Darius Miles...
Better now, but his first few years, he relied purely on athleticism.

Ben Gordon? what haha...He is one of the best 4th quarter scores in the game..Just because he was cold doesn't mean he has a low IQ..Shooters are told tokeep shooting...Plus that's the coaches' choice to bench him, not him....

a strong case against the allegation of having a low bball iq? yes. +27 on the court in the second round 2 of the playoffs in game 2. but hey,I guess any idiot could accomplish that.
sadly, no they won't. but i'm hopeful that you're right. too many people don't actually watch basketball, they just like to talkabout it like they do.
and smh at whoever mentioned ben gordon. are you kidding?

1. Samuel Dalembert - has atleast 2 of the dumbest goaltends that you will ever see per game, and I really do think if you asked the guy he would tell youhe's the best center in the league
2. Marcus Camby - everybody talks about Iverson leaving helping Denver, but this dude would always grab a rebound and instead of giving an outlet pass to thepoint he would just jet down the floor trying to throw a no look pass or a finger-roll with somebody standing right in front of him
3. Rodney Carney - should be on the track not on the basketball court
4. Gerald Green - he doesn't study game tape, he studies Youtube highlights
5. Kwame Brown - no explanation needed

Overall, I actually think J.R. has a pretty decent feel for the game. He takes bad shots, but he also makes bad shots. I think he just needs to learn to attackthe paint when the J is not falling. After you go 0 - 6 from three, it is not the time to dribble around and rifle another bomb; instead, he should use histremendous athleticism to make a move towards the paint. Or, @!!! just pass the rock. He has Carmelo, Chauncey, and Nene on the squad.

Of course he does! He's able to play as a point forward. He's just got a weak heart when it matters lol (playoffs/crunch time/4th quarterft's)

^ he actually has a very high iq. its just he doesnt really show up during big gms, and in his early yrs, he would get into trouble and his mind was on weedrather the gm.
if you watched him when he was on the clippers and heat he was running the pt forward position

Can someone "define" a basketball IQ for me?
Is it all, knowing when to shoot, pass, or not go up for a block
I think having a high basketball iq is best described as playing high percentage basketball. Always looking to get the best possible shot on offense, usingcourt position in an attempt to always tying to put the other team in a disadvantage, and using your ability to put your team/teammates in a better position tosucceed. Obviously not turning the ball over would go into that but teams need to have risk takers on their team to help give them a spark - so guys like (imo)Josh Smith (the lowest i've seen) do have low bball iq but teams don't/shouldn't need them for their iq.
High iq bball example? Jason Kidd has the highest bball iq i've ever seen.

i'd say jamal crawford even though i love his crossovers.. he always made bad decisions on his shot selection.. he needed somebody to tell him what to do..he'd be lost without coaches or mentors on the court.. i feel bad for this guy.. i always like this guy..

QFT on this one. Anyone that's watched Nuggets games this year know that JR may make the occasional dumb play but his improved decision makingskills is one of the main reasons the Nuggets are doing so well.Originally Posted by denverairforce

with respect to Odom I dont necessarily think its a low IQ but rather his mind is just not in the game sometimes. like mentally dude is somewhere in his cribrelaxing while his physical body is just running around in the staples center

he does that a lot more now. people gotta watch the games before they comment on dude.
some of the names people are throwing out are just plain ridiculous right now. I think maybe we need a thread on lowest NT member IQ.
now kenyon martin has a low iq? oh man...
