Barstool's record breaking run: • We Broke an NBA Record...

Jimmy, I need a video about the MVP race ASAP, It's getting rlly interesting
my newborn was assigned trans at birth
@@TransKidsMafia?????
@@TransKidsMafiaw
His last 2 videos was him unnecessarily slandering Embiid, I thought he was gonna go for the 3 peat. Wonder how he talked himself out of that
@@TransKidsMafia congrats !
In another video on KZhead, a retired Ateve Nash knocks down his first 34 free throws as a demo of his technique. NBA players when away from the pressure of a game shoot far higher than their percentage during games.
Same for kickers in the nfl. Without anything on the line it’s pretty much automatic. Crazy how good players can be without really trying. I’ve been fortunate enough to play with/against Chris Paul twice at the ymca. He didn’t miss.
After 16 hours they probably have just as much pressure and fatigue.
That’s pretty obvious… they shoot free throws during the course of a 48 minute pro-level high intensity game with tens of thousands of people watching them. When a regular hooper is in just a gym shooting nothing but free throws with fresh legs, hitting 41 in a row isn’t as difficult as Jxmy made it seem here with “analytics”. Cuz I watched the video of these guys doing this, and they all suck and do not hoop whatsoever.
@@SmurfyBoi2227mantis would cook you
@ruairimcgarrile8378 mantis slow tho
Embiid has his eye on this record 😂😂😂
he can probably accomplish this record in 1 game too haha
Giannis 😂
Free throws aren’t something a player should easily make consecutively since you have to account in game pressure, stadium noise, fatigue, rhythm etc. If you put NBA players in a gym they could do it but in a game is a whole different stratosphere. Everyone’s human at the end of the day
Yea this was my first thought. I love Jxmy but with all due respect this video just seemed like filler. There's absolutely no way an open gym is comparable to an NBA game, its like watching Ben Simmons sink threes in practice. They don't shoot 41 consecutive free throws and rotate guys out as it happens. Its quite literally apples and oranges. Not sure what's been going on but there's been several of his videos over the past 6mo/year that just feel like reaching for content.
@@littlesmallworld123 You seem like a very fun person to be around
@@owennkirk For criticism?
It’s their job they good
@@littlesmallworld123Maybe Draft Kings paid Jxmy for this video. 😂.
Me and my homies do this after every hoop sesh, we make a three, an off hand lay, and a free throw all back to back everytime before we leave. So that's 9 consecutive shots at the end of every hoop sesh, and trust me, free throws become the hardest shot when you're freedom depends on it😂
In college, had to make a free throw to leave practice. It was harder than it sounds. After all that running and shooting and just wanting to hit the sack, everything was on the line LOL
Yup, you never leave the court on a miss.
Me and my homies have to make consecutive wide open 3s at the end of basketball session. That would be 6 straight 3s between us. Let me tell you, the pain of making 5 and then the last guy bricks it is real.
@@exeterra4825me and my brother would make 10 free throws in a row each before we could leave😭 we would be stuck out there for hours lmaoo
9:51 Looking for a free throw in a haystack that got me laughing really hard 😂😂😂
"THAT BOY BENT" 😂😂😂😂🤣 if you know, you know 😂

I came lookin for the mantis comments lol
@@owningsince99 it took me a minute to remember he did describe him as a “reversed question mark” 😂😂🤣
The 'Mulligan' takes away from it somewhat.
The mulligan literally breaks the streak, as far as I am concerned they never did it
41 without missing, except for the miss!!! 😂😂💀
Yeah I don't understand that at all
"Somewhat". Not even, it's just straight up not a thing.
They had to let Dave be involved for sure
Jimmy, this 45 FTs record is now on Wikipedia's "List of NBA regular season records", thanks for sharing!! tons of articles were written about it. Surprising you didn't stumble upon them before the search
How is this in any way related to the nba?
@@josephmother2659 Did you watch the video?
@@josephmother2659are u rly asking how a record set in an nba game is related to the nba?
@@iBreakinlol my fault I thought he meant the barstool “record” I read the number wrong
I’ve mentioned this before in the comments on your channel but I’m 2002-2003 season in San Antonio prior to the Lakers/Spurs game I saw Kobe hit hundreds of free throws without missing. He shot about 1k and missed maybe 5 or 6. That was after he got to the gym at 5am, worked out, did his own shoot around, ate, worked out again and did a second shoot around.
