When most coaches think about shooting development, they picture a player standing still at the three-point line, perfecting their form through endless repetition. But here's what we heard recently that completely flipped that assumption: when asked what improved most through his elite shooting workouts, the answer wasn'

Seventy percent of kids quit organized sports by age thirteen. That's not a typo. Seven out of ten players who love basketball enough to join a league will walk away before high school. We heard this statistic discussed recently and it absolutely stopped us in our tracks. Not

Here's the uncomfortable truth: your team runs pick and roll dozens of times per game, yet most possessions end in contested jumpers or turnovers. We heard Alex Sama break down pick and roll concepts with his college prep team recently, and it really resonated with us — not because

A Clippers player went viral this week. Not for a highlight dunk or a clutch three-pointer. For standing up and cheering from the bench during a game. Think about that for a second. We've reached a point where basic teammate support — the absolute minimum of basketball culture — is

There's a moment most coaches know too well. You've drilled the play a hundred times. Drawn it up on the whiteboard. Walked through it at half speed. Then the game starts, and... nothing. Blank stares. Missed assignments. A turnover. We heard this frustration discussed recently and

Picture this: You're warming up your team military-style. Structured drills. Tight formations. Your voice echoing across the gym with corrections and commands. Then you look across the court and see... nobody. The opposing team has no coaches. Just kids playing. And here's the kicker: those kids

Your best player just caught the ball on the wing. Defender closes out hard. And then... hesitation. That split-second pause where they're processing, calculating, deciding. By the time they make a move, the help defender has rotated and the window has closed. We see this in games every

Your best player catches the ball on the wing with space. What happens next? If you're like most youth and recreational teams, they take two dribbles to "set up," pivot a few times scanning the floor, maybe call out a play. Three seconds have passed. The

If you've been using layup lines to work on your finishing, you're probably not getting much better. Because in a game, it's rare you're walking into wide open layups with no pressure behind you. That's why this game is different.

Here's something that'll blow your mind: most pickup games and rec leagues are won or lost within fifteen feet of the basket, and it's not because of layups. It's the free throw line extended—that invisible line stretching across the court—that

Let me say something that'll probably ruffle some feathers: European basketball might actually be playing chess while we're out here playing checkers. I know, I know — hear me out before you close this tab. We all love the high-flying dunks and the ankle-breaking crossovers that dominate

Here's something that'll blow your mind: most teams lose their offensive advantage before they even run a play. I've watched it happen a thousand times. Five players spread across the court, and somehow — somehow — three defenders are guarding all of them effectively. The problem?
