I Get Paid For Having a High Basketball IQ - How You Can Too!
Вставка
- Опубліковано 16 бер 2024
- You don't have to be the fastest or most athletic basketball player to make it to the next level. However, if you do have those physical shortcomings, your skill and IQ are going to have to be elite. In this video I break down my own film as a professional player in Finland to show you what a high basketball IQ actually looks like, and how you can implement it into your own game.
Let me know in the comments if you think you have a high IQ, or if it is something you need to work on!

Cp3, jokic, and Luka are some really good examples too
100% agree, some of the best.
*old CP3.
Young CP3 was very athletic.
True, but didn't really use that athleticism in the NBA quite as much.
Lmao Prime cp3 was athletic don't sleep lightning quick first step goin right
Yh other than cp3 who was athletic in terms of his quickness Jokic and Luka are 6'7+
A shot fake on the first step of a layup is called a ‘Pinoy step,’ as it originated from the Philippine players (Filipino=Pinoy). I only learned about this a couple weeks ago; it’s such a great move to get that defender to jump or at least rise up and then you have a clear path on your second step.
I watch a lot of basketball knowledge/training content and you make great videos, Tucker. Lots of people obviously appreciate them a lot. Great job.
Yes! That is what a lot of people call it especially over here in Europe. Has really been a cool move for me to try out in games. And thank you for the support!
Your videos help build my game so much! Thanks!
You're welcome, keep working!
Your content is super helpful, even for me-- a nearly 40yo who gotten back into basketball after many years.
Very cool! I don't think I'll ever give the game up, even after I'm done playing overseas.
@@TuckerRichardsonYeah, I wish I hadn't stepped away, but there were many deterrents (multiple serious illnesses, no BB team at my tiny high school or tiny college), but I'm a better player now than I've ever.
Ah I see. Makes me happy you are still enjoying the game!
My team will definitely need this thank you so much
You're welcome, glad to help!
The move in 1:50 is called the “Pinoy Step”
It’s a move that was popularized in the Philippines
Yes!
Hey tuck, my season just finished, we ended up losing the championship game by 16 points. I think we would have won, but we only had 6 players and 2 fouled out before the end of the 3rd qrt and i was still nearly able to carry the team, but then they started leaving a player under the basket and throwing outlet passes to him.
Moving on from that, i want to thank you for helping me to progress in my confidence and even my iq although i was already a high iq player. I wouldn't have had the season i did if it wasn't for you, so thanks.
Always hurts to lose in those big moments, but sounds like your team fought as hard as they could. I'm super proud of your growth this season! Now it is time to make that next jump in the off-season and come back next year a brand new player.!
@@TuckerRichardson Yeah that's the goal man. hopefully your your playoff push goes better than ours
Hope so too, we have struggled a bit recently, so time to get back on track before playoffs!
This man made me realize that i lack iq thats why im watching this now. Hope you succeed and make more of this man.🙌
I'm glad that this made you realize it, hopefully you can begin to increase your IQ!
I hqve Dreams to play at professional basketball, but i wwnt to say thank you that always give me those advice and help me reach my dream🙏
That is a great dream to have. Keep chasing it!
Im only 14 so i still got a life ahead and i am already athletic, but I'll still apply these things to my game cuz these are really good tips. Thx!
Yes, I think they can really help any player!
Thank you for the useful tips and information, trying to grow my basketball dream and this helps!
I'm glad to help! Keep up the good work.
Your videos helped me a lot tbh you're a hidden gem man keep it up💪💪
Thank you, that's what I'm trying to do!
Appreciate for this content! This got me from not getting playing time to starting for my AAU team!
That is what I like to hear!
Thanks for the videos, I’ve watched every one of them and this channel has helped me a lot, please keep em coming. Good luck on your pro season man, keep hooping!
Glad to help. And thank you, I will!
You and your videos are helping motivate me to improve my game in the right way. Thanks man!
God bless ✌️
Let's go, keep working!
Very good video. Overall this channel has a very high level of content. I’ve been trying to diversify my game more in terms of making the game easier (more focused on hitting shots, attacking closeouts, cuts, and defense) and this video helped me get more educated on that.
That is great to hear. I think you are working on the right things.
Best content for us young hoopers. You helped me so much man
Thank you! That is the goal.
love too wake up to a W tucker video
I gotchu!
Seriously great video. Keep it up
Thank you! Will do.
This guy has helped out with so many of my challenges and I just cant thank him enough you really deserve more exposure
Thank you! Glad I could be of some help.
I should really be keeping this stuff in mind. This will help me with my training a lot because this past high school season i had, I was starting on my team and was doing really well and the previous year i barely had any playtime at all. My current training has helped me a lot in my journey and videos like these about basketball IQ will really help me get to the next level. Thank you for this video.
I think they will help as well. It is great you are pushing yourself to get to that next level!
Excellent video! Didn’t I say your channel would blow up! 🤯🤯🤯!!! Keep going every day! Blessings to your channel and there’s always more!
Haha thank you I appreciate it! 😂 That is the goal, just keep trying to get better every day!
@@TuckerRichardson it’s always love!
