[Lowlight] Luka reacts to Sengun’s mesmerizing pump fake
worst pumpfake of all time?
well in his defense Ayton doesn’t do well against pump fakes
https://www.reddit.com/r/nba/comments/1aj5x65/highlight_jokics_pump_fake_has_ayton_totally_lost/
didn’t work this time though
He has this dumbass habit where he turns to look at shots before they leave the shooters’ hand, shit pisses me off so bad
Pretty much from the exact same spot at the top of the key too.
Worst that comes to mind is the Angel Reese clip that’s always posted on social media.
What’s the clip?
This
It’s so exaggerated that it might work because no one would expect someone to pump fake like that. She looks like she’s lining up to do a standing broad jump.
Does the team tell her that you need to actually be a decent shooter for pump fakes to work?
I would have loved to see him get a foul for worst pump fake ever here. Given by Reneau
Worked twice on Hayes last game
It’s all about your body language. Everything about how you’re moving needs to sale the idea that you’re actually gonna shoot and you can just tell there’s no intention to actually shoot there so yeah pretty bad.
You gotta fake a pass to make a pass, amirite coach?
and Hayes still bites on that hideous pump fake everytime
Lakers center in a nutshell, one tries hard but is an idiot. The other has more awareness but only tries half the time
Someone’s gotta teach them the fusion dance I swear
Jaxson Hayes is just out there cosplaying as a golden retriever. If you pretend to throw the tennis ball, he’s gonna chase after it
golden retriever on the court. DV demon dog off the court.
Golden retrievers aren’t known for violence lol. He randomly hip checked the wizards mascot this year and is known for domestic violence. He’s just got a room temperature iq.
Luka grown seen Dwight Powell pump fakes
This is what I came here to say…you haven’t truly been pump faked unless you’ve been around the goat DP

Actually that was quite good on Aytons part as he bit on those pump fakes multiple times in game 1. But I’m guessing you didn’t even watch that games and just want to meme.
First time to r/nba? This place is for memes only.
For a man who loves to slide in random girls DMs, he sure hasn’t been doing a good job of playing well recently. Performing horribly in recent games and trying to use your NBA leverage is crazy 😭
Sengun is like the Anti-Jokic when it comes to touch around the basket. Bro bricks every floater and hook he takes.
He is a center shooting sub 50 a lot. His touch is dogshit.
He’s an interesting player, totally plays off flow, never really has his footing underneath him and I think that’s why a lot of the finishes seem off kilter
He’s also undersized and has historically struggled with decently sized big men
You could see that last night. He’s trying to play Joker ball and it’s not really working. I would still, if I was coaching him, have him play the low block and just slow grind cause I think he actually has enough size and footwork that against single coverage he can get to a decent shot enough of the time. If he truly is undersized in the matchup, then he’s going to have to develop a 15 foot face up game with a little jumpshot. Just something where he can go glass or whatever
The problem with having him on the low block is he just gets crowded instantly, you can see the paint is PACKED since the Rockets often play with 3-4 non shooting threats at any given time
Right, the preponderance of non shooters is very tough in that instance
Yep, the reality is the FO has assigned this season as developmental for the young core with how they moved at the deadline with the injuries
The fall from grace has been fast. The conversations about him following Eurobasket over the summer were putting him in the elite, and now he’s just being clowned on.
He started the season so great too, then his shooting dropped to hell, teams adjusted by sagging off and packing the paint since the team plays 3-4 non shooters and welp theyre fucked
There are 2 Sengun’s, one who is fully engaged and plays motivated defense, and gets into the paint and bullies players and has big impact. And then there’s the one that shows up 80% of the time that is disengaged, thinks he’s still on a 20 win team, can do whatever he wants, not provide any help on defense, not rebound, and just yell at teammates for his own missed assignments.
he fell for one from Jokic two years ago, from the same spot, almost just as bad as a pump fake too
well thats because jokic looks exactly like that when shooting 3’s
Christ he even looked at the basket. Jokic seemed to react slowly because he couldn’t believe it worked.
I mean, because that’s an actual pump fake. This Sengun one was an indecisive pump fake. He couldn’t decide if he wanted to fake a shot or fake a pass.
Nah that wasn’t nearly as bad, Jokic used his whole body to sell that pump fake. This was just a half assed version of it.
Lol I was onna say this. Ayton has outplayed Sengun so far in this series.
Dude went from going band for band with Jokic in that thriller early in the season to getting cooked by Dominayton 😭 genuinely never seen a players stocks drop off a cliff like this
micheal jordan signature shimmy
Makes no sense it’s like a half pump fake half pass fake
Ayton locked in
“That shit is ass”
“Pfft! I’d lock that shit down” - Luka
LMAO
Susgun
Haha Luka!! Pssst he says … Although classic it got Rui 😭
Me when i disagree with the kill cam in cod ha
Ayton is me at pick up, jokes on you I literally can’t jump even if I wanted to lol
The slow pump fake was one of my go to moves, haha that shit worked 80% of the time, was crazy.
“OH, BE NICE!”
Luka wrist is broken
Hey! That’s the same hand motion I make when I say “Kobe!” as my crumpled paper bounces off the rim of the garbage can.
Pumpffft fake
That’s not a pump fake, that’s a pump demonstration
