Sorry I suck at communicating .. Yes we agree, but what I meant was that most people use it as a quality and not a quantity regardless of what "IQ" actually means. Since most people use it as a quality and not a number/mathematical measure of actual intelligence, no one really made up any stat.sprint2thecup wrote:jstnw89 wrote:How can it be a made up stat?

that's exactly my point.
Intelligence Quotient (IQ) IS quantifiable. there is an examination that produces a quotient such as 98 or 112. if you cannot get that quotient, then it's NOT an IQ.
IQ has a correlating number, always.

Saying BB IQ is just another way of subjectively talking about how smart you think a player is.
It not made up. I know DUMB people who can ball. See lanes, see openings, make the right pass and the right time. Genius on the court. Dumb in class. It's absolutely not made up
then what examination gives us the quotient? show me how the quotient in basketball IQ is configured.

2. A degree or amount of a specified quality or characteristic: "an increase in our cynicism quotient".
I would say quotient by the second definition is fine when referring to bball IQ.

so who has the higher basketball IQ, nash or lebron? it's completely subjective, but people state it like it's not.
basketball IQ does not exist. basketball intelligence yes.

Right so you're a fundamentalist who has trouble with nuance.
People say "BBIQ" because it's quick and easy to say. They mean "basketball intelligence"
