Something I have always wanted to do is write a book. So I did. Super proud to release my first book: Basketball Analytics 101: Methods and Tools to Effectively Incorporate Basketball Analytics For Any Team

Besides working for their grounds crew while in college, I just do not like the brewers in any way. My dad, however, is a die hard brewers fan and he’s about to turn 70. It was pretty cool that he got to see one. I’m not going to lie.

Winning the World Series - Amazing… Being able to watch all season with my 85 year old dad - Priceless! 💙💛

Two Side Fast Break Film

Cool concept here from Queens‼️

Using your rim runner to seal and set a "Gortat" like screen on any drives in transition.

Two Side Fast Break Film

Getting your Rim Runner to the dunker spot if they don't get the ball

☑️ Keep the paint open for drives
☑️ Be ready for drop-offs at the rim
☑️ Draw the defense's attention

👍

My thoughts on the midrange shot from rough drafts of my book

[Romeo Travis @RomeTrav]

I’m tired of this convo. Mid range shots are the only way to win chips. Teams will protect the rim and 3 point line but if you can make a middy you can win at a high level

[CoachSketch @coachsketch]

I’m not trying to replace the whiteboard.

I love the whiteboard.

When I was an assistant for Coach @_AndyFitzgerald, he was a wizard with ATOs. Quick, clear, and everyone knew their job.

That’s the feel I want from Coach Sketch.

Draw it. Get 5 on the same page. Keep coaching.

The Value of a Rim Runner

☑️ take advantage of slow bigs
☑️ put pressure on the rim
☑️ draw defensive attention to the rim to open up the perimeter

Two Side Fast Break Film

The importance of sprinting to corners‼️

☑️ Create as much space as possible
☑️ Create situations where 1 defender has to try & guard 2 ("find the 2 on 1")
☑️ Give your wings/finishers room to attack the basket
☑️ Force defenders to make decisions
👍

[Andy Fitzgerald @_AndyFitzgerald]

Big fan of uphill DHO's, especially off a kick out or rifle pass.

Good option out of the corner if there's no catch-and-shoot.

Cut & Slide or Cut & Push Concept On Middle Drives

☑️ Opposite corner cuts (to dunker or oppo corner depending on philosophy)
☑️ All players use the "drive direction" rule
-drive left, move left
-drive right, move right
☑️ Good for spacing, maintaining gaps, & drive & kick
👍

@coachzhoops 35% as a team isn’t bad. What were they the year before?

[Andy Fitzgerald @_AndyFitzgerald]

Two Side Fast Break Film

The importance of slowing down if you are the trailer

✅ Gives teammates space to attack
✅ Trailer's defender often gets sucked in or stuck in help/the paint
✅ Gives time to space properly before flowing into any next actions

👍
