The Simple Way To Enter "The Zone" In Basketball

[@zuko2000]

The lessons you've shared doesn't only apply to basketball but also in other professions. I'm studying for my CPA licensure exam. And, this meditative exercise helps me improve my performance in studying. Salute to you, such an underrated channel.

I feel like the zone is knowing that you really gave it all you had in your training and internalising that energy into your focus finally expressing it against a slightly better or similar in skill opponent

[@moniemademe8507]

No

[@Younghoulhead]

you’ll never be on my level anyway

[@Lukedaniel805]

This perspective is relatable fr. When I'm feeling like that, I'm not consciously doubting everything I'm able to just let it be there and fully accept the true moment.

[@rayanfahs2165]

I feel like mastering the zone is like being able to tap into an unstoppable rhythm while playing. Great vid😊

This was great 👍🏿 👏🏿

Ty for this vid this has helped me alot

[@Thatboygtmike]

This just helped a lot.. I always wonder though when are the times we use our thoughts to increase performance/create in general ? Or is it more about focusing thoughts ?

[@DeepGameBasketball]

One example of using thought intentionally to increase performance would be the "manta" we mention in today's episode. Just keep in mind that it's a very quick, strategic thought -- not a running mental dialogue, which inevitably will pull our attention away and hurt performance. So if a quick, intentional thought (ie. the "back to the game" mantra") helps to sharpen your attention, it can be valuable.

@@DeepGameBasketball ahh okay. Now that makes sense. Much appreciated as always

[@akshaanbora2840]

Hey I've been watching your videos for a while but I'm trying to be the best basketball player I can be. The struggle I have is being able to wake up early in the morning to go train before school. How do I take that first step or make it easier so I can start my grind?

[@Younghoulhead]

You have to sacrifice something in order to commit more say video games

hey coach, i just failed my tryouts for summer basketball, and i feel like i was worthy to play on the team, but when tryouts came around, i didn’t play as good as i should, even tho i kept a positive mindset after i missed like 15 shots in a row. anyways, i just feel like i didn’t deserve it, but deep down i know im good enough. why do i keep freezing up?

[@DeepGameBasketball]

Have you watched the DeepGame masterclass at DeepGameBasketball.com, yet? It will probably help you get started in answering this question. Let me know if that helps clear things up for you - Simon, Team DeepGame

I got into the zone for the first time when I was playing with my friend who's better than me

[@malydus1439]

I have great skills and can shoot very well but i dont get that much playing time beacuse i make the wrong decisions and dont follow the coaches plays. How do I fix it?

[@Azilena4]

Just take the shot and make it the more you make the more you play. No need to make decisions just take shots you know you can make.

[@DeepGameBasketball]

It sounds like more real-game experience will help you convert your skills into game performance. Try adding more scrimmaging and pickup games to your training, and see how things shift for you.

[@malydus1439]

@@DeepGameBasketball does 1v1 help?

[@DeepGameBasketball]

@@malydus1439 It does, but incorporate 3v3 or 5v5 for best results. My advice is just to play and expose yourself to real game situations as much as possible, and be patient with giving yourself time to improve.

[@nikkolecatron8600]

are you saying that you can't thieck abate the past

[@DeepGameBasketball]

Of course you can; but while you're playing, it will slow you down and prevent you from performing at your best in most cases - Simon, Taylor's support team

[@joachim7]

Back to the game thoughts are irrelevant in the game. Your thoughts never scored a point.

[@DeepGameBasketball]

That thought won't score a point on its own. But for some people, it will help them remember to get back into the present - Simon, Team DeepGame
