Graphology reports for top professional basketball prospects

Professional sports teams heavily rely on their draft picks to maintain top notch caliber performance. The draft picks of today, are the stars and superstars of tomorrow. Each team will invest a great deal of money for each drafted player. It is imperative to choose the best prospects, and not the worst ones. Sports teams need to maximize their draft picks, and that is where graphology comes into play.

At Tough Cases.Com, we give you a complete personal profile on your prospective draft choices, so you can make a better decision with your draft picks. You already have scouts working hard at analyzing these players. In addition, graphology will help you determine which of these prospects is likely to develop into a professional and which ones are not. We will inform you of the prospective players intelligence, physical drives, personal determination, emotional stability, goal achievements, will power, how he will react in pressure situations, and much more.

Certain basketball positions require different criteria, both mentally and physically, outside of athletic and basketball skills. Here is where we excel. We advise our basketball clients on the potential for NBA success for their draft prospects.

Handwriting analysis determining "mobile spatial skill"

Have you ever noticed that regardless of athleticism or outright basketball skills; certain players have what is called "court awareness" or "instincts for the game".

This is how "mobile spatial skill" will exhibit itself in the game of basketball. Because there is constant action; those who have this special court sense excel beyond the level of their own talent. It is the level of this rare trait, mobile spatial skill, which is the ability to "see things well that are in motion".

Those that have a strong ability for this trait; are those players with that uncanny sense that is labeled, "instincts", "court presence", "court awareness". These are the players who fill in passing lanes before the action occurs, they have a "nose for the ball" and excel at rebounding.

This ability was clearly demonstrated by the likes of Larry Bird, Magic Johnson, and John Stockton. Stockton is the perfect example of this skill, enabling him to become an NBA Hall of Famer; yet he does not have tremendous physical attributes.

Nowhere is this more important than with your point guard. This is that skill that enables a player to make the decisions of when to dribble, when to pass, who to pass to. In short, when a point guard; like Magic, Stockton, Kidd, or perhaps Payton as well, approach half court or in transition; it is this innate skill which enables them to succeed as the "quarterback" of the club.

Graphology used to determine "team chemistry"

It is nowhere more relevant to have excellent team chemistry as it is in basketball. We can identify personality and ego clashes with handwriting samples of your entire team. If you are interested in trading for a player, or anticipating that a draft choice is going to be starting; then you would want to know how well they will work together.

We can identify harmony as well as problem issues which are likely to crop up. Sometimes, you may have "blamers" on your team which create difficulties when you are losing; or too many arrogant players, who put themselves above the team spirit and cause unrest, or you may lack enough "leaders" and those who want the ball in clutch time.

So besides determining the talent of your prospective draft choices; you can use our service to identify the new team chemistry.

Draft prospects that are mature and coachable

Basketball seems to have more than their share of "head cases". These young men are immature, irresponsible, difficult to coach, and have a bloated ego. They may have enormous talent, but are likely to not make the most out of it. These players are the ones that cause problems with other team members and create dissention with the club. Latrell Sprewell, and Allen Iverson are excellent examples.

Their negative qualities show through in their handwriting. We will warn you of all these "problem" prospects, which will enable you to choose someone who is going to be more productive, even though he is less talented.
