5 Ways to Become a Better Passer | Get More ASSISTS!

[@nathanlawson313]

#1 should be knowing your teammates tendencies.. Running sets is always better than running plays. Forget what teammates are "good at" or where they "should" go. What do they LIKE to do? WHERE do they like to operate? Passing becomes so much easier when you know where their sweet spots are and can read each others minds. In competitive hoops, the window to score is so small. Feeding them where they are comfortable and in the FLOW eliminates any hesitating and then forced, challenged shots. Great video. Loved the rest of these too. Especially #5, get downhill, slashing, aka "a probing PG" (Tony Parker). It's like running motion before a play in football. You don't have to score. Do it just because... see how the defense reacts. It WILL open something up. When it does, then see my #1 above.

Sooo facts

[@neospiderman2165]

Unfortunately everyone at runs stands around at 5 out offense With no one shooting above 20% from 3 expect like 4 people

[@adoniscoralde4337]

I think passing to a spot instead of directly to the target for hitting to cutters, should be emphasized more

[@jdbtabouret.218]

This is normal.

[@Yasairyo1]

passing is one of the most important skills in basketball , thx for the video!

[@ByAnyMeansBasketball]

Of course!

[@MegaMewtwoYPlayz]

​@ByAnyMeansBasketball Hey bro so let's say I am taking the ball up the court and I see a defender dropping leaving a teamate open for 3 in the corner how can I hit a teamate in the corner without looking directly at my teamate and making the pass? Are there any ways to hit others cross court with a pass that has good form?

[@joaquincarloscervantes6007]

Hey @By Any Means Basketball, ive been watching your videos for a while now I'm only ten years old and you've been helping me improve my bball ever since I've found your channel I've been getting better and better just because of you... Thanks man

Hands down one of the best no bs basketball content creators on KZbin

[@ByAnyMeansBasketball]

Appreciate that!

[@nat_hayes]

Delivery and Mindset are so key in becoming a better passer and playmaker. Just like attacking the basket or creating your drive, dont be afraid of contact and pushing through a defender or a couple bodies to get into a pass. Just like wide open shots or cuts to the basket a wide open pass is not routine and you're gonna be under some kind of pressure 90% of the time mobile or stationary. Great vid as always C

[@COOLSAUCE21]

Understanding teammates and what they like to do and where they expect the ball is huge. Along with communication on the court. And one pro tip to not get your passes intercepted is to throw in a fake before making the pass. It's simple, but not many people do these things.

[@Kobifans]

I love your channel. This reminds me of Kobe. and Not just riding the bus. You're already this guy before Kobe passed away.

[@ry_an.]

kobe hated passing

[@Kobifans]

@@ry_an. bruh

[@ivanchelo]

The one thing that made me a passing wizard was being a cutter first. It's so frustrating to put all that effort and energy into getting open to create a wide open lay up just to be missed by the pg. Always reward your cutters and you will get easy baskets. The ball is always faster than the players.

[@ikingsaucyi8968]

always coming in clutch wit the vids

[@Jollofmuncher2000]

[@raqhis3494]

[@potatopoison1130]

Love this video as a floor general myself hardest part is knowing your teammates tendencies

[@samsaintval4061]

Thank you for the enlightenment! Can you do a Rajon Rondo breakdown? A true Floor General.

[@samsaintval4061]

Just when i thought you.. lol you already have a rajon rondo video

[@Rkxves]

i've always loved playing defense and always wanted to be a good passer, i've never been interested in isoball or being a 1st or second option for scoring. I've wanted to have a game like Jason Kidd and Jrue Holiday. those are my two favorite players and they're the only people o could watch highlights of and actually learn something

[@monseigneur6365]

I love passing the more so much

[@elijahbemah9798]

Hello my name is future and I play for monument academy bulldogs basketball and I was just wondering how do I keep a jump-shot that I like or that I can make shots with?

[@backofdaboatyaya5301]

When you make an insane pass but your teammate sells.

[@DesmondAMJackson]

A very serious question, could 2k theoretically help you become a better floor general?

[@aruvol1]

yes

[@thacryinggame]

Yep it did me

[@zzzz17563]

ian gon like i need help idk if i should keep playing ball it’s like i just play it just because i wanna be good i don’t have fun when i play it anymore it feels like it’s a chore what should i do?

[@thacryinggame]

Best advice is to have fun

[@allstardog2392]

Whenever I drive to the rim I forget to look up and force a shot

[@HistoryOfEnergy]

What’s always helped me is: 1) always look downcourt after a rebound or outlet 2) lead your teammates to open spots with passes 3) know where your teammates like to catch the ball, not every assist has to be a dime, it can just be a good solid swing to a shooter, or a good feed to a big man

[@Jaredbballin]

What if your 12years old and nobody lets you play with them even though i can score on them

[@thacryinggame]

Challenge them to a 1v1 and win.

[@Jaredbballin]
