This highkey career saving advice for young hoopers. What helped me the most was lowkey watching lowlights/fails of NBA players/people I look up to to help me realise (like your last point) that it's okay to fail and everyone does it. Fire vid as always bro keep up the grind 🔥

[@JD-ny3vz]

Reappraising your nerves is part of a concept called cognitive restructuring where your not changing how or stopping how you feel about something but changing the way your perceiving the experience. It's extremely powerful

[@nickchoi3250]

I really think Kobe's playoff clutch time air balls in his early career made him a much better player than without them. Don't be afraid of failure. It will only make you stronger as far as you learn something from it.

[@ByAnyMeansBasketball]

That’s a fact!!

[@ch0s3n.1]

Real talk

[@81zach]

the timing is crazyyy needed this ty

[@freshprince4508]

Fr just got finished a horrible workout

[@acepiston5552]

Lack of confidence definitely used to apply to me. Not to say there aren’t things to improve confidence wise, but your training programs and philosophies have really helped me develop a better mindset about how to train. Through just playing so much more live basketball my instincts have taken off.

[@maskedky]

God bless you coach. You're literally a God sent. Ik I speak for everyone when I say that. The mental vids are so huge bc basketball is more mental than it is physical

[@ByAnyMeansBasketball]

Means so much 🙌🏻

[@3PointsAtATime]

Definitely speaks for me

[@ByAnyMeansBasketball]

Have you struggled with confidence? What are your biggest struggles?

[@Ts1.2.3]

can u do a video about how to stay out of foul trouble? i lost my first game this season cause the refs were calling every bit of contact on me and i only played 12 minutes so my team lost

[@3AST.]

i always hesitate before i shoot coz i think im a bad shooter no matter how many times I train myself

[@nicoletelada5067]

My mind is full of what if I trained everyday but my confidence is low 🥺

[@OmarEL-MAHDY]

@@3AST. get comfortable with failure, if you didn’t make the shot then you learnt something from it

[@sofreshsocleannnn]

I struggle at being confident to create my own shots I keep deferring to my teammates altho I have the skills to create my own shots I js get nervous in games

[@phoenixmvp3869]

Thank you for making this video I fail at making my HS basketball team 5 times one in freshman year and 2 twice at junior and senior year but I’m going to continue the grind. Thank you.

[@jonathan.kasweka]

That second tool is BIG for me ! Knowing who you are is key !

[@DodgeYtC]

I got in my first basketball team 2 days ago and my first game is gonna be tomorrow. This video really helped me to calm myself because I always feel nervous when I play with other people even if they're younger than me and this also helped me with my mindset that when I miss I always tell myself that I'm bad and just pass the ball next time because I'm afraid of what will other people say about me. I just realize something while I was watching this video, when I practice alone I usually have a lot of confidence and even if I miss I always reflect on my mistakes and do better.

[@jordanbanks2042]

pops always told me "if you nervous act like your not" which means u communicate more and have a dog mentality within the game the nerves will go away simple💪🏾

[@Kayo.do.the.mosttt]

People keep telling me I’ve seen you play you got this but you’re scared or “confidence bro” so I need to work on this …..great way to start 2023

[@tyresehill9954]

I was such a bad mood being 20 not having the time to play this year it really made me sad and to hear that I can still go after it as 21 22 year old puts me in good spirits that I can still try to play next year

[@Slimbrodie67]

29 years old I've been going through this for a month now. Feels like I'm losing my dawg mentally on the court. Not giving up at all resilience and hard work.