Thank you so much, your vids are so helpful. I am always the shortest guy on the court as a 13 year old but my biggest strengths are shooting and basketball Iq it all started with watching a ton of UA-cam, like you... Thank you so much!
That is awesome! You are a learner, which is great. Continue to do that and it will help in the long run.
This might be the best basketball video in the internet.
Wow, I appreciate it!!
Great video. I have dreams to play professionally and your content helped a lot! Hi from Slovenia
Keep pursuing those dreams. Moi from Finland!
Great Stuff!
Thank you!
Great insights thanks!
Thank you! Glad to help!
This is gold bro
Appreciate it!
Thanks bro luv the facts!
I gotchu!
Hey tucker I used to go to the Colgate summer camps when I was a kid so it’s cool to see you doing well now
Thank you my guy!
I think one thing that goes on the high IQ level for players to get open are off ball screens. Not just for the guy getting the screens but a player setting a back screen forcing his defender to guard the back door but while the guys primary defender is having to recover and the screen setter getting himself open for a shot after that
100% Knowing how to set screens effectively is such an underrated skill, especially as you get to the higher levels of the game.
Awesome stuff! Shared your basketball knowledge with my 14 year old son! Your stuff is solid! Thanks for sharing your thoughts!
That is awesome! Tell your son to keep working!
This is random, but I do hope our paths cross one day. 🙏
It is possible!
Fantastic video with great tips! I want to have a professional career as a Player or Coach. Hej from Sweden! 🙏🏽
Thank you! I wish you the best of luck on your journey. Moi!
Great advice ❤✊
Thank you!
Your content is getting better, would love to see you collab with someone like Thinking Basketball or Coach Daniel
That would be like a dream come true one day!
does your team know about your channel lol? great vid btw i love them and there rlly entertaining and encouraging
Yes! Everyone knows haha would have been hard to hide it at this point.
@@TuckerRichardson haha cool what do they think of it?
As a 32 year old veteran who aspires to play in my city’s amateur league, I loved all this nuggets of wisdom!
Thank you! Best of luck on your journey!
I just got an itch to learn a lot and possibly coach, I want to play with my son as he grows up and know enough to pass on that information. Hopefully by the time he is old enough I can teach his friends as well so a group can go through school together.
That is great, I think there is so much knowledge all over the internet, if you really wanted to you could learn the game and succeed in that goal.
Great video. I'm 32 and have been training for 10 years, will be going to the g league tryouts. Right now I'm on week 18 of a strict lifting program, where I've gained about 15 lbs since the new year. I shot 200 makes today, 300 makes yesterday in "feels like -17 degrees Celsius" weather according to a weather app lol.
It was actually only -2, but the wind chill was bad. I figure dealing with the elements will make my mentality more iron indoors. I have to calculate for the wind on certain shots.
I also study at least 2 or 3 offensive systems per day and draw out the plays so that it is second nature to me. I've coached university men & women, the kids who came up after me in my old college. A few game winners on the record too.
G League tryouts are in September. Look out! If I don't make it, no worries, plenty of other places I can hoop. But my sights are set, and I think I have a strong chance given the work I've put in.
Wow, you seem to have it figured out! Keep up the great work!
Good luck!
Sounds like everything I learned at PGC
Is that point guard college? I heard that's a good camp.
A game this year I told my players I don’t want to ball dribbled over half court it needs to be passed over and it worked
Way better and the ball
Movement got the defence out of position because they weren’t.
This is a cool idea, push the tempo, get them playing at a better pace.
Cuts are my favourite go to move in offence
The best way to get easy points!
So close to 20 thousand subs
We are getting there!
Hey there I was wondering if you could do a basketball iq quiz like when someone’s guarding you when to do a certain move for example?
Yeah, I have done that in a few of my videos, but not in that exact context. That is a great idea!
Baseball pass was a dime!!!
Yessir haha gotta trust it.
🔥🔥
The great John Stockton was master of the slow down with Karl Malone. 80% mental and 20% physical!
Very good example!
@@TuckerRichardson Luka, Jokic, and Shai Gilgeous are dominating with this style of play. Lebron is also still playing great because of his iq. Great video!!
Can you make a video about strength training
Will look into this...
What team you played in finland. I just ask because i live in pori. It's in western finland. And hey good video i like it
Thank you! I play for BC Nokia!
This only works if your strong enough to bully defenders. You still have to be athletic to win at basketball, it's just that speed and jumping ability isn't the only type of athleticism that counts.
I see what you are saying, there are other types of athleticism than jumping. But in general, I think that is what we think of when we think of athletic basketball players.
Could you do a shooting workout
I do shooting workouts everday...kidding, I know what you mean. I might show one, but also there are so many great shooting workout videos all over UA-cam you should check out.
Do you have any tips on what i need to focus on if i want to change position from big man to foward because im way to undersized to play big
My tip is to go from big man to guard. Work on your guard skills, no matter what your height is. Develop your outside shot especially if you want to play at the next level!
@@TuckerRichardson appreciate you bro
I also dream of playing professional basketball in the wnba. But its sometimes discouraging cus im in a different country.