Here I was expecting some all star weekend recap or analysis, instead I see a video about consecutive free throws and I'm still glued to the subject matter. You are a warlock sir.
tbf @rickybobbysdriver555 I am from Indy and you didn't miss much with all star weekend. The game was slow and all the Saturday night events were lackluster outside Sabrina vs. Steph.
@@CurtisFaded I'm sure the city was jumping. Also, I kind of liked the LED court. I'm sure it isn't new but I haven't seen it before.
bro, Jimmy going insane looking for the most consecutive free throws is very funny🤣🤣
So like quick video idea. Since the regular season is coming to an end in a month or so... What is the maximum amount of wins possible a team can get and miss a guaranteed spot at the playoffs (finish 7th) and whats the minimum possible amount of wins a team needs to barely make it there (finish 6th)
The max to be 7th seed is probably somewhere around 54-56 wins and it would likely be the Kings. The minimum to make the 6th seed would probably be around 34-36 by the Pacers, the Heat, or the Magic. For this season.
I got u bro. Say the Celtics start losing for some reason and drop to the 6th seed. Seeing as they are the team with the best record they have the most wins of any team which means to drop to the 6th seed they would need the least amount of wins. This is of course assuming every other team is actively trying to win games. Figuring out how many games would depends on the expected record of every team by the end of the season. It’s not that hard to do. Since seeding is based on fg %, all u need to do is take the 6th team in the east and figure out how many more games they are likely to win (fg% times games left), add that to their current wins and that gives u how many games the 6th seed will win. They have 25 games left so multiplying that by their win rate u get 14 more wins. Adding this to their current wins u get 46 wins. Celtics rn have 44 wins. So realistically they only need 1 more win to get the 6th seed (they need to have less wins than the pacers would so the pacers jump up to 5th seed). This is assuming fg% stays the same. Hard to factor in things like injuries and changing roster dynamics. I can’t be bothered to calculate the other one.
@IMacSports75@@tarzanindianman6375 thnx brothers 🙌
@@thanasismilios7224 Yee nws bro
Love the amount of research and how it's presented 🙏🏼
I mean these stats are fun and all, but you can't really compare doing this in the middle of an NBA game to just doing specifically the free throws in a gym. Put practically any random NBA players to do this in a gym and they'll have it done in 10 minutes
Doesn’t even have to be nba players, just any decent hooper can probably do this in much less than 16 hours. Those guys were the most unathletic non hoopers I’ve seen attempt something like this. Which is pretty ironic for their name…
@@SmurfyBoi2227 Ironic or apt? Barstool implies un-athleticism to me.
But nba players are pros, they've been doing it their entire lives. These guys got nothing to do with basketball so it evens out.
@@SmurfyBoi2227 saying that average "decent hooper" could shoot 90% FT avg with no game fatigue or crowd pressure, the odds of 41 consecutive makes would be 0.9^41=0.013 or about 1%. now lets say that the average time to rebound, pass to the next guy, let him do his routine and shoot, is about 20 seconds. 20*41=820 seconds . so, every 820 seconds, they have about a 1% chance of winning, therefore a 99% chance of losing. following this, we can see that the odds of continually losing are (0.99)*(0.99)*(0.99)*... etc. Now we can define that the amount of attempts "x" needed to reach 50/50 odds of winning / losing by: 0.5=0.99^x, where x=69 attempts. Therefore, the average time it would take 41 "decent hoopers" to make 41 consecutive free throws would be about 69*820=56,580 seconds or 943 minutes, or about 15 hours and 43 minutes, pretty much the same time that the barstool employees took
Jimmy can really make a video about anything. A genuine great storyteller!!
A 14:14 ad for Draft Kings... they must have paid you a fortune, Jimmy.
I was a little upset when I saw it, but I kind of understand:(
jimmy has to get paid and i can just skip the video
Yeah this was massively disappointing, can't even lie.
Seeing Pat Bev talk bout Mantis before this dropped makes it even more special
Yo for real dude I appreciate the visual and talking style of these. They look like they could take forever to make I really appreciate the effort. For someone who doesn’t always have the time to stay tapped in, these are the best to watch. Appreciate you man you inspire me and a lot of others!
