Train Your Decision Making to Play Better In GAMES

Of course there is time to work on our game with no defense and by ourselves, but decision making is arguably the most important skill in basketball. Check out how I apply this into my training and help players develop instincts for the game.

Most of my workouts is by my damn self man, then I get the real practice in my pickups... I need a consistent workout partner

I’m 13 and for me you the number one underrated yt basketball coach, you have the best knowledge on this platform helped my game so much, I’m most definitely going to train with you every single day this summer before hs.

Very important stuff, from the start of my Basketball journey I've trained alone or with one person. We didn't get much game time just because basketball is a niche sport in my country. When I turned 20 I made it to the 3LM (which is like D3 equivalent). There I found myself having BIG trouble translating my skillset to actual games, even though I could kill these guys 1v1 I was averaging like 5pts a game. 

Actual knowledge of WHEN to do WHAT is the key to success in 5 vs 5. 
That includes onball, offball AND defense.

"How many decisions will i take today?". Love it. I need to make more decisions during my workouts and pick-up games so i can achieve some live experience. Then it becomes more easier not to overthink and play intuitive and creative + effortless at the same time. Appreciate it!

I dont have a partner, so I had to learn this the hard way, what I do is I try to imagine I am playing a game and just make plays at game speed, imagining there is someone guarding me, it helps. Also, watch a lot of film, paying attention to detail (👀), when you understand basketball and know about it, you learn a lot about which decisions to make and when

" You are learning how to do stuff, but not when." bro, my brain just expanded.

When I am in a real game, suppose a 3x3, a teammate passes to me... then I just freeze. I do not know what to do when there is a person in front of me instead of thin air. While you are playing alone, you don`t really have to worry if the defender cuts you off or boxes you up etc., it is just one straight lane to the bucket, easy. But when there is a defender right up to my face, I freeze because I have never trained this way, it has always been wide open shots and drive to the basket, so in simpler terms I have never "thought" what I did. But when you said " You are learning how to do stuff, but not when." that was an epiphany, because all I was doing was sharpening my knife but didn`t know what situations and circumstances it is used for. Basketball feels more like a chess game, you read, you make a move, they react, you read, then you make a decision... Decision?.... That`s this VIDEO!!! wow, really much thanks bro, keep doing what you are doing. This is a treasure of a knowledge yet to be utilized to its peak potential. This video pretty much explained why I got smoked by some middle aged men today. haha. greetings from Mongolia!

Great tips, and one of my favorite aspects of the game. Studying the game, breakin’ it down, and gettin’ creative. 👍🏼

"if you only training by yourself against the air- you will learn HOW to do something, but not WHEN."

[primojimmo]

Great content, it really helps! If you could make a video on how to watch game footage that would be really helpful.

[devanshpavdighada]

Can we get the old fashioned player break downs again? Just a dope beat and DIMES! 😌💯

I used to over think but I started going by the rule of doing the first thought
