Awesome point and perspective. Too many times defensive guys are negative towards the offense and vice versa. This point of view creates more of a team mentality. 🗣️@CoachLGuidry

A great reminder for all who are in a competitive environment. Winning starts well before a final score is in the books. Winning is the result of the intentional work you put in and the consistency and commitment surrounding it. Winning is earned. Put the work in.

NBA assistant once told me... "If you want to know what NBA teams are running, watch the NBA. If you want to know what NBA teams will be running, watch FIBA."

🤔Beware the “cynical genius illusion” — the belief that people who are negative & critical are more intelligent. It’s not true. The better predictor of intelligence: Openness to new ideas & new perspectives. 🧠 atlassian.com/blog/communica…

RESPONDING TO MISTAKES "I'm letting the team down because I turned the ball over ... missed a shot ... blew a defensive assignment. No, you're letting the team down when it parlays into 4 or 5 possessions after that. Pick yourself up... You're playing a game that's imperfect."

KEEP OFF SEASON DEVELOPMENT SIMPLE Heading in to the off season soon, we’ll see a lot of players try to get better at everything and make their development more complex than it had to be. So much of development can be solved by focusing on shooting and playing. Within the

Zone defense at the youth ages harms player development: FACTS. Did you know that in Europe, most countries ban zones at younger age groups? This differs to the US, where some U8 and U10 teams are frequently playing zone.

Running a 2-3 zone in youth basketball stunts defensive and offensive growth, kills the fun, builds bad habits, and doesn’t teach kids how to actually play the game.

YOUTH ZONE Having coached youth for a while now, playing Zone is the ultimate cheat code. Players can’t pass far enough or shoot from distance enough to effectively beat a zone. To me, it’s a waste of time playing against a zone in youth basketball. Although I do understand

ONE OF THE BEST LESSONS YOU CAN TEACH YOUNG PLAYERS Not everyone gets the same amount out of an hour practice session. The players that give effort, are engaged, and bring good energy will get more out of a practice/training/game than everyone else. Stack those days, and you

I just don’t understand how each state hasn’t adopted a shot clock already. The shot clock is the ultimate player development tool at the grassroots/high school. The 24-second FIBA clock that is used at the lowest levels of basketball around the world is the reason players like

The problem is not shooting three-pointers. The problem is a societal unwillingness to modify the game to fit the needs of children: Lower hoops, smaller balls, shorter three-point line. The problem is the rush to the end. See Playmakers League, LLC 3️⃣ for more info: playmakersleague.com

Live Regressions I love using regressions because playing in 3 man game, 2 man game, and isos are all completely different. We use this 2v2 to 1v1 regression to have live reps without them being scripted.
