality and incorporating the promo vids/ post-game interviews gives a greater sense of soaking in the whole game. One suggestion I have is maybe visually highlighting players on the video (arrow, circle, calling out jersey #, location on screen) when you're pointing them out. I'm probably not the only one rewinding frequently during videos to really soak in what you're talking about from the beginning of the play. I agree you should be charging more to be a Patreon and maybe have some different tiers, especially if you're gonna cover other teams during regular or post season. P.S. how the hell is anyone making a new paragraph on Patreon messages? The enter button finishes the post vs skipping to a new line...had to copy/paste the new line character from a text msg to here. -_-

Dave Han

Been waiting for a non Warriors breakdown for a minute this was really refreshing. This game IMO showcased the Bucks just being a hard playing defensive team that can do serious damage in the Playoffs, if Brogdon's back by the 2nd round they might give us a serious run for our money. Great vid Alch!

Ezra Abbey

People love to say Draymond ain't worth the max. Whether or not he gets it is one thing, but people need to understand why Draymond's value is super high. Draymond will shut down Giannis just like he shuts down AD year after year after year. Guys like AD, Giannis, Griffin, etc are exactly the kind of players Draymond is built to completely lock down.

Your right that probably will be a good one too! Ill have to record all three and go from there.

Athletic Alchemy

Normally Id say it happening...but dudes combativeness is elite. That might make it happen. Like Ben! aint happing!

Athletic Alchemy

dang!

Athletic Alchemy

not really smart I covered both and chose this one. I have no problem doing more work if it means I get to cover a good game. At the half with Dubs I stopped taking notes.

Athletic Alchemy

They are going to need Brogdan back for sure

Athletic Alchemy

thanks!

Athletic Alchemy

I will say he doesn't really play up in the air. its just length and strength so that helps.

Athletic Alchemy

Lol you know me too well! I had one Queued up, but Im sit on it for the right moment.

Athletic Alchemy

Nice! I'll throw in a request for Blazers Nugs!

Brad Smith

Damn Giannis was truly dominant. He does it on both ends. If he gets the jumpshot....it’s over.

Bryce is making 330 million over 13 years. Crazy

Edward Zeng

smart choice to cover this game haha

as a bucks fan: YESSSS

It looks like the Warriors will be playing the Bucks if we can take the west.

Strong Foru

Cool to mix it up once in a while. Dope as always Alchemy!

Kyle Walker

Loved the breakdown, wouldn't mind seeing more replacement videos next year on boring mid season games +1 on Giannis MVP vote Hope you're wrong about his sustainability

Stevie Ray

Was expecting a caruso roast, but yup ill eat whatevr uncle alc puts on the table 😂

Gerrard Israel Laraga

you really needa been on espn bro, your shit better than anything i see on there

Slater

Alc you are the goat for this

Slater

Glad you did this over the Warriors one mate! Giannis is something!

Joshua Fayemi

Good judgment on the game selection, are there any Warrior fans not looking ahead to whom we might eventually play?

Steven Stanley

Hey Alch, thanks for the great coverage. I didn't watch the game, but I was getting tweet reports on it as it went on. Then when I finally tuned in to watch the warriors, this game was still going on in the final 4 minutes. I watched and was instantly hooked. A hard fought win for the Bucks. Your breakdown helped me see the big picture of how the whole game played out. Like reading the final chapter of a book, and wondering what happened in the previous chapters. You man, covered those chapters beautifully. Can't wait for the playoffs and Alchy-off takes!

Mitch Moyers

By the way Stephan a Smith says it was not him that ran on the court during the fight.

martin pattison

Bucks are better than the sum of their parts. Phil not so much

Athletic Alchemy

haha thats real! I was hoping they could have pushed it to 50 at some point

Athletic Alchemy

It was refreshing for sure!

Athletic Alchemy

Thats a good idea for a new tier

Athletic Alchemy

crazy how bucks just asserted their dominance near the end. just gave a feeling that they were taking it and philly didnt have a choice. announcers noticed fans getting up and leaving at like the minute mark. that warriors-lakers game was bad for both teams. didnt teach shit other than being careless with the possessions. great..just what warriors need going in to playoffs

Chris Williams

Warriors video should just be a cut of the behind-the-back dish from Steph and say "It only gets worse for the Lakers from here." I turned it off after the 1st quarter.

Love it. I really enjoy when you break down other games, especially with these warriors ones being of little consequence.

Spence

Wow, I was going to say that you should start doing takes on other teams. Or that you should offer different tiers to cover requested teams. I didn’t want to express this because if it ain’t broke, don’t fix it. Just letting you know this is well appreciated

Terrel Edmondson

I understand this was a much better game to breakdown. Both big warrior competitors
