The Point Guard's ULTIMATE Guide to Basketball IQ (Part 1)

IQ makes good, long-lasting players. When a player understands the game, all of its patterns, and the minute details behind it all, their potential increases exponentially... that's what I want you to get out of this!

Love how you don't limit the videos to nba only It's great to see other situations and how different players with different builds react to stuff we'd normally see a regular nba player relying only on athleticism

[@ByAnyMeansBasketball]

1000%! NBA isn’t applicable for many people tbh

[@jcravidaz]

@@ByAnyMeansBasketball i feel like international film studies translate the best for most people, since thats the ideal playstyle for most coaches that arent at a pro or even college level

[@LeLegoat]

nba still better

[@jasonpierce2024]

​@LeLegoat 15 years ago maybe, today's game is cheeks

[@ham.burger69]

@@jasonpierce2024its not cheeks its just become lazy and people just rely on build power and athleticism

Will you be doing a series like this for every position (after finishing the point guard series)? This is helpful as a guard but I also want to know my personnel’s tendencies and what they’re expected to do, as I believe that would take my IQ to the next level. 🙏

[@cantguardxotic]

Agreed.

[@dawgo5535]

Hes likely to be doing this a series for every position We gotta stay tuned

[@bukkyreacts9829]

Bro just saved my career😃

[@verify_dee]

this is the gem we’ve all been waiting for

[@loo747a]

I've been really struggling with my court vision and its my main weakness. Your video really helped. Thanks!

[@Basketball_Highlights39]

thanks, a lot I need this video because I'm switching from center to point guard for high school next year. I'm 6 foot 1 and people at my junior high see me as a big man

[@ozfit_]

Really dropping gems, incredibly good stuff !!

[@ByAnyMeansBasketball]

Thank you bro!!

[@kevinhayden9030]

Been waiting on this.

[@randymclellan8004]

Wow. Dude your content is SO helpful! Thank you for breaking down some of these patterns

[@ByAnyMeansBasketball]

Absolutely!! Glad it helps

[@cantguardxotic]

@@ByAnyMeansBasketballCan you please do other positions after this? Sg, Sf, Pf, and center. Then again a pf could be a point foward. sf could be a wing or a lock.

[@crablord7934]

I need to learn how to spot hockey assists more, I can make quick home run reads pretty consistently but often times I stall out advantages because they aren't completely open on the first beat.

[@SD-wi2gy]

Can't wait for part 2

Thanks for the video 🔥

[@benjaminsimpungwe5117]

Watched this video when it dropped . Recently had a terrible game as PG and immediately came to rewatch. The first the thing Cole said was my biggest mistake

[@ryry4589]

Thanks for the tips

Love how you showd arturs zagars from latvia. Hes a true pg

[@ByAnyMeansBasketball]

He’s amazing!

[@ksenonscentral1187]

Man, warms my heart to see Crvena Zvezda being literally a half of the video 😂😂😂

[@Kyriesnumber1fan]

what would you say is the most important skill to work on as a 15 yr old pg looking to play overseas?

[@Sarraqin]

Not sure Teodosic is a great example for basketball IQ. His passing skills are undeniable and his reads have indeed gotten better in the latter part of his career, but for a great period of time he was notorious for not understanding momentum and pace, and also making hot-headed decisions in crucial moments. 2012 Euroleague final is the prime example, CSKA were +13 at the end of Q3 and Olympiacos managed to snatch it at the buzzer, Teodosic making ill-advised choices all the way (3 AST/5 TOs). 2013 Euroleague semi final, he goes 1/9 from the field, 1 AST in 29 minutes. 2015 Euroleague semi final, again they squander a late +9 lead to Olympiacos, Teodosic goes 2/9 FG, 6 TOs. He has routinely been the PG you don't want to have run your team.

[@bryangantala6987]

[@dayibbm1]

nah fr 😂 nobody cutting it’s got to the point where someone sets me a screen and doesn’t even cut to the basket

[@BoopBoop508]

Low skill but ur best chance is honestly finding a church with a basketball court and playing with those guys. Church hoopers play basketball and not just pick up street ball

Try new things while u play. Only way to do is to do it

[@chadalferez]

[@firasalzharani4328]

I had a hard time understanding the terminology used... Any tips on that?

[@chadalferez]

like what specific word?

[@firasalzharani4328]

@@chadalferez Words like 'kickout' or 'cut'... etc. I know what these words mean now, but there are plenty of other basketball terms that went over my head because you see I'm still kinda new to the basketball world

[@dandrespruill1165]

If you noticed any nba point guard, they are known for (play calling). These russian nba players are quick. A nba point guard plays are: (pick & roll), (screen), (fake move), and (control). An example of an nba control, is similar to an nfl quarterback (slide/dive/spike) in game. The control move is used in the nba, like going out of bounds and losing control of the ball. A nba point guard makes plays! reply
