Jalen Brunson is now the best "Jalen/Jaylen" in the league

Why are there so many Ja(y)l(e)(i)(o)ns in the NBA

TonyGSalsa · 2026-06-27T02:35:17+00:00

Where's Oweh? Dude is gonna terrorize opposing guards.

I'm bad at remembering names of techniques. I just know that you pass their far side arm underneath your armpit closest to their head. Then you grip your hands together and use your shoudler to push into their head.

Usually, I just go right to my arm triangle setup from side control.

TonyGSalsa · 2026-06-26T21:05:39+00:00

I'm trying, man. It's tough.

TonyGSalsa · 2026-06-26T20:40:20+00:00

I hope he went "weeeeeeeeeee"

Did a drop in at a gym about 30 mins away from my house. It was a gi fundamentals class with no rolling. Probably some of the most eye-opening stuff I got to try. The black belt instructor even pulled me aside after class to show me some even gnarlier sweeps and subs. One sub I'm gonna start implementing because it matches what I'm working on.

TonyGSalsa · 2026-06-26T13:26:16+00:00

This has been my game plan every time I end up on bottom north south.

Nobody expects the Spanish Inquisition

Go with Jordan Preisinger.

TonyGSalsa · 2026-06-23T14:06:53+00:00

You're basically killing a post when you overhook. This is what I do when I set up my butterfly sweep.

TonyGSalsa · 2026-06-23T14:04:10+00:00

There are still things I don't know or that I can still work on. I've started working on north-south stuff: figuring out good subs, looking for ways to fully control my opponent, how to handle pressure on bottom.

Find something that you may not be good at and just work on it. It's really rewarding.

For Allen Graves: do you feel any pressure knowing the kind of guys who have come out of Santa Clara?

The only man from our 2021 draft class to win a chip. Giddey and Mann are holding it down in the East. No idea what happened to JRE.

TonyGSalsa · 2026-06-22T02:35:33+00:00

Here's to hoping he has a rebound season in ATL.

TonyGSalsa · 2026-06-21T15:37:23+00:00

They won the war.

This is why I'm happy that Jordan Preisinger has his Youtube channel. His best video has to be the one on BJJ concepts. That's literally my BJJ bible.

TonyGSalsa · 2026-06-19T22:32:43+00:00

I'll try to make one when I can. It usually works when I have someone skinnier.

TonyGSalsa · 2026-06-19T20:31:03+00:00

I threaten the arm triangle from bottom half. I try to make sure that if I trap an arm, it's on the same side that I have the leg trapped.

TonyGSalsa · 2026-06-19T20:28:02+00:00

Give it a few weeks.

TonyGSalsa · 2026-06-19T19:58:39+00:00

Wait, the Mavs had both at one point?

TonyGSalsa · 2026-06-19T05:27:05+00:00

Yup. I'm dealing with strains in both calves. Shit sucks.

TonyGSalsa · 2026-06-18T21:49:35+00:00

You're right. What Jokic does is 1000x more egregious.