Well, the good thing is the game is expanding worldwide faster than ever. There are so many international players playing in America now, so it is definitely possible.
What is the key of having a strong move and finishing strong ?
I feel weak when a drive the basket
I think initiating contact on your drives could help. Not pushing off or anything, but get into the body of the defender. Don't shy away from contact on your drives!
I actually have a pretty high iq not like my teammates who think only shooting the ball will help them one kid just shoots like he Kobe but he not and I make the good reads and now I also get more shots in practice and sometimes games
That is great to hear. Make sure you are still aggressive looking for your own shot though. It is good to set up teammates, but you also need to look for your own shot!
@@TuckerRichardson ya I know I am always open and call for pass but my teammates sometimes just don’t past to me but thanks for the advice you helped me so much I have watched a lot of your vids
I like to call ourselves crafty. We tuff
😂 Agreed
Hey tucker, I got cut from my 7th,8th and freshman team. I don't know if I should keep going
If you love the game, you should keep going. You are still young and have so much time for improvement. So many high level players have gone through what you are going through!
@@TuckerRichardson thank you so much that really means a lot, i have been grinding and training so hard and i have been improving each tryout i have been to, i didnt know that high level players are went through what i am going through. i will keep going
i just came from a 4 team 5x5 tournament got 3rd place, sprained my ankle at the beggining of the 2nd game (for 3rd place) but still playes no matter what and i have won the mvp, but i still need to work on my mind cuz i was really stressed during the first game any tips from a pro player? (i lost in the previous tournament where i was the best player and the favourite) just maybe tryna to remind you cuz you also responded to that comment, thanks
Hmmmm, were you stressed about thinking you might lose or your own performance? I would say for either one, just putting it in perspective and realizing at your age winning and losing doesn't matter. All that really matters is growth and if you learn from the performance you had. So if you don't play well, figuring out why is important. If you approach it like that you will be less anxious about playing badly because it is just a learning experience.
@@TuckerRichardson i just dont know, i was chill before the game and when i stepped on the field i got super stressed, maybe it was just a lack of experience because it was my 2nd basketball tournament/ game worth anything
Herb jones is great at the stampede
Good eye!
👏
👍🏻
“Grab and peak!!”
There you go!
it was at 1k likes and then 1.1k when I liked it!!
Let's go!!
Finland is cold asf. Also what’s your salary?
It is really cold, maybe will do a salary reveal sometime soon👀
All you need is hustle and IQ.. thats why Bird was MVP three yrs in a row
Those are both incredibly important, but I would also be clear that Larry Bird was an incredibly skilled basketball player.
@@TuckerRichardson 1000% agree, he's my GOAT!
I'm obsessed with basketball. I mean it's my passion. I'm a female hooper. I play as a point guard, and I'm the best on my team. My last game I scored 10 out of my teams 12 points. But my team sucks. I feel like I can't get better. We've only one 2 out of the 10 games so far. Do you have any advice to help me in any way. It would help a lot.
It sounds like you are still young and have a lot of time to grow and keep improving. As you get older and get to higher levels, you will play with better players, but for now, focus on making your own game better.
@@TuckerRichardsonThanks a lot! I love your channel. I’ll make sure to keep on working on my own game. And trying hard to train and learn from my mistakes. Thanks for the advice! I’ll keep on watching and learning from your channel!
Hi i got a game in a couple of hours any advice for increasing confidence and how to get more points?
Be really aggressive. Don't worry about makes and misses, and get out in transition to get easy buckets!
@@TuckerRichardson bet.
@@TuckerRichardson thanks
@@TuckerRichardson thanks i got 16pts 6 boards and 4steals
been playing ball my whole life and at 15 a coach told me to tryout for rep. is just starting playing at a highlevel at 15 to late?
I don't think so. You will obviously have to put in a lot of work, but a lot of kids find that game at a later stage!
love fam. maybe next time you see my name ill be in a pro league@@TuckerRichardson
how tall were you in highscool im 6,0 in grade 10 so i dont know if im undersized
I was about 5' 10" coming into high school and then grew to about 6' 3" my 10th grade year. You are still young so have time to grow, but also so many players have made it to the next level at the size you are now!
Is it possible to play at high levels being 5,9 tall?
Yes, for sure! At my division 1 school I played with a few guys your size. Height isn't everything!
How can we watch your games
Unfortunately they stream on this platform called Ruutu which is only available in Finland 😕
W
👍🏻
Where did podz go
Did you like Podz better? Be honest😂
I think thats the "pinoy step" youre talking bout 2:00
Yes it is.
I just found out about it maybe a month ago it's a filthy move 💯
So tough! I use it often.@@brandonlogan2600
Yo is Colgate winning in the first round?
I think this might be the year...
3:05 travel
Don't know about that, but certainly one at 1:14
I'm not the most athletic, and I do really well when playing slow and in control, but my coach doesn't like it too much, should I keep playing slow, or speed my game up?
Hmmm...why doesn't he want you to play slow and in control?
@@TuckerRichardson I really don't know, he just wants me to speed up my game in general
