COACHES TAKE NOTES. Phil Jackson was a GREAT coach BECAUSE he knew his players/how to manage personalities. He has extremely high EQ. Good X’s & O’s but his EQ is his strength. Most coaches think it’s about basketball. ITS NOT. RELATE to your players 2 maximize their abilities.

COACHES/TRAINERS👀👀 Can we stop boxing young players in by telling them the “Right” way to finish. There is no “right” way, there are multiple ways. Develop kids with the ability to jump off the effective foot, not the “correct” foot.

Coaches/Trainers ✍🏻✍🏻 PLEASE STOP telling players to pound the basketball when shooting a 1-2 PULL-UP . On paper this makes sense, but its actually slower. The ball comes up too quickly and it throws your timing off because your feet are not in a position to shoot.

🔥🏀 Want to be faster on the court? Try catching in a split stance! 🤯 When you catch the ball in a split stance, your body is already in a position to move quickly in any direction. Instead of catching the ball and then having to take a step to get into a good position.

#HoopStudy 🎒🎒Game Scenarios SPNR ball screen refusal. ✍🏻✍🏻✍🏻Coming off the screen letting the on-ball defender know the screen is coming is a great action to force the defender to “take action”. Typically they’ll look or change their stance giving you an attack angle.

Wanna see a BAD coach? Look at the sideline when their player makes a mistake. A BAD coach is overly animated based off of emotions/insecurity. Makes a scene to show everyone it’s the PLAYERS fault. It’s a compete lack of emotional intelligence.

Instead of hacking down on ball try swiping up. This not only gives you a better chance at popping the ball up out of the offense’s hands, but also keeps you on balance and in a good guarding stance.