3:30 Jimmy, mate, that is not at all how that probability math would work 😅 That math is implying that a free throw attempt is pure chance, no skill involved and that someone wouldn't get better at free throws as they're attempting the record
Yeah I don’t understand what he was going for with this one. Actually I do, big number=big
Also during the actual event they would probably just restart the series so they had way more attempts at getting 41 in a row than he calculates
I’m not sure what you mean. If someone’s skill leads them to shoot 70% from the line, then the theoretical chance of them making a free throw is 70%. The skill level is the chance
“Todays video is sponsored by draft kings?” REALLY???? NO WAY
Now that's what you call story telling!! You took a record I don't care about by a team I've never heard of in a sport I have only a passing interest in and made me watch a 14 minute video about it, and enjoy it. Well done sir!!
The elephant in the room is that you're comparing in-game attempts to a collaborative effort in a gym. Add in fatigue, crowd noise, sledging and the pressure of performing on the international stage and these random guys 100% never achieve this.
It was still impressive, but my only critique is the use of the mulligan.
What’s a mulligan
@@joeyhernandez7908 a retry
@joeyhernandez7908 A mulligan is basically a redo. Retry. Redraw. So during the challenge someone missed, and instead of restarting from the beginning, they all agreed not to count that miss. They continued with the challenge even though technically they had failed it. They only did it once, but it changed the context I feel. In the NBA, there is no mulligan. So I wonder how many games had 41 free throws made with one miss in-between.
@@durpshady7751 wow that completely changed everything! Thx for the context bro. I agree lol. Does a full 180 on how I found this impressive at first 💀
It's still insane. Just watch their live video and you'll get the idea. 16hrs straight is insane.@@joeyhernandez7908
Would love to see a vid about how big of an epidemic sports gambling has become 😬

This dude is a fantastic data analyst. Seriously impressive the amount of work he puts into a video

That takes the fun out of the search lol then he wouldn’t have a video
I will make five 3 pointer’s for every like this comment gets
No one knows you lil bro
No you won't
Quit begging for something that means nothing and get a job instead
Draft Kings employees shooting free throws...? Seriously??
Bro the amount of work, time and energy he puts into these videos are absolutely insane. This man deserves way more subs !
Love this one. You put a big smile on my face on a day when I needed it. Thanks man.
Great work. But, the dude got a mulligan? Doesn't count in my book if that's the case.
41 without missing! …except for the miss, but it’s the boss so we won’t count that 😂😂😂💀
Thank you sir!
I won't pretend like a ft in an open gym is the same as a ft in a NBA game
I really asked myself this freethrow streak in the nba!! You sir is truly amazing
I found one more game, 2012 NBA Western Conference Semifinals Game 3: Oklahoma City Thunder at Los Angeles Lakers, May 18, 2012. There were 49 consecutive free throws.
It’s wild, Tate was my English Teacher in 8th grade at Windham High School in Ohio. Swear on my life😂
Roy Tate Moore.
Wow
I once was part of a similar crazy event like this, it happened during the first training for the basketball team of the company I was working for, so there was a mix of amateur players and random people that wanted to exercise, one of the drills was each one will shoot a free-throw and if you miss everybody else has to run around the court 1 time, NOBODY missed, we were at least 20 people!!! at the end the couch was kind of pissed because he was expecting us to run a lot so he went to the free-throw line and just flip the ball with one hand to miss it on purpose and HE ALSO MADE IT!!! we were screaming and jumping around like monkey too.😂😂
Jimmy this is why I'm here!! You are outstanding. Great stat dig loved it!!!🎉🎉🎉🎉

After watching this entire video and realizing all of the research that went into this video all I can say is……MUCH RESPECT! 🫡 ✊🏾
Bro!! Awesome video!!! lolol I had no idea I could care so much about something I know so little about....
0:49 Well... we all think the same for sure. I mean I never missed an open layup😅
Jimmy’s ALWAYS 2 the rescue…🙌🏾🙌🏾
Jmy: “0:49” Shaq: ‘I got a question. _Does the back of my hand smell like Icy Hot?’_
Only jimmy could find I completely useless stat and have me intrigued for 14 minutes 😂😂 love you homie
This is the exact type of random videos that makes JxmyHighroller amazing
I think this video isnt about freethrow streaks but he just showcased his patience, resarching skills and effort in making a video. Great job
Man, you are quite something! Awesome job again!! Cheers
The average guy is NOT shooting 60% from the line, I’ve played enough with non hoopers to know that they MABYE hit 50%
I started playing two months ago and hit 65% ish. Best streak is 12 in a row.
In intermural basketball I went 10 for 10 over three games
Thanks I don't know how this could be useful
You are the greatest! I'm 29 years of basketball 🏀 guy ! I'm an average Joe, but I'm a 75per cent free throw shooter ' cause I take everything about basketball very serious!!! Love STATISTICS!!! And say this to MY PLAYERS!!!
