Rudy with a jump hook...?

[Piso]

Jump hook against Jarrett Allen 4:17

I have seen him dunk multiple times with his left. Here is some finest example.

Would be interesting to see stats on that. Most good shot blockers block equally well with both hands and chose it instinctively based on angles and situations. Certainly seen Rudy block with left as well. In this compilation for example 42 blks with right and 23 with left.

Lol you thought wes meant that he literally only ever dunks or blocks with his right hand?

Of course he uses both, almost every player ever does, he is saying he dunks and blocks with his right hand way more. I agree. As do your stats from watching his highlight video.

Moar Rudy highlights:

This is the highlight everyone should be talking about. This is better than Curry hitting from 45 feet.

I could watch it all day. Oh I how love Rudy. The motor on this guy is unbelievable. He is special.


The hook shot was Gleague level. Chasing down two blocks is hall of fame level.

**** Rudy for attempting a hook shot in a pointless game.

tbh don't think i'd me much thrilled about rudy getting a hook shot out of situations where he'd get trapped to do it - and would spend more time training to avoid these traps than a baby hook

but that midrange shot he made, how much video of it we have ?

Hook shot will not work in today's NBA. Nice try though.

It wouldn’t work against Rudy, but he is Rudy, so it’s ok.

Eric Woodyard told Locke that Rudy's been working with a shooting coach this summer. Maybe that's kind of regular stuff for him, but it seems to me he might be trying to expand his game a bit. (Maybe he wants to be a bit more offensively versatile, mostly because he would get 2 great looks a game from 15 feet or so. And if he makes these, defenses have to take note.)

Yes, you can pretty easily. Just look at any center like Rudy who in the past demanded post-up looks, like Andre Drummond and Dwight Howard.

Or like Kareem Abdul Jabbar, Wilt Chamberlain, Hakeem Olajuwon, Patrick Ewing, Robert Parish, Darrell Dawkins, Shaquille O'neal, Moses Malone, Bill Laimbeer, Bill Russell, George Mikan, David Robinson....... Do I need to keep going?? So you mean to tell me that when thinking of post dominant NBA Centers, the best your brain could muster up was Dwight Howard and Andre Drummond?? Are you 12 years old by chance???

so there are people on this board who are demanding that rudy remain a one demensional offensive shooter?

that seems kinda silly

when a team does everything in their power, doubling, positioning their best players to stop rudy's dunk, and there is noone open to pass the ball to, folks don't want him to turn, and nail a hook shot? just back off.

ok, yeah, that makes sense. even if he can hit it.

i don't want him to switch over to a hook shooter, his best move is obviously to dunk, but to have some extra moves when things break down, i'm all for it.
