How to Score as an Unathletic Hooper (Breaking My OWN Game Down)



After all these years breaking down the greats’ games, I figured I’d take a few minutes to mess around and break my OWN game down. Not only was this just a fun process as I rarely watch my own film, but I think it’s super applicable to a lot of players out there who may not be the most athletic!

  1. Hey coach, can you make video about how to recover mentally form a bad game ? because some hoopers maybe has a bad day and always feels bad about them self afterward or maybe want to quit basketball and I think thats gonna be a good content for the next video…Thank you

  2. “He was despised and rejected— a man of sorrows, acquainted with deepest grief. We turned our backs on him and looked the other way. He was despised, and we did not care. Yet it was our weaknesses he carried; it was our sorrows that weighed him down. And we thought his troubles were a punishment from God, a punishment for his own sins! But he was pierced for our rebellion, crushed for our sins. He was beaten so we could be whole. He was whipped so we could be healed. All of us, like sheep, have strayed away. We have left God’s paths to follow our own. Yet the Lord laid on him the sins of us all. He was oppressed and treated harshly, yet he never said a word. He was led like a lamb to the slaughter. And as a sheep is silent before the shearers, he did not open his mouth. Unjustly condemned, he was led away. No one cared that he died without descendants, that his life was cut short in midstream. But he was struck down for the rebellion of my people. He had done no wrong and had never deceived anyone. But he was buried like a criminal; he was put in a rich man’s grave. But it was the Lord’s good plan to crush him and cause him grief. Yet when his life is made an offering for sin, he will have many descendants. He will enjoy a long life, and the Lord’s good plan will prosper in his hands. When he sees all that is accomplished by his anguish, he will be satisfied. And because of his experience, my righteous servant will make it possible for many to be counted righteous, for he will bear all their sins. I will give him the honors of a victorious soldier, because he exposed himself to death. He was counted among the rebels. He bore the sins of many and interceded for rebels.”
    ‭‭Isaiah‬ ‭53:3-12‬ ‭NLT‬‬
    This was written around 700 years before Jesus came into the earth, yet it describes His life perfectly.
    "For God so loved the world, that He gave His only Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have eternal life." John 3:16
    God loves you so much and showed that by sending His Son to die for us so that we may inherit eternal life. We deserve hell but He gave us heaven through faith in Jesus. He took the punishment we deserved and by putting our faith in Him we can be saved. The Key To Eternal Life:

  3. You mentioned the foot tap but the importance of footwork and body positioning needed to be highlighted… These aren’t just ways to score as a unathletic player these are just high iq plays, Like how most defenders don’t really move the feet just use the arm to try to slow and match your pace and when you knock that arm down it essentially finishes the defender …once you get a defender on your hip he’s now a hostage… Great video..everything mentioned in the video is Trae young

  4. 9 God showed how much he loved us by sending his one and only Son into the world so that we might have eternal life through him. (‭‭‭1 John‬ ‭4‬‬:‭9‬ ‭NLT‬‬)

  5. i just wanna say that you one of the best coaches i ever saw in youtube
    even the little details that nobody sees in basketball
    you the one who still make a video about it and this why you got my respect man
    been improving my game lot since watching your videos
    thank you man

  6. No offense but a lot of why your change of speed works is because you're practically palming the ball. Hard to defend when defense reads a pick-up.

  7. im a fat hooper im not too fat but i am alot slower then other people and the things u have said in the video i know that already but i feel like people get used to it after a while and it becomes harder for me to score buckets can u help me out on that?

  8. coach why dont you try something new and talk about hoop gear like tapes, compression, shoes and all that

  9. Thanks for this video. This definitely helps undersized guards like me lol. It’s also cool to see a coach who can get a bucket 👍🏽

  10. Break down the game of a post player who was 5'10 since 6th grade and is now 6ft for the rest of his life but is now strong af

  11. Watch jj barea saw him on person he's like 5'7 not even close to his listed on nba site (6'0) he is underrated people always talks about nate robinson and isiah thomas when i comes small great players but no ones talks about this guy

  12. If speed kills instantly, shiftiness is like death by a thousand paper cuts

  13. Look up and scan the floor for your teammates with the pass, change of pace and ball fakes, and be a sniper from 3! 🎯 🏀

  14. I.Q. develop those instinctive moves, less dribble less mistake it all comes to practice exposing yourself to tough competition and watching NBA

  15. I really love the content and I have used this to get better at basketball but I do lack at on hall defense and being lowkey while locking down so it would be a big help if you did jose alvarado

  16. Really enjoyed this video! I've always been one of those players who thrived off defense way before coming into my own offensively. I liked what you said as far as change of speed especially. Growing up I never made it to any high school let alone jr. high level ball aside from being a equipment manager who was able to scrimmage at times. (Otherwise just playing pickup with friends who made it to that level, going further, etc.) I was a late bloomer and have been a little more on the athletic side, but there's times I go places where my athleticism pales, so I lose confidence in terms of what I can do on offense (aside from some post game haha.) Definitely going to try some of these things and hopefully get some offense going again. (Especially the attack off the hang dribble.)

  17. Cole, hit up Vancouver Canada sometime man 🙂
    I do a little after-school basketball training for kids who haven't played sports before, to help spur a love for the sport in the 1 or 2 kids who take it, and to help build confidence and self-esteem. But I think a scientific and broken down program like this for more advanced players would be awesome.

  18. I’m pretty athletic. I’m 19 6’3 i can windmill 360 and more with ease. But I know to play at the level like college and pro you ain’t going to be the most athletic player. So over the last year I been trying to become more Crafty and clever on the floor. Working on my overall game. To fit in a Role in college. This video I can say is very helpful ❤

  19. As an undersized guard my entire life with a 10 inch vert now reduced to 4 inches as I age, these are golden. Hang dribbles and off hand stuff, sooooo valuable
