The Baller Breakdown
Hosted by Professional Basketball Player Yousef Taha, The Baller Breakdown aims to share a Professional Basketball Player’s perspective on the intricacies of the game that the average spectator might not see.
I will be dissecting film, explaining why plays do or don’t work, have a weekly podcast and blogs/vlogs. As well as analyzing teams, players and potential Draft prospects.
I plan to bring a unique and professional view into the basketball world.
In this Episode I talk about how the Memphis Grizzlies are one of the hottest teams in the NBA. Led by rising star Rookie Guard Ja Morant.
In this episode, I breakdown MPJ overall. We start with a quick background story of his time in high school, college, and draft night. Then we get into his offensive repertoire and strengths. Next, we talk about his defense and how it needs some work. Finishing it off with his potential and how I think he's the final piece to take the Denver Nuggets to the top.
In this episode, I talk about when Joel Embid wants to be, he's the most dominant player on the court without many, if any, weaknesses. From his size, strength, and power to his skills and shooting touch, he's just a rare talent that we don't see too often. Did he have an embarrassing 0 point game against the Raptors? Yes, but it's how he responded after the game that might've finally lit the fire in him to get the 76ers to the NBA Finals. The only thing that can stop Joel Embid, is Joel Embid.
In Episode 5, I breakdown the Mavericks 114-100 win over the Lakers. I talk about my thoughts on Mavs Guard Delon Wright, the Mavs potential as a team, why the Lakers lost the game and what they could do to fix it.
In Episode 4, I breakdown the Clippers 114-99 win over the Mavericks. I talk about the Mavs new jersey choice, how the Clippers dominated by doing everything they wanted on both ends and that the Mavs need to toughen up and come ready to play next time, as a team.
In Episode 3, I breakdown the Celtics vs Clippers game on November 20, 2019. The Clippers won in OT 107-104.
I talk about how and why Kemba Walker struggled, how it wasn't Paul George or Kawhi Leonard that made the big time plays or shots and what ultimately cost the Celtics the game.
In Episode 2, Yousef breaks down which players he feels won't live up to their respective draft slots.
Is RJ Barret really deserving of the 3rd overall pick? Is Jarret Culver going to help the Timberwolves get back to the playoffs? Find out more in this episode of The Baller Breakdown.
