Practice
o
Practice with a purpose
o
If you let it happen in practice and it happens
in a game then it is the coaches fault
o
The end goal isn’t outworking everybody or
putting in more hours than everybody. It’s
about what you do with those hours
o
When you can’t decide whether to practice or not
one day, ask your seniors and captains for their input. It gives them ownership.
o
Every now and then do a 45 minute practice with
a purpose
o
Have players rank their teammates (best in
weight room, hardest worker, best teammate, etc…)

Play guys who are rested and ready to go as much
as possible

Press
o
All Belmont did was put man on ball and play
passing angles. Didn’t get beat deep.
o
If ball came into your man, then just turn him
as much as possible coming up court