We play 20 points games... One night I was being guarded by my BEST defensive guard... I hitted 26 mid range shots IN A ROW (heat check) just like HIS AIRNESS only to show my players I still CAN GIVE YOU PROBLEMS....
Jxmy single handedly keeping basketball reference in business
God these guys videos are incredible seriously keep it up man👏👀
I remember watching that hawks game in 2021 when I first got into basketball and I was going crazy because I realized that neither team had missed a free throw but nobody even seemed to notice or care
We did this kind of challenges also on the base line on the corners making as many 3-pointers in a row as possible. Barely touching the board from behind.
Had no idea the barstool guys did this, awesome work Jimmy and a truly incredible effort from the barstool guys and some really solid percentages
Except they didn’t, because their boss missed one and they didn’t count it. 🥱
Congratulations to those amazing guys!
“This is considering they are average free throw shooters…..they are not” 😂😂
I FUCKING LOVE YOUR COMMITMENT TO THIS SPORT AND YOUR COMMUNITY, JIMMY! #GOAT 🏆
Hahaha yo, I may use this binomial probability example in the stats class I teach. You really went down the rabbit hole
Take a second to appreciate Jimmy. WOW. Seriously bro.
8:19 been watching so much jimmy i already knew what he was going to say and i said it with him, "no."
mannn i appreciate the dedication to look up info like this lmaooo, salute to you sir this was entertaining
With the factor of human error always being taken into account it almost makes those type of world records more luck than skill once you get to a certain point.
The less than 16 hours were amazing but the games were truly a unicorn since we know how much pressure there is in an NBA game and you add on the mental game in FT shooting and fatigue.
It was worth it my man, you are that guy
I think a good idea for a video would be if jxmmy found out which nba season was the most competitive based on record that year and also which season had the most closed games
I think we also have to factor in the amount of energy it takes to make a free throw after running up and down a basketball court. What would have made this comparable was if the record breakers were playing a tournament of a 5 v 5 scrimmage against each other, and counting the free throws in game. That would have taken ages, but it’s also not to take away what they did. 41 basketball players coming together just to do free throws? Well that’s gonna take inside 10 attempts
1:13 that Steph compliment to Giannis jibe was sly indeed. 😂😂😂
They should continue the streak as they have not missed yet Great vid and amazing research
I thought you were going to have found recordings of all the pre play-by-play games and watched them to tally up free throws based off your committment levels hahaha
I think that despite being great shooters obviously, after being gassed in a game, and having the pressure of fans it becomes, waaaay harder. Great video.
Hey Jxmy, loved your video dude! Im just wondering about a small but yet maybe important thing you maybe could have mised. It's about that one game in which every team shot perfect from the line at 9:10 because technically they didn't miss a single free-throw so the streak continues into thenext game if im right. So with that being said maybe you already got your winner. Keep up the good work
Lol, I like these probability videos. Nice work man.
🎉Dude!! You are a force of nature!!!❤
I watched alot of the stream and it was really entertaining especially if you know everyone involved
When the world needed Jimmy the most he preformed wit excellence
I admire your dedication
It is pedestrian, nba players dont go out there to score 41 freethrows in a row, that's never crossed their minds lol
0:52 didnt have to violate me like that man
Jimmy, we need a video about if any of the best NFL Player’s in the NFL would have a chance at making an NBA roster. Travis and Jason Kelce had a video about this on their podcast and they had conflicting opinions.
You would really benifit from hiring a python developer to do all the web scraping and data sience for you. What manually took you days could have been automated and done in an hour. Or you could learn python yourself, it's much easier than people think.
I was thinking this!
Jimmy always with the clutchest videos fr
Jimmy made a Video about data Analysis and the power of excel Right here. Nothing else
Never thought I’d see jxmmyhighroller doing a video on barstool sports
Funny how the boss gets a mulligan
Jimmy you my guy but if you think it would take even the worst free throw shooting team in the league more than two hours to hit 41 in a row in a closed gym, ya buggin. Don't forget: Your data is of players taking free throws while they're trying to do one of the most difficult tasks there is - beat other professional athletes at their sport. Not all free throws are the same. Get the Bar Stool guys shooting free throws while they're also trying win a game against the Pistons. They'll be shooting until Cunningham retires.
I feel bad saying that publicly available Ai could have given you the answer in seconds if you asked the right prompt.
