AI coach summary
Great Oak controlled the paint all night, 11/16 at the rim on 28% of their attempts. The offense flowed through #12 Jackson, who drew help on 9 possessions and found shooters in the left corner (3/5 from the LC3).
The one thing to clean up: right-side mid-range was cold (4/13) and accounted for 6 of 11 turnovers coming off of live-ball pick-up decisions. Three empty possessions in Q3 turned into Murrieta transition points.
Verdict, the game plan worked. Limit the mid-range spillover and this is a comfortable double-digit win.

Most phone-recorded games at 1080p come in well under 5 GB. A long iPad recording at 4K can blow past it. If a single game film is over 5 GB, here's how to keep it under without losing quality you'll actually use:
- Use the Compress option when you upload. HoopLab can transcode a 4K phone recording down to 1080p in your browser before the upload starts, same picture you'd review anyway, often half the file size.
- Record at 1080p, not 4K. 4K triples the file size and you can't see the difference once it's playing on a coach's laptop. 1080p is the sweet spot for film review.
- Trim pre-game warmups and post-game. A 90-minute clock turns into a 50-minute file once dead time is cut. The Highlight Editor can do this in HoopLab before you upload.
- Split a long game in two. Upload Q1+Q2 and Q3+Q4 separately. The multi-clip stitch tool re-joins them inside HoopLab so the tag log behaves like one continuous game.
- Use HEVC / H.265 if your camera supports it. Same picture, roughly half the file size of older H.264 encoding.
I know what it feels like to be the player whose work goes undocumented. Going through the recruiting process, I watched my game go unseen, no film, no data, just word of mouth and a handful of phone clips.
Youth sports is where development actually happens, but it's the level most underserved by technology. I built HoopLab for that gap. Something a parent can pick up on day one. Something an AAU coach can use without a film crew or a budget.
