When I think of "Basketball IQ"- Intangibles like court awarness, court vision, knowledge of the game, ability to read defenses, ability to play and succeed within a system, and the ability to learn and understand plays come to mind. For the most part we tend to determine "Basketball IQ" on an individual level but my question to you is which team do think collectively has the best basketball IQ?

Please mention the team you picked in the poll and rate the top 5 players that you think have the highest IQ on that particular team to determine their individual IQ as well. You can rate them 1-5 (5 being the highest).

Here's mine:

Team: Kings (20/25)

Chris Webber- 5
Mike Bibby- 5
Brad Miller- 4
Doug Chrisitie- 3
Peja Stojakovic- 3

(try to be as objective as possible, eventhough though some may think I failed miserably to do so :D )

(Sorry I inadvertently left out the Lakers)

Unfortunately, the maximum entries allowed is 10. But stay tuned for the "teams with the lowest Basketball IQ" poll ;). Mind you, this thread didn't garner many replies so I'm pretty sure how the next will do :D
 
Just a suggestion...you could break it down into three polls, to cover all the teams.

;)

Only thing Webber is aware of is himself.
 
Dallas 147 @ Houston 156, 4/11/95
Mashburn (42), Kidd (38), McCloud (25), Drexler (29), Smith (29), Chilcutt (22), Brown (19).

29 pts, 11 rebs, 11 ast, 3 stls
-- Drexler

38 pts, 11 rebs, 10 ast, 3 stls
-- Kidd

Thats sick... thats crazier than last years (2003) Kings-Mavs series.
 
BOBCATS. As the old saying goes, it is better for people to think you are ignorant, wrather than opening your mouth and proving it.
