Is it??..I think that's only if you can't shoot..yeah it's somewhat harder to focus on the rim, but muscle memory kicks in and then vision is certainly secondary
@@raveriv8981 in my opinion, the depth perception changes and if you’re not used to playing in open arenas there is a difference at first. Takes a sec to get your feel
I really feel dat. I practice shooting every day at my own rim in my backyard, after i while i got a chance to play at an outdoor basketball field, and suddenly my shot just felt weird, the vision is just really weird
Man I started watching these clips when there was nothing but footage and chill music with text, which was good. Then you started with a voice, now you have a face.
Hands down the most underutilized skill that isn’t spoken about enough. This is the EXACT thing that hindered my game the most. Always being able to dribble and finish in practice but in game never being able to do anything. HEAD UP EYES UP! Allows you FOCUS, READ, REACT. We are in our own heads too much instead of letting instinct and hand eye coordination to take over. This is why they say don’t text and drive “if your staring down you can see the road ahead of you”. DEEP! Lol! THANK YOU SOO MUCH FOR EVERYTHING YOU DO! UNDEFEATED!!!!!
You actually killed this. Your attention to detail is on another level. This video is a must for players lacking confidence. Be confident with your eyes, lock in 🙏🏼
This is a great video. The soccer analogy is perfect. This has alway been my weakness in soccer because i cant see whats going on. It actually take serious discipline and practice to get rid of the bad habit. If you do, your game would change drastically
IMO this is facts, when I used to play soccer you constantly have to scan the field and look for the open player and space. When you have the ball using peripheral vision is so key.
Vision is so important. I’m training a kid that has decent individual skills, but looks lost out there in games. It seems like he doesn’t know where he is on the court, hopefully this helps.
This Channel has Taken My Game To a Different Level Even though I don't have time to work on everything Everything I do learn makes me hoop better so thanks
Also looking down as you make a move helps these guys get their footwork and timing right, it’s a good way to gauge distance to the basket without losing vision of the whole floor that happens if you look up at the rim
1. Watch past your defender 2. Lock on the rim early when you finish 3. Scan the floor, take quick glances to create action picture in your mind. 4. Train in live situations.
Your YT channel is underrated! It's really helpful to the hoopers out like Me a lot of information at tips you given are defenetly useful in game anyways Im from here in Philppines and I just wanna let you know that Im a big fan of your's 💯👏 I hope one day you came to visit here
After recording my most recent video, I noticed "damn I am looking at the ground", I was hurt but then I saw Kyrie looking down too and felt better lol Great vid 🔥
Yup even on those set of basketball drill/tip videos MJ did early 2000s he had a segment about defense and explained defenders should be using their peripheral more instead of constantly turning their heads. It works. Keep turning your head and somebody can cut in a split second and score. And in transition that’s why younger Rajon was so spectacular bc in transition sometimes he’d take 1 or 2 looks down the court, get on the break and make the play he saw 3 steps before kind of like the Equalizer
Looking at the floor while dribbling is essential to make quicker actions with the ball. When you dont look at the floor when dribbling in tight areas you dont catch the ball the exact way you want. Theres a good reason best ball handlers in the nba look at the floor, they can catch the ball exactly how they want and pass/shoot quicker off the dribble without the need to correct the position of the hand when catching the ball.
You have any ideas for small sided games that would encourage scanning? I was thinking 3 vs. 3 (or however many ppl), one person with the ball in the backcourt. Before starting, get them to close their eyes, You can place the teammates to their left or right, infront or behind them (change it from Rep to rep), the defenders can be in a position to trap the ball handler, play man-to-man, be trailing, etc (change it from Rep to rep). And give a time limit to score within. Once you start the game, the ball handler opens their eyes and has to scan the floor in order to score within the allotted time.
Known of this for a long time but when in games its hard to do especially when going 1on1 with a defender, tend to get TOs from not knowing where help is
There still is so much more that goes into a drive to the basket or catch and shoot. Most of basketball is using your awareness, reaction/s, timing, communication. There of course is more to that but not everything works all the time, confidence will build your game
Maan i feel like i've always had this problem, even one time i said to a coach of mine "man, i can't see" and he just told my mom i probably needed glasses but it was not that couldnt see, but it just that i feel like i move my eyes way too much in game and don't actually see anything because im not picking up information
what to do if the defender is agresive? I have seen Marcus Smart going for the steal when the hopper it's not commited to the ball, and it's dribbling it loosely
The stamina and awareness requirements made playing center midfield in soccer waaay to hard for me. So much easier to play wing/wing back and I can just have my back to the sideline half the time
@@ByAnyMeansBasketball Because the rim protectors might figure out that I’m trying to finish at the basket early by seeing me look at the rim. But that’s just my opinion
@@KahinAhmed72 Nah I definitely think there is a time and place to delay looking at the rim! Not wrong at all. But I think most times, rim protectors know you're trying to finish by you driving straight at the rim. So locking in on the rim a half second before you jump may not be the worst thing in the world
I have a question I very good in pickup games in neighborhood and it doesn’t transferred to game at all can you tell me what to do to transfer pickup to real games i would be happy
You kinda stole this idea from someone else..I hate when people used to tell me to look up though..I used to average like 10 assists a game and people still used to tell me that..I think they were just trying to bring me down
Rave Riv gotchu. Honestly have no idea who the “short Spanish looking dude is.” I just read a shit ton about eye movement in sports and watched a ton of hoops over the years, and frankly only go on RUclips to post my videos anyways so I have no idea lol

