Most practices are built around drills.
Drills can be easy to run and look good.


Build practice around problems from the last game/practice. Then pick the drills that fix them.

The most efficient way to create space is by stopping.

If you can stop quickly, the defense is forced to guess.

Coaches want to defend the three.
So they extend and run shooters off the line.


Every extension opens a driving lane. Know which of the two you'd rather give up.

Games can be lost in transition.


Coaches say "get back."
Getting back isn't the only job.

Stopping the ball is. Somebody has to step up early.

You have a move and a counter...

But what's the 3rd option?

Players need to be able to make a move and then bail on it if they need to.
