They can also test for EQ — Emotional Q. But with Boston owning the fourth-best record in the Eastern Conference, it would be hard to justify allowing the storied franchise to have three All-Stars. He didn’t have a bad year at Cal by any means. Mostly, modeling the correct way to do things, and independent practice to mastery. It makes it so obvious that you’re trying to draw even more attention to your posts.I said it’s far fetched that he had poor basketball IQ because he don’t typically fit the typical low basketball IQ players. That latter skill could speak to Ainge having a higher basketball IQ than Brown; having spent four seasons in college where Brown was a one-and-done, it’s possible that Ainge’s collegiate career played a major part in him entering league with a higher basketball IQ. He’s got the tools to be, but he’s prone to lapses. That to me, means his bball IQ isn’t developed as much as it could be at an early age. His flaws are really easy to spot, but there’s plenty to work with and no reason to think he can’t at least become a decent shooter. With the And as a consolation prize, The Undefeated would love to offer our esteemed list of snubs one of our black-and-yellow dad hats, fly hoodies and a pair of cool socks to wear during a vacation, one we hope is in a location a lot warmer than frigid Chicago.Bradley Beal of the Washington Wizards reacts after a basket by the Atlanta Hawks in the second half at State Farm Arena on Jan. 26 in Atlanta.Bradley Beal not being named an All-Star is somewhat surprising considering he is the league’s sixth-leading scorer at 28.6 points per game.

He’s got the tools to be, but he’s prone to lapses. Questionable basketball IQ.

Jaylen Brown don’t fit that mode in low IQ. So… you gotta get guys with a good personality — OR guys with a personality you can deal with.Specific SKILLS are somewhat unrelated, but teachable (guessing). He makes up his mind to drive regardless of how the defense is lined up. I could go on.I want to like him as a prospect bc he has just about every physical tool you would want for a wing, plus I gave him the benefit of the doubt bc he’s supposedly a smart kid off the floor, but that doesn’t always translate to decision making on your feet (just look at Brandon Knight). He puts on blinders in transition too. Washington Wizards guard Bradley Beal (right) drives against Phoenix Suns guard Devin Booker (left) during a game on Nov. 19, 2019, at Talking Stick Resort Arena in Phoenix. They NEED to develop a test for Basketball IQ. From AAU to college, even when he played for Team USA I thought he was the worst looking wing on the team bc he looked he had no idea how to function when playing with talent. Watching him play in different formats, from aau, team usa to college, I noticed that he clearly struggles with decision making to the point where I found it disconcerting and very off-putting. Because of that I think he’s major project with big bust potential.And why the hell did this need its own thread? He’s a slasher/scorer. Surround him with better shooters and I guarantee he’d still make piss poor decisions.I think it’s stupid and unnecessary when people make completely seperate threads to address posts.

Cal’s lack of spacing wasn’t other guys not being good shooters. If you look at players w/ low IQ, you look at Michael Beasley, Nick Young, JaVale McGee, and players like that. There’s a lot to like with him. He makes up his mind to drive regardless of how the defense is lined up. I’m saying it would not have mattered. If he goes later top 10 he won’t have so much hype surrounding him and can be given time to find his feet in the NBA.

Derozan isn’t leaving but it still acts as insurance and Terrence Ross is on a trade friendly 10-mil per year contract. No, his mental shortcomings go beyond the scope of natural growing pains. You’re not new to this.