[@cetera.1778]

These are things I internally know. But it's always good to have a reminder. Good vid

[@HeyitsAW]

Great video!! Definitely trying to build my confidence driving to the hoop more, and not making mistakes, but also balancing the fear of making mistakes when playing in games. Tough balance but this video really helped

[@ripcity6810]

Appreciate the advice man. You help us hoopers more than you know

[@UB2448]

Appreciate this video so much, needed this for not only basketball but Life in general

[@martinjimenez1514]

Thank you so much bro, i've been having a couple of bad games and was quite down, I really needed this

[@ByAnyMeansBasketball]

I’m glad it helped!! Don’t let those games get to you

[@dpskiiii]

Been watching you for a while and didn't even notice you went to SJC. I'm a freshman at DeMatha and I have a tryout tommorrow and because of your video I will make the team.

[@Liamdballer]

Hey Man, I have been watching this video a couple of times this year and find these tips very helpful and yes I struggle through confidence. I work Harder than anyone on my team I promise you I come home from school and do a shooting and a 30 min handle workout every day but i still am doing bad in my games I feel like I should be cooking but I'm not even getting 4 point on average. I felll like I should start but I ant even the 6th or 7th man. I am 5 3 and would love for some feed back. Thanks

[@franklu8580]

These apply to life, not just the game. Good stuff 👍🏼

[@angusg3605]

best video you have ever made bro so many people needed this ! Keep it up one of the top 3 best trainers in the world

[@ByAnyMeansBasketball]

Preciate that a lot man! Glad you enjoyed it ✊🏻

[@hugoantunesartwithblender]

Thank you so much. This video is priceless. The persp3ctive one is a big one and i strangly realizedbit alone. For some reason i got 3 "bad" games. My confidence was shattered. Then i tought "i could just stop playing and do another thing" Yes, it was almost giving up but no, i realized that all that failling and mates screaming didnt matter that much and my game clearly improved after that

[@hyunishy]

I need this fr, I can only play alone

[@ThanoseTheOneAndOnly]

Ngl bro you gonna be an nba trainer real soon 💪🏾

[@ciaranmckenzie1595]

[@arnelezy8831]

[@marksark21]

Bro i needed this!!😢

[@asmith1393]

I've found that talking yourself up and trash talking opponents is a quick easy fix to get your confidence up during games.

[@jeovaroharelt7579]

thank you for your tips bro! I really appreciate that

[@arnaudfg]

Yoo this channel has helped me so much💥💥

[@Erickdav15]

Much needed

[@dailocruz9481]

the lack of confidence of mine ruined my capablities hope i improve it w ur help

[@CrispFNYT]

Thank you man 💙

[@chrispaul7849]

as a coach of 50 years now, I talk to my players about gaining confidence all the time, this was fabulous, thanks, Coach!!! PS replacing "excitement" with for "being nervous" is genius... I always tell my players that if you are a little jittery before a state championship game that it means you care and it will wear off after 30 seconds. That always seemed to settle them. Thanks again!

[@danielakintola8000]

The secret to becoming the most confident person on the court is to chew gum while playing....it works magic

[@Ecclesiarchy.official]

Pov: you try this then choke and die 🤭💀

[@CX_vik]

Definitely, this actually does help me hit my shots somehow😅

[@syloentertainment1100]

I’m a brilliant defender but I’m uhhh not great on offense, so I kinda need to get confident or else I won’t call for the ball meaning I won’t get to improve or even do the parts of offense I’m good at, aka passing

[@VVM3368]

goated ah youtuber

[@yofloat7]

my last game I had 0 points I was like 0/3 and I just felt like I was terrible and it even makes it worse when ur teammates mock you

[@lungik9908]

Loved this video s/o

[@nhn8248]

Idk why but when I get into games all my shots are short like at practice I don’t rly miss does anyone have any solutions

[@Babysoup1]

I’m not sure but my problem usually is whenever I get into a game I resort to bad habits and forget to use my legs which leads to me chucking bad shots up. I’m currently just trying to shoot as much as possible to make it muscle memory but you could be different from me

[@oshinoshnobu5027]

Goddamn, I think I am pretty good at basketball to some extent but when I play with strangers it's like I just started basketball but when I play with my friends at school I am preet good giv me some advice 😭😭