Much needed video because that difference between shooting in a walled gym and an arena is so real!

Always wondered how some guys play-make at such a high level, this definitely is a part of that
people telling me to look up when i dribble... bruh i can see the whole court through my periphrial lol
You know he’s committed to his craft 💯
Who has the best court vision in the league? 👀
Chris Paul
CP3
CP3 no doubt!

I’ve never actually thought about this tbh. Great vid and deep look into what players are doing and thinking, keep up these videos.💪🏽🔥

Solid as vid bro. Very good advice and totally practical. Appreciate how you broke down the phases of the play with corresponding eye activity

BRUH this exactly what i was lookin for. Steph Curry type beat
This why i say your the best basketball channel
"you dont need to use the actual basketball to fake. just use your mouth"
Im tired of my coach telling me to stop looking at the floor(when im clearly trying to read the court and my defender) and look at the goal 24/7
Looking at the floor while dribbling is essential to make quicker actions with the ball. When you dont look at the floor when dribbling in tight areas you dont catch the ball the exact way you want. Theres a good reason best ball handlers in the nba look at the floor, they can catch the ball exactly how they want and pass/shoot quicker off the dribble without the need to correct the position of the hand when catching the ball.
one of your most important videos!
Hey coleman! It's Matis that kid you had a workout with on a Friday... We worked on this in that workout!
I learned so much from your videos, you made me a better player
A lot of my individual game came from playing as a midfielder
Soccer definitely helps with it
This is fcking gold bruh, like priceless info. I enjoyed your video, and insight, your bad arse bud.
Please do a point center breakdown
Do a off arm activation drills
Goat content. What tool do you use to breakdown nba film?

Amazing stuff man
Could you please do a video picking apart Villanova's defense?
Known of this for a long time but when in games its hard to do especially when going 1on1 with a defender, tend to get TOs from not knowing where help is

Peripheral vision is one of the best weapons for basketball, doesn't matter the position you play in.
Great points!
For real, I've been shooting at a hoop that has a wall behind it. The basket feels really far away when I play at a court that has nothing behind it.
So basically treat the court like a driving a car on the road 😂
I'm not that good but I'm always looking to get better and these are a big help bouta go work on this rn
Some keys points to pin point that can go unnoticed while playing.
Nice hair lol
Your videos are so good

EXCELLENT Video! Thank You!
what to do if the defender is agresive?
I have seen Marcus Smart going for the steal when the hopper it's not commited to the ball, and it's dribbling it loosely
At what point would be early enough when looking at the rim, would it be during the pickup or even earlier before that?
Can you drop a video on body moment as like shitfiitng weights and that kinda thing and accerlartions
Good video, thanks for sharing
The stamina and awareness requirements made playing center midfield in soccer waaay to hard for me. So much easier to play wing/wing back and I can just have my back to the sideline half the time
Wow. So I'm not wrong to look at the ground on moves after all. So many people keep saying it's wrong to look down.
Very important thanksss!!!
Thanks , good information
I wouldn’t look at the rim early because the defenders might have an easier time to block you if you’re driving to the rim.
Why? Why wait til the last second?
@@ByAnyMeansBasketball Because the rim protectors might figure out that I’m trying to finish at the basket early by seeing me look at the rim.
But that’s just my opinion

Awesome! Thanks!
I have a question
I very good in pickup games in neighborhood and it doesn’t transferred to game at all can you tell me what to do to transfer pickup to real games i would be happy
Implement real game situations in pick up games because it is usually casual
5 on 5 is a different game
Watch a lot of games and try to learn the game.
My dad told me not to look at the defense but to look up at the rim
I think this is really interesting
Key Note 6:38
Well, actually when you watch the floor, your have vision of ball, defenders, teammates and your current position
Goodness RUBIO 3:40
Oh you lookin tanned tanned coach
5:55
5:22
wow this is tough tough
Idk if you’re keeping your “Pick & Roll” series going but if you are, *D-Wade* might be the best player to study other than CP3 which you did already
Use your sharingan to dominate the game
Didn't know Donte Divincenzo have a youtube channel.
Very interesting
That’s how I play
