Man you called it haha. I think the writing is on the wall.

Even when Loon was a rookie and clearly injured, I'd be stunned by some of his stat lines--he'd come in for 6-8 minutes, get 4 points, 5 boards and a steal. His rebounding even while hobbled was just shockingly good...but it's clearly his defense that's come the furthest since then. His ability to stay light on his feet and adjust to the guards is clearly the product of tons of work, study, and pride. I mean, watch his feet while he's guardin' Harden. Count the steps. He's never still so he never gets blown by even though he cannot accelerate nearly as well as Harden can. I really hope he busts out that offensive game this year. Imagine what we could do with another 35% 3-point-shooting center, or even a guy with a respectable 18-footer who can pass and maybe even drive on some guys. He'd be the perfect main center to WCS' second-unit short roll artist.

Alch in your opinion, what's the likelihood of Marques Chriss taking Zo roster spot...I think the percentage is higher than a lot of people think.

I got a fever, and the only prescription is more Looney.

Athletic Alchemy

Even preseason should be intriging this year

Athletic Alchemy

Thanks! I was pleased that fit!

SunniDaZambi

Drive slow is the epitome of Looney's career...Great choice alch.

You mean to tell me that Kevon Looney's brother's name is Kevin?! fantastic content as always! October cannot come fast enough! so excited for this season!

Athletic Alchemy

Good idea

Athletic Alchemy

Interesting idea... my concern would be you would be pulling him out of the paint too much. I mean he is great on the switch, but he wouldn’t be the rebounder he is always standing out at the 3 point line. (Defensively) but I agree offensively he could pose some real mismatches and it might unlock some of his bag.

Athletic Alchemy

Totally get it! That role in pick up ball is even more valuable than the league.

Athletic Alchemy

You did! He has very good touch just got use it!

Athletic Alchemy

I would never claim to be on his level of knowledge. But I feel like we have a lot of the same believes and basketball principles.

Athletic Alchemy

Thanks man! If I had the time I would! Even tho the videos are short the process is long. But I will expand on these across the league just got to find time in between during the season.

Yo i'm not even a dubs fan and I love these shits. Man I wish you were a celtics fan!! If there was a version of you putting all this shit out on the Celtics... bruh I'd pay 20 bucks a month no lie. Anyways, thanks alc for the great content, some of the best money I ever spend is on your patreon. Love your shit bro

Pirate Ramsay

Honestly Alch, Kobe would love your vids. His musecage vids on espn and yours have an uncanny similarity/mimicry of tone and analysis.

Pirate Ramsay

Very interesting video, loving it. I was wondering if you could do the "tools' vid to other NBA players eg. Harden, Kawhi, Kd, Giannis, Kyrie etc. Interesting to see theirs from your point of view.

Dope vid Alc. Loon’s a beauty for sure. He looks pretty good in those High School highlights. Did I spot a Dirk one foot fade from about the elbow at the beginning of em? If he can have that in his bag that’d be nice.

Kevin Chan

Last season Looney slowly became one of my favourate players in the NBA because I kind of play in a similar way like him (not boasting i swear but all I do on the court are just dirty works XD). This video encapsulates everything that I think of him thank you!

David Liao

Some of the sites I found listed Looney as a SF. I would LOVE to see us uncork his offense and we start Looney as the 3 on most nights. Show us all that training you had with KD, Loon! We can let Paschall inherit Looney's old role as the switchable backup big while McKinnie maintains his role from last season (McKinnie just doesn't have the goods to be a starter) I can see a Curry, DLo, Looney, Dayday, WCS/Spellman lineup until Klay is baked back to top form.

Stevie Ray

That was sick Alch These player narrations are prime Should do one mid way through the season on Lebrons current state for YouTube just to get more followers

Athletic Alchemy

Thanks! That would be Kanye “drive slow”

Luke Smith

Great video alchemy, what’s the tune playing thru Lonneys HS highlights?

Athletic Alchemy

I think he and DLO will be a sneaky good PnR duo

Athletic Alchemy

With the big gold chain! 😀

Athletic Alchemy

I feel you. Same impact

Athletic Alchemy

That he is... I think he is starting to gain a lol swag becoming one of the main guys.

Athletic Alchemy

🙏🏽

If Looney can manfest a solid mid range. Hes a double double guy! That'll do wonders for the Dubs. His Gap Gawd badge is his most important badge as guarding on the perimeter is such a big thing for bigs in the league now. If Looney makes the jump that'll be an amazing piece for any team if we don't pay him.

John Z

Been rooting for Loon as soon as we drafted him. Man is exceptional, should bring back that high top as well.

Nsikan Usen

Some strange reason, I feel Looney could develop into what we got from Iggy thou he plays center usually... And if he can knockdown a jumper consistently like you showed from his h.s. highlights, this season is gon be littyyy...
